This is a great place to stay if you're taking a proactive vacation. The place is very homey, and the room is a decent size with plenty of room. Karine was very friendly and made me feel comfortable as soon as I arrived. Her dog Flora was also a gracious host. She met me at the door almost every time with a smile. The area was quiet and safe. There were times when I needed to walk back to the flat late at night, and not once did I feel unsafe. It is a straight, 10-minute walk to the nearest tube station (Queen's Park). I highly recommend staying here, and it is definitely a place that I would come back to.
