Replacing the carpets with hardwood floors and a deep cleaning of the house would be such a great improvement!
Heating during colder days should be a must but it sadly isn't the case.
Room was spacious and bright but very foul odour due to old stained carpets and other old, dirty things (heaboard/mattress...) old fabric smell made breathing uncomfortable.
Luckily bed linen and shared bathtoom were clean at all times.
Good location, easy 5-10 mins access to 2 London public transits and enjoyable 30 mns walk to iconic Wimbledon.
Host is a bit of a rude man who freely expressed unsavory opinions but thankfully haven't seen or interacted with him that much.
Other guests/longtime tenants are friendly, the dog as well.
I appreciated the easy, no hassle, pressure-free check-out.
