May was a very friendly and helpful host. She replied to our text messages, and helped with finding the right busses etc. to her home. The check-in time was also flexible.

Our room and the common rooms very nice and tidy enough. My friend had some issues with the squeeky beds, and one bathroom for three roomfuls of guests was also a bit too little. Other problems are probable shared with other older English houses, i.e. squeeky floar boards, separate taps for cold and hot water, pretty thin walls, etc. Nothing that serious, though, and at least our room was warm enough.

Being able to use kitchen was really convenient. We made our own breakfast, but cereals, tea, etc. would have been offered. The location was ok, too, and at least for us the walk to the tube station was not a problem. Considering the low price, this apartment was all in all a good deal, and we had a pleasant enough of a stay. Thanks!
