If Ronda's place is available, seriously don't hesitate and just book it now. That's what we did and we are so happy for it! Ronda went above and beyond to make our stay the easiest and best possible time she could, from the moment we booked it until the moment we left. You are sent a welcome package when you first book, with the very best suggestions for local places to eat (which you should definitely try-- but just be aware that everywhere closes early for food, so don't plan on dining late!), and any questions you could possibly have about where to go/how to get there, Ronda has the answers.
The studio is beautiful, clean & cozy. It was so nice to come back after a long day of being out and feel like you've come home. It was so much nicer than coming back to a hotel. The little kitchenette is so handy for having breakfast before you leave in the morning/a snack when you come home at night, and Ronda has everything stocked for when you arrive! The street you stay on is around the corner (about a 2 minute walk) from the tube, but you also feel like you're not in the centre of London where the hustle and bustle is, so it is a bit more quaint/quiet, especially off of Ronda's lovely garden. Still, the location couldn't be closer or more convenient, with the tube taking you anywhere you need to go, but there are also many great locations within walking distance! So many great markets, nice canals to walk along or parks to stroll through. We were there in January and still walked every day, because the area was so nice to do so! You are also supplied with a handy, portable wifi for the duration of your stay, which was extremely helpful/convenient.
All in all, the studio is lovely and the area is perfect, but the real reason the studio is such a steal is because Ronda is the best host. She really goes above and beyond to make you feel comfortable, at home & prepared for your trip. She even came by with baked goods one day! And when my boyfriend got really ill during our stay, Ronda not only went out of her way to look after him when I couldn't be there, but she also drove him to the doctors and got him antibiotics. And when we had an embarrassing amount of suitcases to take home with us at the end of our trip, Ronda then went out of her way again to drive us to the train station so we wouldn't have to lug all of our bags on the tube. She is a very kind and thoughtful host, so your stay is never without anything you could need. If you haven't gathered yet, we loved staying here & would recommend booking to anyone trying to decide!
