Christina IS very welcoming, discreet if you need Space but also available for a chat/cup of tea/tips....make sure to bring earplugs with you since she lives by a very passing avenue, and for those accostumed to sleep in the dark (like me) bring an eye Mask for thé night...tube is 5 min away, many buses just few meters away. You Can go pretty much everywhere with minimum transport changes. Good cost/value rate!
