Great value for money. Ali (one of the lovely hosts) rings you to check when to expect you and is very friendly. the tube station is not far at all and there are plenty of buses into london.
a few things to note - here are only 3 parking spots in front of the hotel, but plenty of on street parking (so free overnight but will need to move the car during the day) but Ali has the prices of the car park in the shopping centre near by.
the room I was in had a bit of a draft from the window. otherwise great place to stay. thank you again!
