I liked my stay at Richard's home very much. The room is small, but very clean and the bed is comfortable. Shower gel and towels are offered in the bathroom. The next station is Forest Gate in the North or Upton Park in the South. It is worth to stop in one of the many small shops on the both High Streets going to the stations. Options for breakfast are very cheap in this ethnic neighborhood. There are also the small things in offer that a busy travelers might forget (f.e. adapters). Richard and his wife are very discreet hosts which I appreciated. Somehow I felt like in a hotel. They also have two small cute dogs who start to bay when they are home.
