I was very nervous about booking a trip to London without my wife. This was my first solo trip and my wife was always the navigator and planner. I was travelling on a budget and since I just needed a safe, clean bedroom to stay in (since I would be travelling around London most of the day and night) I searched cautiously. My wife found Lateef’s and it looked promising, but you never know right? I booked it for 7 days as I decided to take the risk based on prior reviews. Well to say I was overjoyed with my experience is an understatement. I was greeted by the host when I arrived and he couldn’t have nicer. I got the tour around the place and my keys and I was off and running. Once you find the place, it’s easy to find again and doesn’t seem as confusing like the first time (I’m directionally challenged :) )
Later says about 7-9 minutes to the nearest tube but I found it to be much closer and that time is on the long side. The place is incredibly close to the tube and busses are right outside his door. The choice to stay here for the week was the best choice I made in a long time. Clean, safe, easy access to tube was what I wanted and it’s what I got. The fact that the host is so nice and communication was always quick, made things even better. If you are travelling on a budget and you just need a clean, safe room that locks then this is your place. I highly recommend staying here. Having this place and host be so wonderful took a huge weight off my shoulders while travelling alone to London for the first time.
