I stayed in London because I went to an Arsenal game. As I was only staying in the city for 24 hours, I decided to book a room close to the stadium and boy, was I in for a treat. It's as close as you can get to the Emirates Stadium, it's very close to metro and train lines and it is located in a really nice neighborhood.
Cathy was a very, very hospitable host that left no wishes unfulfilled and no questions unanswered. She recommended many nice places in close proximity and helped out whenever I needed anything. I am very grateful to her because rarely did I witness so much hospitality. The room itself was very nice as well with a comfortable bed inside.
All in all, I was pleasantly surprised, even though I had high expectations beforehand. You could say that Cathy exceeded them with ease. If I ever come back again to London to visit an Arsenal game or to stay in North London, my first action will definitely be to check if I can book a room at Cathy's place.
