You can have our word that the place is amazing. It is around 12 minutes walk from the nearest tube station. It has a wonderful spacious living area complete with a huge sofa, a tv with cable, and a fireplace (yup, a real working fireplace perfect for the cold London days).
The house has a fully operational kitchen where you can cook your meals. The great part is that Francesca loves cooking/baking and she is willing to share with you her ingredients in the kitchen.
The house has only 1 room with a queen sized bed perfect for two people although Francesca provides another queen size and single inflatable beds. The couch is also big and comfortable enough for 1 person to sleep in.
Should you decide to feel the London breeze, weather, or the occasional sun, the flat also has a beautiful veranda or a terrace where you can go out and enjoy the same. You can gaze at Francesca’s mini garden setup or have a bbq on the grill provided the weather cooperates.
For the cons, the place is around more than 30 minutes away from central London. The commute could cost a bit more as you transfer tube lines to and from home. Could also be a bit tiring especially if you have been touring around the whole day.
Otherwise, the place is perfect for us. We were a family of 4 people and the place more than sustained our needs and we really felt at home.
It is sad that we were not able to personally meet Francesca but she made sure that we were very well assisted and welcomed accordingly. She setup the place for us with a small Christmas tree, a Merry Christmas note, and baked welcome goods for us. She is a very nice and accommodating host who is very easy to talk to online. She made sure were were attended to well despite being away.
Overall rating of 5/5 for Francesca and another 5/5 for her place.
Salamat, Francesca! -Zambranos
