Location near Kings Cross - about a 15min walk, but there are bus stops along the way that could drop you off so your walk would be shortened to 3 minutes. I would say that it takes approx. 35-40 minutes to get to the typical London spots to visit. Playground and basketball courts across the street. Fit our family of 5 - 2 adults, 3 kids (10,12,14) well for a 2 week stay. Sufficient kitchenware for 5, but dishes would definitely get tight with 7 or 8 people. Washer/dryer combo worked great.Beds and bedding were comfortable. A variety of pillows (soft, firm, thin, thick, etc) allowing 2 per person.Internet was fast and reliable during our stay. Luke was responsive to messages.Thanks for a great place to stay while we were in London!
