I had a very nice 5 days stay at Rita's home, it's not posh by any means, but is quiet, secure and completely functional with everything you need for a comfortable stay, once you work out the transport system you'll find bus stops close by that take you into town or to the nearest train station (or 13 mins walk) definitely a multi racial area in the real London! Rita is a very good communicator, and I would say the home is excellent value for money if you're not expecting the Ritz hotel! Thanks Rita and Alex, hope to see you (and your two gorgeous friendly cats) again on my next trip to London from NZ. Cheers!
