Sylvan was a gracious hostess! She accepted my request within minutes, when I need a quick place to stay on short notice. Although I didn't stay in the single room (because it was being re-painted) she showed it to me before, it's absolutely perfect. Cosy and clean. She has little tea stations which are nice and her house is filled with lovely amazing photographs! She also had the room cleaned each day, which was a pleasant surprise. I'll keep her place in mind for an affordable, close to London option.
