Here's the guide to the city that hostelworld sends to us.
We're leaving Houston on the 11th, British Airways flight 2024, non-stop to London's Gatwick airport. Here's a picture of the cabin for the flight to London. Anyway, we get to London via Gatwick airport at about 7am in London.
It'll probably take about an hour to clear customs, and we can take a bus, and the tube (underground railroad) to Ace Hotel.
The plan right now is to take the tube there, which should take about an hour and we only have to make one transfer, and walk about 5 minutes from the last stop to the hostel. There I hope that we can drop off our luggage, as their check-in time is actually 2pm. I've already contacted them about leaving stuff there and they said they could accomodate as long as it's not a lot of luggage. In the event that they can't store our stuff there, we'll figure something out. I'm not going to carry around my luggage for 7 hours waiting for my room to be ready :P
We are staying in the area known as London's West End. If you're into the culture aspect of this trip, there's a world-famous theatre there as well as good music around.
