The house was very clean and welcoming, located in a multicultural area and well connected by public transport and the metro. We had a great stay, also thanks to Andy, the helpful and friendly host. One suggestion: it might be better to use one of the rooms as a shared space to spend time together, rather than using all the rooms for sleeping.

    We have stayed all over UK in private homes (B&B) so many times, but never have we felt so welcome as with Iuliana. She was wonderful and extremely generous, helpful and we had a great time with her and the five cats. We will stay there again next time we go to London. It was very centrally situated, with the bus right outside and the tube 5 minutes away. Also a nice breakfast cafe up the street. Things could not be better.
