Phyl is a great host. Communication was excellent and check in was very easy. Location is excellent with Canning Town station just across the street and the Excel a 15 minute walk, enough to wake you up in the morning. The apartment is well laid out and my bedroom even had a small desk for my laptop. Bathroom was spotless and also stocked with all the toiletries that I needed. Phyl was nice enough to let me stay a bit later than normal check out time on the last day which was very helpful as my flight was not till late in the evening.
Possible future improvements could include a bit of TLC on some of the structural features but I am not sure if that is Phyl's responsibility or rather the whole building owners association decision.
All in all, I would gladly stay with Phyl again as it is a great location, a great value and Phyl certainly made me feel relaxed.
