The apartment was nice, clean and well equipped - nice suprise was a coffee machine. It is close to sightseeing spots, bus and metro stops, as well as a Tesco extra and Sainsbury's. There are lots of places nearby where you can grab something to eat. The owners provided all the information needed to check-in and check-out. Self chek-in and out was highly appreciated.

Neighbourhood information

Our apartments are quite possibly situated in the best part of London! We have so many repeat guests that love to walk around the City, wake up and go and see the Tower of London each day while taking in Tower Bridge and also The River Thames. Sit and relax and look at the super yachts in St. Katharines Dock or take something more demanding like the TATE Modern. Kids will love the HMS Belfast and the multiple free events just across the river at More London are hard to beat. Enjoy shopping then you have London's oldest markets with Borough Market and Petticoat Lane not forgetting Stratford Shopping Centre with all top brand fashions. If you are here to simply work, then why not have your office on your doorstep as we are in Zone 1 where apartments are hard to come by! Dining can suite all types of budgets, thats why its best to stay in the City and not the suburbs!
