We didn't get to meet our host during our stay but she left check-in instructions which was easy. Location is 15min walk to the tube station and 3 min walk to a bus stop. If you want to see the main central attractions itll take you around 45mins by transit. You will hear planes fly by which can be loud but we didn't mind it. We had our own key to the house but theres no lock to our bedroom. There were a lot of amenities available as mentioned but we didn't find a hairdryer and we weren't sure if we had our own towesl. There were towels inside the drawers but it looked like someone's belongings, so we just used our own towel. Great place to stay, very cute and colorful.
