Unique stay
Pros:

The property is very stylish, with a grand central courtyard, which is covered, so you can sit down there in all weathers.
Convenient on-site parking.
Only 10-15 minute walk, or 3 minute scooter ride to New Regent St restaurants.

Cons:

The TV position isn't ideal for watching from the bed, but it's the only place for it, realistically. The light above the kitchen bench had a touch sensor which has a blue light which lights up the bedroom, and I needed to cover it to sleep. The window looked out to a neighboring wall but it had been cleverly utilised by the painting of a mural and cool lighting.
