My very first Airbnb, a one to set the standards for sure.
The layout of the home is similar to a small bed and breakfast, with enough privacy for guests and hosts alike.
Leah went out of her way to accommodate our unusual schedule (we flew in at an odd time) and was kind enough to show us around the home and explain everything right away.
The guest kitchenette in the basement is so charming and had everything we could possibly need (lots of fridge space and the best toaster I’ve ever used!)
The bathroom has a beautiful shower which was a lifesaver after a long day of traveling.
My favorite part was definitely the original wood floors. They’re absolutely stunning and I never heard other guests moving around, though I had ear plugs in.
The bedroom was adorable and had a handy guide in the desk drawer so I could review the rules and expectations.
The home is secured by a gate (and some high-tech security measures as well) and the location was perfect, roughly a block from the underground (well, overground technically). I was so impressed by the short commute time to pretty much anywhere in London.
In addition, we were near several lovely restaurants and coffee shops (I recommend the Blackbird and Mama Dough). There is also a small Tesco on the way, which was a lifesaver. I’m talking 5 minute walk to pretty much anything a person could need, food-wise.
I highly suggest staying here
