12-Day HOLIDAY IN LONDON
Review Submitted: September 8, 2009
Date of Stay: August 2009
The great stuff first - the BEST location in London if you like theatre, restaurants, shopping, night life - within 2 to 5 minutes walking distance of many theatres, museums, Covent Garden, Leicester Square, Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square. I could go on and on.
Very updated apartment - stainless steel kitchen with great appliances - fantastic living room with comfy furniture, LCD TV - bathroom had the most relaxing huge shower - bedroom was smallish but had a comfortable queen-size bed, LCD TV & plenty of storage. But the terrace was the ultimate - the doors leading to the terrace opened fully to let cool breezes in (a must for summer travel) and the large terrace with beautiful foliage was a relaxing oasis.
On the down side, the 4-story walkup was tough on our old legs especially with our luggage (but thank God Robert was there to help us). We thought a door between the living and bedroom areas would have been better than the curtain especially for sound. There were two nights that neighbouring parties lasted long into the night and were a little too loud. But these are very minor complaints.
Of the 8 stays and 7 apartments we had in London, this topped them all. If we were younger, it would have been perfect. We only had to call once for help (when we locked ourselves out) and our host was there in no time to assist us.
Overall - we would say our London Holiday was a great hit!
