I very much enjoyed my stay in the room, and much prefer it to a hotel room. One ought to bear in mind that the room, while it has an ensuite bathroom, is very much part of a townhouse. This means that one doesn't have the privacy of a hotel room--the kitchen area is common to all house guests, and there's a good chance one may hear another tenant walking on the floor above. The location was great, and there's easy access to all of the city's public transport (10-15 min walks to tube stations). If one is ok with shared common areas, and an awareness of other house guests, this option provides a sense of living like a local, which I valued very much.
