My partner and I stayed in Yan’s flat for one whole month in September 2014. We had just moved down to London from Manchester and used the flat as our temporary home while we were looking for our own place.

We absolutely loved it!

All its rooms (lounge, bedroom, kitchen, bathroom) are *really* spacious, comfortable and full of character, which makes spending time in the flat a truly enjoyable, relaxing and rewarding experience especially at the end of a long day spent walking the busy streets of London. One of its strongest points has to be the home cinema projector, which we used on more than one occasion to watch films or even TV while chilling out in the lounge.

The neighbourhood is also very welcoming and has a very strong community feeling. The high street is vibrant and colourful without ever becoming annoyingly busy or noisy. There are many good and affordable shops and restaurants, which are always open so you can never run out of anything!

There are also many and reliable options for getting into central London and other areas (buses, trains, tube, overground).

Last but not least, Yan is an excellent host who made sure we had a good stay and made us feel welcome even when he was not there.

Overall, we would definitely recommend this flat to other people!
