Marie is an excellent host. Anything you need to know about London and Islington, she can help you out. You feel less like a guest and more like a friend. Her cat will also greet you after the second time you come in the house.

The location cannot be beat - you're very spoiled for location when you stay here. Close to everything from tube to international rail, not that long to Heathrow. Marie gives very simple, easy to follow directions to get to her place. I'm quite prone to getting lost and I didn't once.

This was an excellent first AirBnB stay and set the standard very high.
