I had a wonderful few days stay at Fenella's beautiful home in the heart of Dalston. If you are visiting London for the first time, Dalston might be a bit far for you but I have been many times and love hanging out in this hip area full of some great food and well located to the other things in London I like to do. There's a direct bus to King's Cross and it's a few minutes from the overground. Fenella has a sweet little dog named Casper that was the cherry on top of the stay as a dog person. Fenella has some rules (i.e. can't use the kitchen) but she makes you a great breakfast that you can eat in her lovely garden if the weather permits. The room is spacious and you get full access to her main bathroom which has a tub (great for a bath). Bed is comfortable and everything is clean and well decorated for a very reasonable price. I would happily stay at Fenella's again!
