Lovely little flat | We really enjoyed this apartment. Covent Garden is centrally located for sightseeing and stays up later than the rest of London. The apartment is clean, comfortable, and really cute--it feels like a home, not a rental. (I'm going to copy the way they hung the mirrors...) Nice strong shower and firm bed, cozy couch. Even though it's small, there's still plenty of room to flop down with a book or eat a meal--we highly recommend getting gourmet groceries at Marks & Spencer Food Hall near the tube station. The owners are really great and attend to your every need. Such a great deal, especially when compared to the disgusting hotel room you would get for the same amount of money. |

Fantastic Flat for Sightseeing | I just spend 9 nights here and it was excellent. The apartment is cute, clean, bigger than I would have thought, and has everything you could possibly need--all the details are considered, and the owner returns calls and emails promptly. The location, near Great Portland Street tube, is great for shopping at Oxford/Regent/Carnaby Streets and for walking in Regent's Park. Marleybone High Street and Charlotte Street are two cute neighborhoods near by, and there's a fancy Italian market, a Pret sandwhich shop, and a Starbucks on the next block. We wound up spending a lot of time in the immediate area, it was so charming. It's really nice to have such an inviting living/dining area if you like to eat some meals at home, or just stay home and watch telly when you can't handle the London crowds anymore. There is a tiny bit of street noise in the bedroom, but we drowned it out with a fan and slept soundly. It's actually a pretty quiet area considering how central it is. I would recommend this flat to anyone--it's so much nicer than a hotel, and a better value. |
