Thanks for having us stay at your amazing flat. Your prices really make it affordable for South Africans,
as you know the rand is very bad especially at the moment - so thank you!
Kind regards

Vacation in London

Lisa's Family Michigan, USA
Review Submitted: July 24, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
This was an excellent place to stay. Close to the tube, train and bus stops. Great ethnic restaurants nearby, and walking distance to a nice park. Close to a small grocery and the Olympia convention center is very near as well.

The flat was comfortable, clean and we had a great cross breeze every night.
It is also very easy to get to from Gatwick airport.

The owners were friendly and helpful. We would recommend this place to a friend or stay again when we return to London.

Review Submitted: March 14, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2007
Modern, stylish apartment, very convenient location for transports, bus 2 min and tube 5 min walk, yet in a nice, safe, clean and quiet residential area. You can enjoy a lazy breakfast in the garden or inside, by the bay window, watching people rushing to work. You have a choice of restaurants near by. The owner, is very, very helpful and friendly. I really recommend it, you won't be disappointed. My friends have been there too and they are as much enthusiastic as myself. I'll definetly go back whenever I can.
