Ultimately it’s a great location. The 36 bus is your friend not the Tube. Host was very accommodating. Europeans and Latin Americans will be quite happy here and understanding. Americans from the south will not be as happy.
This is very much a European flat and Americans may not be able to fit or be as accepting of the stairs and shower. I also hate to complain about it but the Wifi for my work needs was not up to par. But for me and my wife it was a good experience and we were happy with the location and cleanliness of the apartment.
