Vilma and Anthony were extremely welcoming. Given the fact that I knew London and that I am quite fluent in English l, I didn't need to ask much or being advised on how to get around but they would have been happy to give me any kind of help, I am sure.
The room responds perfectly to the description of the website. The room is bright, equipped with two large built-in wardrobes, and a comfortable desk for studying or simply reading complete the furniture.
Very few things could be improved without spoiling the old-fashioned vibe of the place.
First, a slight increased focus on heating. These days have been relatively warm in London, but I have reservations about the indoor temperature if you stay in the dead of winter.
Secondly, not to go as far as to "Alexa" type automation, it would not be too bad to equip the bedside lamp with an accessible switch that make you not to get out of bed to turn off the light (only a button inside the lampshade is available).
Thirdly, the bathroom fan is a bit dull because it keeps going for at least 5 minutes after turning off the light.
On the other hand, the use of the kitchen was perfect; it has to be used by 7.30 P.M, however. As Italian person, I loved preparing quick fresh meal at the end of the day, so they were very kind to let me do that exceptionally.
The hair-dryer' power was too low for my many long, thick hair. This was not such an important issue, however.
One plus for me was to be so close to the river, and to have some jogging in the near Battersea Park.
All thing considered I will miss a lot this area and Vilma’s apartment was like home for me.
Thank you!
