Lakshmi was a great host! She accepted my last minute request to stay and was very accommodating. When I arrived she even made me a lovely Indian dinner. The flat was well-equipped with all amenities and an excellent view of the city, you can see the London eye, Big Ben and much more. I wasn't expecting anything more than a small room, but Lakshmi let me use the entire flat! The Hammersmith neighborhood is upscale and quiet. There are lots of great cafes and shops around. The flat it just a 3-5 minute walk to tube and overground stations. This is a great place to stay for a great price, highly recommend.
