Nicky made me feel very welcome. The accommodation was just as I expected, as the description was very accurate and the photos gave a clear idea of what the house, and particularly the rooms on offer to guests, are like. Muswell Hill is an extremely pleasant area with predominantly Edwardian streetscapes. Nicky's house is in a quiet street but is very close to shops, cafés and restaurants. It is also well served by buses (several routes). Muswell Hill is lively without being too crowded and I felt very safe there.
