James is a very welcoming and helpful host. The room is just what you would expect from the picture - clean and adequately furnished. You have full use of the kitchen (if you clear up after yourself!) and can enjoy continental breakfast (even down to the Sugar Puffs). I used both the local bus and the train to get from/to the underground with my luggage but that is very easy - both are within 2 minutes walk from the flat. If you don't NEED to be in Central London, this is a good place to be.
