Adored this place a lot! Stayed here for a night because I had some appointments at St Mary’s University, so staying at Sally’s place was convenient as it was close to the university and also close to the train station (~7 minutes walk, more or less with a medium-sized luggage). Sally was an amazing host - she helped me find train tickets from Brighton to Teddington and was just absolutely lovely.
Her two cats, AJ and Belle, were also very lovely. Belle was a little too attached (she stayed in my room while I was cleaning up and settling in) and they were fun to play with.
The neighborhood itself was quiet and safe, and even though I was travelling alone, it felt safe and nice to be in.
