This stay was a genuine treat. All I needed was a bed & roof over my head for a night on the town in London. I received much more. Greeted by the household & warmly embraced as if I was a lost relative, I was openly and warmly made welcome and then given space to prepare for my night out. I had some time to kill and after a satisfying shower in tidy facilities, took a lay down for a read & relax. The room was spacious, very comfortable and as tidy as I like to keep my own. By the time I left for my night out I was in good spirits, boosted no doubt by the earlier socialising and relaxed.

Equally importantly, after a late night I came back and fell asleep quickly, un-bothered by street noise or hustle & bustle (the townhouse is in a quiet cul-de-sac away from the main road) and woke shortly before the departure time, once again to a quiet household. A quick shower and I was gone but with a personal promise to touch base with Joe once again should I have a need for a place in the Finsbury Park/Mansion House area. An excellent experience, highly recommended.
