Home away from home

Kaybz Australia
Review Submitted: November 20, 2009 Date of Stay: November 2009
Lovely apartment, equiped with everything you need for short or long term stay in residential London. Transport to and from the city was easy but a little time consuming but expected for the area. Good selection of shops nearby and overall would recommend to anyone.
Owner's Response: To clarify: Travel times* by tube from Finsbury Park station to key destinations are as follows:- Kings Cross (8 mins); Oxford Circus (13 mins); Victoria (16 mins); Leicester Square (16 min); Piccadilly Circus (18 minutes); Hyde Park (21 mins); Knightsbridge (21 mins); Liverpool Street (26 mins by tube or 12 minutes by train); Paddington (26 minutes) (*all times independently cited). The flat is a 10 minute walk from the station or 4 minutes by bike (a bike is available on request). There is a 24 hour bus route from the end of the road to Kings X and Trafalgar Square (25 minutes every 7 minutes during day). More information on transport links and routes will be provided upon enquiry.

London holidays in style

Ivonna Riga/Berlin
Review Submitted: October 23, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
It was a pleasure to spend London holidays at this flat. Very close to the central London, Camden town; good transport connections (buses,inclouding night route, tube). The area of North-East London gives a very authentic feeling of the city; this place will be appreciated by those who are looking for something more beyond the traditional tourism.
The flat itself is very nice, originally designed, with an upper floor terrace and a great view from it.
Agent Max was very nice and helpful, thanks for the stay. Next time when in London we will stay there again :)

A great Place to stay

Lynda2 Southport England
Review Submitted: April 11, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2008
My Son and his friend obtained a work placement in London, as they were both only 19 I was very concerned about booking the right accommodation. No need to have worried! They stayed for 2 weeks at the penthouse and loved every minute they were there.It was very clean and well equipped. The Flat had everything you could possible need. The owner was a great help and support to the boys. I would highly recommend this flat. Everthing was perfect.

Excellent Stay

Sandra1 Germany
Review Submitted: April 6, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
I spent almost four weeks in this cozy, beautiful flat which felt like home from the very first minute. The host, who lives downstairs, was very supportive and tried to make the stay as convenient as possible (even flowers were there at the first day). It is a perfect place for a longer professional stay, offering working facilities (wlan, desk, et al.) which you wouldn't find in a Bed & Breakfast. But also for short term I would always recommend it as it is placed very quiet but central. The area is a very normal one, which I found very relaxing after days of tourist sight seeing.
So in short, when visiting London again I would always and definitely come back.
