I have to start by saying this has been my 1st AirBNB experience and I was not 100% sure what to expect other than a nice private flat in a great city. I am thrilled to say that my expectations have been exceeded and then some. This has been a fantastic experience in a wonderful home in a great hidden gem of a neighborhood.

Starting with the flat. It’s comfortable, very well equipped, and beautifully eclectic. You have everything you need for your stay and then some. Mary provided very helpful tips and instructions in detail which made it easy to understand Wi-Fi, services and other important info about the flat. You genuinely feel well cared for here!

Location-wise it is great. You walk out the door on to a commercial street with every type of café, shop and restaurant you would want within blocks. There’s a grocery steps away from the door and a great wine shop underneath. Muswell Hill itself is a really charming and livable neighborhood with beautiful views of central London and great green and public spaces including Alexandra Palace, or Ally Pally (a must visit). The beautiful thing about London is the fantastic public transit. There are buses (including night buses) to all points within steps of the flat and the tube and nation rail are a few bus stops away. It’s only ~30 minutes to The City and there is usually only a very short wait between buses and trains.

Your host—Mary—is great. Both she and her assistant are attentive, flexible and helpful without being intrusive. I really enjoyed meeting them both and am very appreciative of their help during my stay.

I highly recommend this for a true London experience with a fantastic host!
