Definitely a budget place to stay but the host was very nice and welcoming. The area has lots of buses to get into the city, but otherwise there's not a huge amount nearby when it comes to restaurants etc. Probably good for a cheap trip to London; I was only there for one night as I had another trip delayed by a day and I needed to stay in North London! I didn't feel hugely safe walking around as a female travelling solo. But the host was great and the room / bathroom facilities were functional.
