My sister and I had a lovely stay at Jo and Ivan's flat. It is in a quiet, leafy street but just minutes from great restaurants and public transport options.
The space: Extremely stylish, light and airy space with very comfy beds and two modern bathrooms. I slept upstairs and loved the loft space. We really appreciated the coffee, tea, cereal, milk and biscuits which meant we didn't have to rush out on our first morning. There are quite steepish stairs inside the building though which may not suit some people.
The hosts: Very clear communication about directions, expectations and local recommendations
Nearby: It is about 10 minutes walk to Kings Cross train station and there were buses close by as well. However it is still walking distance to the city (about 20 minutes to Hyde Park). We had a great brunch at 'Bills' at the end of the street, loved the gelato at Messina and had an amazing dinner at Red Lantern in Riley St. We didn't even scratch the surface of all the great shopping and food options close by.
I highly recommend this flat. Thank you Jo and Ivan!
