The listing description was accurate. I got an amended approval after date shifts etc. Alexandra was pleasant on the phone and routinely welcoming upon my arrival. Place resembles a nice hotel that just offers accommodation only. No food, no laundry (not even ironing), little interaction with host and little opportunity to interact with other guests.

But...

For a business person on a short trip to London to do some consulting or short term work, this would be a competitive alternative to an expensive hotel in town. This plus what is spent on food and laundry would still be more competitive than any decent hotel in London. I did get to meet (by accident) some of the family. Very pleasant guys.
