Marie was a lovely hostess. A really lovely person.
The room is very tiny but if you don’t need so much space or if you are travelling light it’s perfect. You sleep on a camp bed and it’s not overly long but comfy enough. And there was no noise from the street outside so that was good.
You get your own keys and Marie is happy for you to come and go as you need. Marie also invites you to make tea and toast for yourself too.
The shower was super – just over a bath but a great jet of water and really hot.
It was my first time in Holloway Road and there’s a tiny bit of estate to walk through to get to Marie’s but it didn’t feel unsafe. It was also great that Marie was at home during the day as I was able to drop off my case early afternoon.
