I enjoyed my stay at Penny's for two nights in London. She has a lovely home located about a 45 minute walk away from Kensington Palace and St. James Park. The neighborhood is safe, quiet, and eclectic. The room is perfect for a solo traveler, clean, with A/C, a hairdryer, kettle, and an incredibly comfortable bed (which made it hard to get out of in the morning). Penny was very communicative and attentive to any questions I had. The shower is attached to the room, and the toilet is down the small hall. Tip: You should definitely take the time to read some of the papers framed on the wall. I would recommend Penny's home and stay there again in the future.
