This was very helpful (for me), thanks. Another question, though. If it's about 30 minutes door-to-door to Holborn, how about to (the) London Bridge (tube stop)? My last stay in London was in St. Pauls, where the wait for the 17 bus was longer than the ride to the station. Is Maida Vale really that much further away?
