Toral is a lovely, very friendly perso
Toral is a lovely person and very friendly and the whole experience was like staying with a friend-of-a-friend! The location in Southwark is very quiet. My stay was in the summer and I kept the window open. The loudest sound was the tennis game across the street! Compared to other neighborhoods where I have stayed, the walk to the Tube station was a little longer, but I would gladly trade the walk for the extremely calm surroundings.
Toral is a "foodie" (as am I) so I loved being able to use her fabulous kitchen!! There is a convenient M&S Simply Food and a Tesco and Toral is generous with refrigerator space. Lots of pans if you want to cook, too.
I have to mention the amazing shower--overhead "rain" to wash away the day's fatigue plus hand held wand to get clean!
Great place to put down London roots for a few days!
