If you’re looking for a smart London crash pad close to public transport, this studio in Finsbury Park is it. Located along a quiet residential street, yet just a four-minute walk from Finsbury Park Underground Station, you’ve got the best of both worlds here. It’s worth noting that, being a studio, the living and kitchen area is compact, but the serviced apartment’s perks make up for that. Your host can help arrange airport transfers and street parking (for an additional fee), and the luggage storage set-up will come in handy.

Home truths:
*This studio is located on the first floor and you’ll need to climb some stairs.
*You’ll use a keyless entry system for check-in. Alternatively, physical keys can be arranged for lockbox collection upon request.
*There’s a communal washer/dryer that you’re welcome to use.
*Needless to say, all bed sheets and towels are professionally dry cleaned here, but the sheets won’t be ironed. Not a dealbreaker, but worth noting.
*Compared to the home's interiors, the building’s exteriors feel a tad tired in places.
