The place is wonderful. It's a very charming house in a terrific location in the middle of Portobello Road. The real highlight is the host, though. James is very hospitable, extremely well-educated and even though I've been coming to London on a regular basis for a long time now, he could give me many new insights about the inner workings of the city and its neighborhoods. We've had great long talks and I felt very welcome at his place. He was also very flexible about my check-in time as I have arrived very early. I recommend this place without any reservations. Wish I could have stayed longer.
