Paolo is a very friendly guy. We chatted quite a bit, we had coffee together, it felt like we stay together and not a host-guest relationship.
The apartment is very clean. London spaces are tight, so is the room, but it has all the necessities one may need - a chair, a large wardrobe, mirror, blanket, towels, bed (the mattress is on the softer side), extension for electric sockets, drying rack.
Any public transport is quite a bit of walk from this apartment though, but i realised London is huge, and 15-20min walks are considered short.
There are small convenience stores nearby, but the big ones or restaurants/cafes are also a bit of a walk away.
The stay was very pleasant, and I have no complaints :)
