This property is great value for money and I would highly recommend staying here.
As it was fairly cheap compared to most other places, I was worried that there would be a catch, but there was none whatsoever.
Melissa is a welcoming host and gave me prompt e-mail replies and spoke to me on the phone to take me through check in procedures and to assure me it was in a safe area - not being from London, I was worried about gangs and walking to the property at night, but from the Caledonian Road tube, it is a short walk on a busy road and then an even shorter walk on the quiet residential Blundell Street. I walked here on a Friday at 7 pm and Saturday at 11 pm and felt totally safe both times, which was very important to me, as someone who has suffered from a violent attack in the past.
At night it was very quiet and I got 2 nights good sleep.
The room was lovely - a really comfy bed and duvets, nice towels provided and lots of extras I wasn't expecting, like free tea and coffee, and even cereal left downstairs. I met one other tenant, who was very friendly, and the place had a very relaxed and good vibe.
All in all great value for money.
My only problem encountered was getting the key to the property via the keypad, as it was dark at night (and raining heavily), and I just couldn't see the numbers to get the code, so I would suggest taking either a torch or a mobile phone that lights up well, to avoid the problem (I guess me not having a mobile phone is pretty unusual these days) - anyway a friendly local resident got the keypad sorted for me, and once inside, I soon relaxed in the nice comfy bedroom.
The thing I most liked about the property was its quiet location - once inside, there was no noise, and anyone looking to find somewhere to relax and get a good night's sleep after a night out should really consider staying here, as it is perfect for that. All in all, I would rate this property and location very highly.
