Firstly, i would like to state that our trip has been really splendid and part of it was contributed by having a nice cosy place to come back to at the end of every day of extensively exploring the city of London.
Our host was awesome in many ways , way back even before we officially became his guests. The numerous pre-booking enquiries was handled very very promptly. Replies came as fast as within minutes or just few hours and that speed of communication has been really reassuring.
Host was responsive, accommodating and very obliging. His response as mentioned was super fast, and he was able to accommodate to his best ability on our request for earlier check in and he went out of his way to ensure we're comfortable in the home by loaning us a rice cooker as requested and few other stuff mainly kitchen items. We really appreciate that and was very kind of him.
Check in process was smooth and uneventful with his assistant to show and guide us around.
The home itself is pleasantly located in a quaint , tranquil neighbourhood and it was not facing any main road, therefore it was as peaceful as it gets without any noise from motorized vehicles and also blessed with a beautiful garden view right opposite our windows.
Access by tube is amazing , within a short walk we could easily reach any of these 5 stations ... Lancaster Gate, Queensway, Bayswater, Paddington tube station and Paddington Train Station ... amazingly convenient !
Size of the unit is just optimal i would say for 3 pax like us, adding another person would be a bit of a squeeze although possible.
The beds, mattresses and pillows are clean and comfy as with general hygiene of the place.
However, for further improvement there are 3 things that could be fixed ...
1. one dining chair is wobbly needs some tightening up of the screw
2. the bathroom door can't be locked from inside due to a broken latch
3. hot water not coming out from the kitchen sink tap which makes washing dishes a freezing cold affair
In short, this place is really cosy in a serene neighbourhood, superb value for money, amazing accessibility by tubes and handled by a really superb host.
If I were to visit London again, I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again or any other homes hosted by the same host.
