FANTASTIC LOCATION
* V centre of London. Many of London’s best sights, restaurants, etc just a short, lovely walk away
* Most theatres within five minute easy stroll
* Street outside, St. Giles High Street, is 2,000 years old main road into London
* 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
* Bells of St. Giles church regularly pealed at dusk or weekends-wonderful sound
* Former public execution site 200 yards away
* At nice pub next door (“The Angel”), condemned given “St Giles Bowl” of alcohol—origin of “one for the road”
* Internet search for “St Giles London” reveals fascinating history

QUIET, SLEEP WITH WINDOWS OPEN
* V quiet
* Extremely unusual in central London, where emergency service sirens and rubbish pickups penetrate double-glazing throughout the night
* All but the lightest of sleepers can leave windows open and sleep soundly

COVID CLEANING & PROTECTION
* Deploy enhanced cleaning & protective measures for tenants, staff. Err on safety side while Covid understanding still evolving: bear with us if/when seems excessive
* Cleaning, maintenance, property management staff follow Airbnb requirements. Search for "Airbnb cleaning handbook"
* When interacting with our staff, everyone must wear mask or face covering, maintain 6 feet social distance; when in apartment together, windows must be open

SMALL PRINT
* Bathroom/toilet accessed through bedroom
* Crowded with more than 2 guests: during day usually best to put airbed (s) aside, fold up sofabed
* As photos illustrate, private residence with personal photos on wall, books on shelves. My clothing and things of value are stored out of your way
