Rob and Emiko are lovely people and it was great staying with them. The room is very spacious complete with windows for lots of natural light, a great workspace, a comfy bed, a mini-fridge, and a closet with ample hangers. Loved that they had shaving cream in the bathroom in addition to shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel.
The closest underground stations are a 15-20 minute walk or a short bus ride. Commuting into the city winds up being about 30-40 minutes. They do provide tons of pamphlets with local recommendations which is helpful. It is very convenient from Gatwick airport but the proximity to Gatwick means that the planes passing by are quite loud. I’m a light sleeper but it didn’t bother me, but something to keep in mind if you’re sensitive to sound.
The breakfast provided is great, they offered me porridge, jams, and yogurts. Rob also gave me two chocolate bars on my last day after we had a great conversation about chocolate! They are a real down to earth family and they really wanted to make sure I enjoyed my stay and were easy to talk to. Overall, highly recommend if you’re staying in London!
