We have been in Richard's home for a week. We arrived late at night, but Richard has been kind and showed us our room. During the week we've seen him and Oakki just a few times,because unfortunately there's no much space to stay all toghether in the house. We weren't allowed to use the kitchen, we didin't even see it.
It's really easy to find the unerground station (upton park), that is approximately 15 mins on foot ( 7 mins with the buses 15-330 if I remember good). The metropolitain line that we used the most was the district, but every line from upton park is perfectly linked to the city, for example it takes about 15-20 mins to piccadilly.
The bed was comfortable and there was a good odour in the room.
We spent a great week, we would return at Richard's house if we had to visit London again.
