The accommodation is ideal for travelers/students like me who would like to have an accessible commute to London city center but prefer to be away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Bus stop for 278 and U2 is just a two minute walk from the accommodation, and Hillingdon train station is a 10 minute walk. Central London is an hour 15 minutes away by train. Bus 278 takes you directly to Heathrow Airport, 40 mins or so. Co-op Food grocery store, pharmacy, a Chinese restaurant, etc are clustered and very accessible too, about 7 minutes walk. I also chose the accommodation because of the proximity to the Oak Farm Library - I needed the library facilities, it is not very crowded, and the librarians are wonderful and very accommodating.
Sarah attended to my concerns promptly and with care. Her home has the basic amenities that a solo traveler like me requires - own bedroom, access to the kitchen, bathroom/toilet, use of the water heating. The stay felt like home, not a hotel, and I like that.
