Melanie’s place was comfortable, neat and very clean. It’s on the top floor of a typically English house. Spacious enough for the two of us plus one toddler. The bathroom is big enough for an average-sized person and nicely furnished. We had the chance to feel really British there as the tub and the sink have separate taps for cold and hot water 😉
The location of the place is very convenient. About 6-8 minutes walk to the tube and buses, and there are also a few shops, cafes and pubs nearby. The Thames is just around the corner (literally!) which was perfect as we like long walks by the river. Although the place is also close to some kind of main arterial road, at night it was quiet enough to sleep without any problems. The traffic wasn’t bothering us.
As a host, Melanie is very nice, friendly and extremely helpful. She provided us with everything we needed. To be honest, our experience was so good that we regretted we had to leave after only a few days.
