Sandra and Derek are amazing hosts! This cozy and comfortable apartment is in their beautiful Kew home, just a few minutes walk from train and bus stations. It is also a short walk from the gorgeous Kew Gardens. The trains run frequently, providing easy access to the city center.
Our hosts' thoughtfulness made our stay particularly special. Our flight in to London was delayed by several hours and so we didn't arrive until nearly midnight, well after when we'd originally planned. Derek stayed up to greet us at the door and let us know where everything was. During our stay, they gave us delicious fresh fruit and croissants for breakfast - this is one spot that actually remembers the "breakfast" in "b and b"! When we discovered that the currency converter we'd brought for the UK didn't work, they let us use one they had. They also had plenty of useful suggestions and advice about what to see and do in the city as well as in Kew.
The room itself is very clean and well-equipped and seems to have been recently remodeled. The bathroom is new, everything works, and the towels were large and soft.
Another thing we noticed is that the art in the house in quite beautiful; I think that some of the paintings are Derek's own.
We had a wonderful time and would love to come back some time!
