Thomas was a wonderful host! The apartment was just as advertised-cozy, comfortable and well-appointed. His communication before and during my stay was top-notch; at one point I had an issue with the keys and he responded promptly and with such class-I was extremely impressed with his level of "customer service." On top of his awesome communication and customer service skills, he's a lovely conversationalist-one night we chatted over a glass of wine about all sorts of things.
The neighborhood of Herne Hill was also super cute! There were a handful of quaint and yummy restaurants, bars and bakeries adjacent to the LOVELY Brockwell Park and the Herne Hill above ground train stop. It was a nice respite from the busy-ness of Central London and only a short walk or even shorter bus ride from his apartment.
Overall, I would highly recommend staying at Thomas's flat!
