Valda was a great host, and her house was superb for our family of 4 and my mom. The house is a 2 minute walk from the subway station in a very nice area. It is a quiet street, with around the corner a supermarket, fish and chips joint and a couple of other stores. The house itself was very cosy, a real " feeling home" vibe, with 3 bedrooms perfect for our family. Valda was very helpful in communication before arrival, and certainly helpful at arrival where she was waiting for us to escort us to her home. At the table we had some tea and biscuits and she started explaining how to get everywhere en showed us the house. One great tip she had was the app " Citymapper" where you can easily find your way with the public transport around the city. We all had a great time in London, and if we are in town next time we will definitely stay at Valda's again.
