We never actually met our host, but he communicated well with us over phone and email. He was also very accommodating to our schedule which was much appreciated. The house is only a 5 minute walk to Victoria Station which is awesome and very quiet and residential despite being in the city center. The room is actually much more spacious and cuter in person, with a large bed, micro and mini fridge and a small but nice bathroom. We felt comfortable staying here for the night.
