A friend and I decided to treat ourselves to a lovely weekend in London and stayed with Vilma and Anthony. We booked this particular place for the price, location and positive ratings. It was our first experience using Airbnb. The experience totally exceeded our expectations.

We walked from Victoria station through Battersea park, what a beautiful park where you can hire bicycles, play tennis and even see a gorgeous Buddha temple right next to the house. The house is big and lovely. Our room was exactly as shown in the pictures, large, light, quiet, lots of storage, comfy (perfect mattress, no pea underneath!) and with wireless connection. Vilma walked us to the nearest bus which come by every 5 minutes to every direction you can think of. We enjoyed walking to Sloane Square metro to see the beautiful houses and have access to shops. On both nights, we came home late walking and felt very safe in the neighborhood and what a sight to see the Albert bridge light up at night, beautiful!

Now, meeting Vilma was quite a thing for us! She is warmhearted, flexible (don't hesitate to ring the bell at 3am if you have lost the keys!!), friendly, entertaining, attentive, makes recommendations for the day according to our moods (great Manicomio restaurant at Duke of York square), spends breakfast with us chatting away. We definitely felt we met a special new friend in the city. She is the perfect hostess.There is no doubt that if we spend time in London again, it will be at Vilma's even if she is fully booked and we have to be in her bed!! Actually my manager asked me for the link today, that can only be good non dear Vilma :)?

Un abbraccio to you and Anthony from Myriam and Kelsey
