Perfect Location

It was a pleasure working with Nick, Ed and the staff at "A Place Like Home". Nick handled a few up-front issues efficiently, arranged a private car from Heathrow, and answered all our questions quickly. This neighborhood is perfect with access to two tube stops, lots of restaurants and quality food shops. The flat is good size, has a comfortable bed and and is very quiet all day and night. Some upgrades in kitchen equipment might make it even better.
