Our stay at Putri's home was wonderful. The house itself was beautiful, with great communal and private spaces for our family of 5 during our week-long stay. It was a welcome reprieve coming back to the house after a long day of sightseeing and shopping. The house was clean and well maintained. A short bus ride (or slightly longer walk) into Balham connected us to the Underground and everywhere we wanted to visit in Central London. It was a nice and thoughtful touch having a Christmas tree in the house for the holidays. Also, can't say enough about Gary the housecat. Was a treat having him around. Communication with Putri was efficient and timely. Can't recommend this home enough for a stay in the London area.
