Brendan's place is located close enough to the tube station that you can easily get anywhere in London. And there are plenty of little shops around and a larger Sainsbury within walking distance. The flat was clean with what you would expect for London charm.
Brendan was a great host. Knowledgeable and friendly. We didn't see much of each other, because I was out exploring, but he was open for conversation and very welcoming without being overbearing. This was a perfect introduction to airBnB. When I return to London, I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.
