There are so many wonderful things to say about Gabriela, about the neighborhood, about how well she and her father-in-law treated us, and about our overall experience that I will certainly run out of room. Gabriela was so clear, and attentive -- it was sort of amazing given that she was in Greece and we were in Italy, France, and London when we were communicating. She answered all questions and concerns IMMEDIATELY. Her father-in-law lives on site and he was beyond kind to us -- I can't thank him enough for all of his help, right down to dealing with a lost cabbie. Amazing. As to the neighborhood there simply is no better place to stay in all of London. We walked everywhere -- the Tate and Globe are practically around the corner and the apartment is in the center of the London universe. The tube is close by, but hardly necessary because you can walk everywhere. There are lovely restaurants out the front door -- we particularly loved the Indian place less than a block away and the funky little breakfast place that turns into a Turkish restaurant at night right across the street. The best breakfast place in London is a couple of blocks away, but get there early -- we arrived as they were unlocking the building and their was a line out the door by the time we finished breakfast. The apartment itself is funky and kind of artsy -- they are clearly interesting people and this is their real home. The bathroom is unusual (the toilet is in the shower) but only if you are not accustom to traveling outside of the US, it was actually kind of cool and it made for a very clean bathroom. The rooftop garden is a great place for morning tea or a sunset glass of wine. Seriously, get this place -- it is affordable, relatively large, comfortable, and you will be treated like gold by your host. We will never stay anywhere else when we visit London. Thank you so much Gabriela and Philip, you made us feel so welcome and made our stay so enjoyable. See you next time we are in the UK!
