I really enjoyed staying at Talat's place. He was very friendly and always willing to help.
The room is a bit small but totally sufficient for 1-2 people. Honestly, it doesn't look very modern but it's really cozy.
Besides, the house was clean and I could use everything whenever I wanted to. I felt very welcome at Talat's.
You are also very flexible there, the bus station is not even 1 minute away from the house and the busses go very often (also at night). The nearest Underground station is Turnpike Lane which has also a few shops and restaurants. The area requires a bit of getting used to (in my view) but it has its own charm.
It's a great accommodation when you want to visit London and be independent. You also get to know another side of the big city.
I'm really glad I decided to stay there!
