We have stayed in Matthew's apartment for a month, and it has been our best AirBnB experience so far. We totally agree with its title -- "Luxury 1 Bedroom Apartment": it is spacious, very clean, and has stable WiFi plus all the modern white goods such as dish washer and washing machine. The apartment sits within a new and big residential development. Hence, it is very safe and quiet. In addition, there are lots of good photography books in the apartment that we enjoyed reading in many evenings. Therefore, we really felt like we were at home while staying in this apartment.

Matthew has been extremely helpful before and during our stay. Before we arrived, we received a very informative welcome pack via email, which explains (with photos) how to use everything in the apartment and how to get around from it. During our stay, he promptly replied all of our email queries.

In fact, we have stayed in the Novotel (Brentford) hotel in our previous trip, which is less than 200 metres walk from Matthew's apartment. We can confidently say that Matthew's apartment is better than Novotel in all aspects, and is much cheaper (especially for long stay). I guess that's why everyone likes AirBnB.
