I was very anxious about staying in London alone but Nicky made me feel unbelievably welcome. After getting lost and turning up at 10pm (four hours late), Nicky met me with a cup of tea and a very friendly dog called Bowie. She showed genuine interest in the job I'd come down to London for and even dropped me off on my first day as I was nervous about finding it!
The house is lovely: spotlessly clean but with loads of personality. Breakfast is provided and full access to the kitchen for cooking: something I haven't found in many other AirBnBs which allowed me to feel more relaxed after work, it felt like coming back to my own home. I was surprised to learn I wasn't the only person staying with Nicky but everyone who stayed was lovely so it was no problem at all (there are three double rooms including Nicky's).
Felt so relaxed and comfortable, as if I were at home! Nicky is a wonderful, accommodating host and I will definitely be back anytime I visit London in future.
