Best place to stay in London

Beverley and Barry are wonderful hosts and helped me so much. I live in Dundee Scotland and didn't know my way on public transport. I had to get into central London for a very important meeting, Beverley took me to the local railway station made sure I had the correct travel card and put me on the train. Thanks Beverley😊. The room was spotless and beautifully decorated and a lovely bed. I just wish I could have stayed longer to explore the beautiful area they live in. No more soleless hotels for me, next time I'm in London I'm staying with them.

We are very happy to have been hosted here. Our hosts were fantastic, taking care of us, and sharing experiences (fluent english). Everything very natural..good flow!

Very good Location, in the center.. better to take a taxi, since this is a little street coming from a little street as well.
