Zeca and Silvio’s place is a true gem in London: though located in Lee, to the south-west of Central London, it would only take 10-20 minutes for one to get to the core of the metropolis by train (Charing Cross Station, London Bridge Station). The neighbourhood is more than satisfactory: you can get most things you desire from local supermarkets (Co-op and Sainsbury’s) and restaurants, and the beautiful Hither Green and Greenwich Park are not far away, accessible by bus, or even on foot. So if you consider moving apart from the traffic hassle of Zone 1 and finding yourself free from noises, I would definitely recommend it.
The room, having en-suite facilities, is located on the top floor of the house in which the hosts live. The room is big (surely bigger than average) in size, and what a pleasure to sleep on a cosy bed underneath two skylight windows at night! Apart from the amenities that the room is already equipped with – microwave oven, kettle, TV, a desk and an armchair, various sorts of books, games, food and fruit – you have full access to the living room downstairs which definitely fulfils all your personal needs. The garden to the back of the house is beautifully decorated with flowers and the garden shed, which is the only place allowed to smoke in, is a great and private haven for reading.
The hosts are two extremely lovely people with whom I had absolutely a great time. They are very caring, helpful, and very quick to respond. It was such a great time staying at Zeca’s place, and, once again, I would certainly recommend this Airbnb for any future traveller.
