* St. Giles-in-the-Fields church adjacent. 900 years of Londoners in cemetery. Including 1665 plague victims, Andrew Marvell, author of “To My Coy Mistress”, most seductive poem of all time

Perfect location- close to several different underground stations. Small apartment for our family of 5 but we didn’t spend much time in the apartment so location was the most important factor for us. Helpful, very detailed binder with all apartment & neighborhood info.

Cozy apartment near lots of restaurants and theaters. For a relatively large group of parents and small kids, worked out well. Clothes washer and dryer was excellent.

David's place is so cool! Covent Garden is quite the hubbub, but the flat is far enough off to be very still at night. Quite walkable, close to everything on the West side -- I walked up to Camden Town one day, a couple miles but so pleasant: the great parks and architecture along the route. David's decor is certainly unique, and his library is omnivorous and thought-provoking. (He's clearly an interesting character)' The kitchen's as well-stocked as my home, and I entertain quite a lot. Also want to point out that we had a medical issue, and he responded quickly to a request -- even though he was in SF, a 9-hr difference. Overall, a perfect place to stay when you're in London.

Great flat in a fantastic part of London! Located on a quiet street yet steps away from Covent Garden and several Underground stations, this flat helped make our long weekend in London an amazing stay. We’ll be back to London before long and will certainly hope to stay again!!
