Kevin and Kathy were wonderful hosts! Very accommodating, helpful and informative. Always willing to have a chat, and provide any extra amenities.
The room we had was in their basement, so no natural sunlight. And you could hear people walking up and down above you. There were other visitors like us staying as well in the house. The floors were wooden (not carpeted) and a little creaky. There was a smell in the bathroom (like drain or sewage) which I did let them know about. Also there’s a boiler for hot water in the corner of the room (for the whole house) that comes on 3x a day (the timings can be adjusted if you discuss w Kevin). It is a bit noisy and if it’s turned off, no one in the house has hot water! ;)
Location- I did find it a little far from central London and from the tube station. After two days we decided to use the bus instead of walking. But that is why the price is so affordable!
The washer/ dryer worked well, but the drying took quite long (3-4hours) to get dry. We didn’t cook at all, so didn’t use the kitchen much.
Every morning we had breakfast at the main kitchen- lots of cereal brands and types to choose from, toast or croissants/ scones etc.. best part was we get to chat with the other residents in the house and get to know new friends which was wonderful.
Thanks Kevin and Kathy for a wonderful stay :)
