The hosts were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The room was somewhat small, but well equipped (closet space, small fridge). I had total freedom to come and go as I pleased, and the host helped me arrange transportation to the airport. The location is fine, just a few blocks from beautiful Hampstead Heath. I would have enjoyed being within easy walking distance of a tube stop, but there was a bus stop just a block away, so that wasn't bad. Bus to tube usually took 15 minutes or so. The price of the room makes the slightly longer commute totally worth it! I would return again, no question.
