I have stayed at Manuel and Cecilia's house for 3 nights. They were so willing to answer every question I raised before the trip. It really helped me a lot as it is my first travel to England and especially I traveled on my own.
The lovely house is in zone 3 but you will find that it is so easy to get to the city of London because its station (seven sister) is on the Victoria line which direct you to the city of London in 30 minutes with no change to other line. It takes less then 90 minutes for you to get to the station from Heathrow airport by tube with a relatively low cost (5.1 pounds at peak hour). You can take the piccadilly line from Heathrow to Finsbury Park and change to Victoria line and go one stop forward to seven sister's station.
Just a kind reminder, you will find the house easy accessible if you can first check the destination of the house on google map. This can help you too spend less than 15 minutes to get there.
Once you leave the station, you can notice the difference between the city and seven sister. It is more local and residential. This is a quite good experience for one to really feel the real life in England. That is one of the reason I chose this place rather than those in the city centre. You can experience different dimensions of life in London.
As referred to the comments of the previous visitors, Manuel and cecilia are so generous and kind. They prepared the guest with plenty of cookies, tea, coffee and the lovely home-made cakes that you can consume any time you want. The only worry for me is that I will get fat after my stay at their home. As I also prepare my meals at their home, they are so willing to let me use their kitchen and I was so impressed on the tidiness and cleanliness of their kitchen as well as the other parts of their house.
My room is on the second floor which is so spacious and good ventilated. It is even better than the photos shown on Airbnb. I have learnt that the room was designed by Cecilia. I am sure she must spend lots of effort and time in decorating the room.
The guest toilet is on the third floor which is shared by guests only. It is dustless and odour less.
In general, the house and the hosts are excellent for me with no hesitation to recommend you to choose it.
P.S. their son is so lovely and helpful. Thanks for his help in demonstrating me how to use the stove.
Best Regards,
Ashley
