Arune is a delightful host. Very upbeat and detail oriented in her communications and follow-up. My room had a cozy balcony and with view over a children's playground below. Homey. The shared space was not quite what I needed given that I was doing professional travel. But just check with Arune about the flat's common spaces, kitchen details, etc. She is knowledgeable and will be able to provide you with a clear sense of how it will work for your specific London plans.
