We just got back from staying at Julie's place for five nights and I can't stay enough about Julie's hospitality. She was so helpful, available and responsive. We asked for alternative options in making coffee (since we don't love pod machines) and she quickly provided us with two different french presses! Her place is filled with so many thoughtful items that you may need for your trip. The house is bright and peaceful. The outside garden is BEAUTIFUL! We were worried about the train in the back, but it was very quiet and it never disturbed us. The neighborhood is cute and feels extremely safe. Personally, we used the metro the whole time. There is a bus station two minutes away, and getting to White City Metro stop was super easy. There was a grocery store right around the corner and a couple of yummy restaurants. This place is an fantastic deal. We also loved having a washer and dryer in the unit. It was easy to use and it worked well. Thanks for hosting us Julie!
