Kyri was, and is, an ideal host. He keeps a lovely and spotless apartment right in the center of the city, so it's quite easy to use as a main departure and return point. I felt safe enough in the neighborhood to walk home each night I there. He offered up water and foodstuffs, use of the kitchen and adjoining patio, and the private bedroom and bathroom are spacious. He's also quite delightful to chat with, so hopefully he'll be around for at least part of your stay as his work schedule allows. Highly recommended and wouldn't hesitate to stay again on my next trip to London.
