Matthew was a pleasure to deal with through the whole process, from booking and corresponding via email, all the way to hosting and checkout. He is a lovely person, easy to be around and respectful of privacy, and his home is as lovely in person as it is in the photos. It is very conveniently located (under 5 minutes) to the Oval station on the Northern Line and many many busses. Rarely did it take me more than 20 minutes to get to anywhere in Zone 1. The neighborhood is perfectly safe and has all the necessary conveniences nearby. I wouldn't have a single hesitation staying with Matthew again, and in fact probably will the next time I travel to London!
