I stayed in Susan's place for two weeks. The place is a bit far from the tube (Shepard's Bush) but there is a 94 bus which can take you to central London up to Piccadilly Circus through the Oxford Street. It was convenient for my return trips. The neighborhood is quite safe, the local Sainsbury works until 11 pm which is good for a late snack. There are two lovely cats guarding the house))) My room was small but cosy, with a comfortable bed. It was a bit hot in the room when the weather was hot. Overall, it was a good, quiet stay!
