Malika is a kind person and welcoming host! The LED fireplace and skylight window make for a cozy ambiance and nice lookout. As a first-time solo female traveler I felt completely safe navigating the streets around Malika's home at night. Tesco, a great food market for healthy and traditional British eats is a 36 minute round-trip walk and I felt safe undertaking it. There is also Lee's Laundrette nearby which I found helpful for doing my laundry. Even though the description states the airbnb is located in a commuter's town - as this was my first trip to London - I didn't realize before I booked that Lee is a bit far from tourist destinations, but this detail may not matter to you depending on your goals. For example, Tower Bridge is 30 minutes away.
