Helena is a wonderful, thoughtful and accommodating host. She went out of her way to make our stay pleasant and hassle free. She welcomed us with breakfast pastries and coffee which was totally unexpected and very welcomed! We loved hanging out with her beautiful cat, Mr. Oreo. It was a nice surprise to have a pet since my daughter and I missed our babies back home. I highly recommend staying with Helena I. Your trip to London. Oh, did I mention that Battersea Park rocks!
