I traveled with my husband and 8 and 11 year old boys, so we needed space and require a refrigerator. The compromise is being outside of London proper (on a budget).
Chuma's photos of the flat do not do it justice. It is roomy, light and airy and has EVERYTHING you need. I absolutely loved that each sink had hand soap, there was shampoo and body wash, paper towels, toilet paper, dish soap, detergent - I didn't have to buy anything for just three nights. HUGE help.
One of my other things with European flats are the bathrooms... they're generally old. Chuma has TWO new bathrooms. It was amazing to come back to the apt after a long day out and take a good shower.
Beds were firm and comfortable, laundry machine was very handy, wifi was perfect, the balcony was an added bonus.
Chuma is quick to respond and check in/check out instructions were super easy and straight forward.
At 9am, it was an hour and 10 mins from LHR. At 5am, it was about 35 mins.
From the flat, you walk 5-10 mins to the Finchley Station to catch the Jubilee line and that will connect you to basically anywhere in London. It's about five stops straight to Westminster (Big Ben, Parliament, Westminster Abbey).
I would 100% stay here again! Thank you, Chuma!
