My Girlfriend and I had a fantastic time at Mike and Maria's home. Unfortunately Maria was away however Mike made us feel very welcome, even introducing us to his two hilarious friends our very first night there. The home is exactly as described and the location is ideal to get anywhere in London as well as having many small bars and cafes right along the canal. As many reviewers have said before, Mike is a great guy to sit and talk too if you have the time. He and his two friends entertained us our first night with some priceless stories from their acting school days, some of which should not be repeated in polite company :)
Overall a great experience and would happily stay there again if we ever have the chance.
