Four of us had an excellent 4-night stay in David's home. Check-in was easy and well communicated. David quickly resolved any small issues we had. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen is equipped to make all your meals. The backyard is a small oasis in the city. The neighborhood isn't much to speak of, but the close proximity to the train station (Thornton Heath) and large grocery store (Tesco) gives bonus points for location. 15 minute walk to both and a 30 minute train ride into the core of London. A great deal overall, recommended!
