Alison (the host) is a friendly, practical and reliable lady, her dog Charlie lovely and always asking for some food! :) The room and bathroom were immaculately clean. No more than 3 minutes walk to the tube station West Acton. Self service breakfast was a nice bonus and I welcomed the possibility of using the kitchen to prepare dinner. I totally recommend this place even for solo travellers as the neighbourhood is safe even for walking alone in the dark of the evening.
