Gruff IS an amazing host! He provided everything we needed for comfort and orientation and more. Plus he was readily available to answer questions. The house was beautifully suited for me and my parents. We especially loved the fully outfitted kitchen and enjoyed the comfortable and spacious sofas in the living room. The location was ideal for all purposes. It was an easy walk for groceries and just a few blocks to the plentiful pubs & restaurants of St. John's and Battersea Rise. With Clapham overground right around the corner giving us access to all of London's public transport and sights, we could hardly imagine a better situation. What a bonus that the house and neighborhood were wonderfully quiet! Even the trains whooshing by were barely noticeable. I would recommend Gruff's house without hesitation and would certainly stay again if I return to London.
