Three of us stayed for the month of May 2009 at Endsleigh Court
Apartments on Woburn Place, just off Russell Square and very near the
British Museum. It was two blocks from Euston Station where a small
Marks and Spencer grocery store provided everything we needed for
cooking in and avoiding the exorbitant restaurant prices. We had a
comfortable room with small kitchen and private bath for $120 a day
total for the three of us. If you choose this, arrange for an apartment
that does not face the street, to avoid the street noises.
