This place was amazing! Quiet and safe neighborhood, fairly decent location, beautiful place, clean, spacious, etc. Perhaps the only possibly negative thing to keep in mind is the lack of certain things Americans expect: no TV, no A/C, no clothes dryer, no microwave, and no screens on the windows (but not an issue in England generally as there are almost zero bugs). But the weather means you don’t need A/C even in summer (except one day!), and being on vacation, TV is not needed either. She provides drying racks to dry clothes as well, and I didn’t see a single mosquito. So again, none of these really were an issue for me except the lack of a microwave since using a stove to reheat food is not something I know how to do.
Overall, though, Lucy was an amazing host! Super responsive, respectful, super helpful, and she took a chance on me who had no feedback and was using a new acct. Truly an awesome person who is on top of things! And every concern I had she responded to within hours. Check in and check out was painless and done via lockbox. Honestly you couldn’t find a better hostess or place in London for anywhere near the rate she charges. So I highly, highly recommend this place and her as a host!
