I stayed at a single room in Jelena's place for about 10 days. It was really tidy and cozy. The host maintains the place really clean. The house and the area near the house as a whole are not that crowded so you might find some peace there. Speaking of the area, it is very quiet and safe resident area. You can go to Ealing Broadway by bus where you may find tube line(central and district line), library, mall and pretty much everything you need. It might take long all the way to central London(40-50min totall), but considering the price and the place itself, it is definitely worth it. This is the place for those who visit London for business(even better if you have a car), traveler who wants to go local and someone who travel with family.
