We traveled to London for he start of our honeymoon, and this was the perfect home base for us. After I booked, I was a little concerned about the location being outside of the city center, but it really wasn't bad at all. We spent about 30-40 minutes on the tube each way, and it was usually nice to get off of our feet for a few. The Harlesden stop was only about an easy 5 minute walk from the flat. We also liked staying in a neighborhood where it felt like people actually lived, rather than a tourist trap. It really added to our experience of London, and we were glad to come "home" to it every night. Chris was a great host--very quick to respond and flexible with our arrival and departure times. He went out of his way to make sure we were comfortable and content. (For example, he stopped at the underground station after he left us to ask them a question about buying Oyster cards.) He's really an ideal Air BnB host. We had a little trouble with the shower temp and consistency, but that was our only issue.
