I'm returning to London after 18 months away tomorrow, and am really struggling to find a room to rent:

within 45 minutes of Covent Garden
about £450/month max

Has anyone got one?

Help!

For just a room that should be doable, I've started to use AirB&B instead of hotels and had some great digs really central to Holborn / Russel Sq for similar money

You could head North... pick somewhere like St Albans?

Problem is that price is student budget so high competition... and those shared properties don't want non-students or they have to pay council tax?

I used to use moveflat.com and a quick look shows there are about 10 places across London on there for your budget.
