Great, friendly host couple. Dhanushka and her family were very welcoming and respectful of my space, and offered tips on local sights/restaurants. They do have a young child, though quite well behaved. She woke me up once or twice, but only for about five minutes before she quieted back down.
The location is great for any who don't mind taking the buses (which are very convenient, frequent, and reliable in London). If you are set on only doing the tube, then it is a bit of a walk. Also, if it's your first time in London and you're looking to do the classic tour (e.g., Westminster, Buckingham, London Eye, etc), then this spot is probably too out of the way for you. If you've been to London before, and are looking for a more "local" experience, this spot is great! Definitely check out the Columbia Road Flower market and the food market they have, as well as the Shoreditch nightlife!
Overall, great experience.
