Away from the hustle and bustle of central London, yet close enough to the main attractions via a variety of transportation options, Gary's place was the perfect location for us to get a real feel for the local vibe of South West London. The room itself was tastefully decorated and had a variety of plants that along with the bright natural lights from the skylight and windows that looked into the garden, provided as a tranquil escape from a long day of sightseeing. Even with the raindrops hitting the windows during this rough winter, it provided a relaxing atmosphere. The bed was very comfortable with clean sheets and towels, along with bathroom toiletries provided. The place was spotless upon arrival and we especially appreciated the private bathroom. We were able to easily work online if needed with the reliable high-speed Internet provided. We also were able to use the kitchen for some cooking or coffee, and Gary and his dog Karm were the best hosts for our stay. We shared great conversation and he was kind to provide many suggestions both locally and throughout London. Gary was simply highly considerate and accommodating during our entire stay and we couldn't have felt more comfortable and at home in his place. We highly recommend his place and would definitely stay again in the future!
