Although I wasn't able to meet Maggi much because of my busy schedule, it was a pleasant stay, and Maggi is a really hospitable guest. The location was perfect, near the Essex bus stop/train stop, and also near the Highbury and Islington tube stop. The room was exactly as advertised, clean, and had everything you need. I would definitely recommend this place, and Maggi is a gracious host. I would love to visit her again in the future, and have more interactions. :)
