Serge is an expert host, he knows exactly how to make a guest feel welcome, explaining everything about the flat and area straight away and making himself available for chit chat and any questions no matter how trivial. The flat is in a wonderful part of Maida Vale in North West London, a great and easy commute into Padding and further London (especially on the bus but the tube is nearby too). The flat is a perfect home from home, there is ample storage available so guests can settle in and having an internet and desk in the room was very helpful. Serge is very proud of his garden and rightly so, it was delightful to cook a quick bite after a day of work and on the nicer days even eat al fresco. Serge is extremely generous with his time and kept the whole place very neat and tidy, I would highly recommend staying with Serge in his wonderful garden flat.
