My 8 year old son and I had an absolutely lovely time staying at Sam's -- she was accessible and communicative before we arrived, warm and welcoming upon our arrival, and available throughout our short but wonderful visit. The en suite bedroom and bathroom were clean, updated and comfortable. The detached but private kitchen was well appointed and stocked with basics (which we did not expect but was a welcome addition!) Sam was particularly kind and welcoming to my son, including offering him the use of a new book, inquiring about his interests, and generally making his first visit to London feel comfortable for him. The neighborhood has everything a visitor could want and is convenient to tourist attractions. I highly recommend this as an affordable and extremely comfortable and welcoming place to stay during your trip.
