Salwa was a gracious host, very flexible with arrival and departure times. Salwa also showed us around the neighborhood so that we would be comfortable. The location of her flat is very convenient to Paddington (though I wouldn't recommend dragging a heavy suitcase all the way there, I as I did). The room is quiet and even equipped with a fridge for your personal food items. I would definitely stay with her again, and advise others to do the same.

The only thing I was not aware of prior to arrival was that there are two rooms for rent in the flat, meaning the bathroom is shared with additional guests. The other guests were considerate and lovely as well, so it wasn't a problem in the end, but something to think about if you need a lot of time in the bathroom.
