I very much liked Gerry, her son, and the accommodation. I was in London for only night. My train arrived in the afternoon and my flight left the next day. Gerry went out of her way to provide great directions from the train station to her place and from her place to the airport. She told me all about the Oyster card for London buses and that I could sell it back when I left. She was kind enough to go out of her way to drive me to the bus stop in the early morning when I left. She is a friendly, unpretentious person who made me feel quite at ease and welcome. The place may be a bit "scruffy" (Gerry's word) and cluttered, which might make some travelers a bit uncomfortable, but the relaxed, friendly, helpful atmosphere more than make up for that.
