My two friends and I had an amazing stay with Ola for New Years. We took a cab from Heathrow, and Ola met us at her house with a smile and open arms. The area of Croydon was very safe, and walking from her house to the Croydon shopping area was very easy. It was very easy to get from her house to London, the three of us had never traveled abroad before, but it was very easy to figure out the rails. Ola and her sons were very helpful with getting around, and giving us suggestions of places to check out. The room was very comfortable, and we bought food from the grocery store, and saved money making it in her kitchen. Would definitely stay again.
