Please do yourself a favor and stay here! It is a really nice area with shops and food, also only a 10 minutes train ride to the city....I loved the area it gave me a feel for outside of central London...Paru is a gem! She is such an amazing host, she even cooked a meal for me! We sat and had dinner one night and just talked about world problems! As a female solo traveler this place was amazing! I am also going to purchase a new mattress because hers was more comfy than mine back in the states! Thank you Paru I now have a life long friend!!!
