This is a really cheap living space. Perhaps it should be even cheaper.
The host is nice although not very communicative.
The room is tiny and totally without any ventilation. Only way to get new air in is to have the door and window open. The window is not enough and having the door open does not setup for very private living. Especially since there are cats in the area (both hosts cat and others). Since the room is situated in a "shed"-type building in the backyard of the house this is the only door keeping cats out.
Since there is no ventilation the room smells damp and soggy. There are "perfume dispensors" installed in the wall sockets in the room that every now and then spray some perfume into the room to cover this fact. Since the perfume was so strong and it made me smella like that (even after having had a trickle shower) I turned these perfume dispensors of. Rather live with the damp smell than the perfume factory feel.
Shower is on third level of the house. There is an extra pump to help with delivering water but dont expect much pressure when taking a shower, more of a trickle.
Both Bathrooms in the house have the wrong lid for the toilet so you cant really sit straight on it =/, they are both a bit off on the side.
The room is situated in what feels like a REALLY run down area of London. Not the hosts fault but I would not recommend the area in its whole since it does not feel like the safest place. Trash on the streets everywhere, people loitering in the street corners and noisy neighbors (screaming/fighting)
