Valarie is a great hostess, and very flexible which is essential for early incoming arrivals that don't conform to standard mid-afternoon check-in times. We arrived at Heathrow at 7:30 am, exhausted, and did NOT want to have to sit around with our baggage for hours. We went straight to her place, and that was that. She's situated in a wonderful location, central and walking distance from a tube station. Highly recommended.
