Des was an absolutely incredible host, kind, welcoming, responsive. He gave me lots of local recommendations.
The apartment was actually a little bigger than I expected (yes small as des rebued but not as small as I had imagined) and I loved the secret garden feel. I am a large man at 6"5 so I had to lay diagonally on the bed but it was quite comfortable.
Very close to a train station that could get me anywhere I wanted in London with ease.
The ONLY "negative" thing I will say is the stairs were narrow and steep so if you struggle with stairs maybe not the best place for you.
Highly recommend and if I ever come back to London I know exactly where I will be staying.
