These are apartment hotels and I stay in them 2 times a year, when I visit my daughter sometimes for months or few weeks Presidental Apartments was by far the best. Staff on 24 hours, fully stocked room with everything you need, smaller shops close by and Big Tesco for a big shop should you need a variety of groceries. Housekeeping services every day and the gem of the hotel is Michael who is the concierge/ door man. This is a super safe area and a 3 mins walk from tube station. You can be in central London in as little as 20 mins. Highly recommend

COVID-19 may have changed how we travel, but it hasn't dampened our eagerness for exploring. Here are a few tips on how to cope with the new challenges of travelling:
  • Look into the rules and restrictions in both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check before you book your flight.
  • When you go through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be required to briefly lower it for identification purposes. Those who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied boarding.
  • Instead of handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, position it directly on the reader yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. This will need to be removed for screening.
  • To reduce handling during screening, place items such as your phone, coins and keys into your carry-on rather than the bins.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
