Phyillis’ place was great for my 10-week stay in London. The location is great, with supermarkets, pubs, coffee shops, a tube station and overground station all within walking distance, making it easy to get around London. It is easy to get to and from both Heathrow and Gatwick via public transport. The house is on a quiet street. The room is on the top level of the house with access to your own bathroom on the same level which provides great privacy.
Phillis was a terrific host, making me feel at home and allowing use of the kitchen, washing machine and small fridge space. She promptly communicated any changes to her schedule regarding the use of the house, e.g., for tutoring or if grandkids were visiting, to ensure no surprises and a smooth stay. She was also very flexible and accommodating. Her dog, Frieda was lovely and it was great to have her greet me when I walked in the door each evening, it certainly helped me cope with missing my own dog during my stay.
I look forward to staying when I am next in London. Thank you, Phyllis and Freida.
