Communication with Alicia was very good be e-mail. I didn't meet her in person. She kindly agreed with the late arrival! However the key was not put in agreed place. Hopefully there was a light so I rang and a nice young guy opened the door. The attic room was OK even if it is really attic and the staircase is extremely steep and very unpractical if you have any luggage. The most unpleasant surprise was the bed linen which was not fresh - someone has already slept in and while it was not strictly speaking dirty it was not by no means fresh. Moreover if attic room is fine the kitchen and common spaces are full of garbage - I can't choose another word for a tons of old plastic bags and cardboard boxes which are everywhere. Of course people are entitled to live on the piles of dirty old useless things but you can't decently ask for 52 pounds and provide hosts which such an environment. All in all - hugely overpriced, no charm at all. If you are up to visit London it is not a good option as it is far from the city and if you are to Walthamstow try to find somethong better
