In our travels of Great Britain and Ireland, we stayed with 3 Airbnb hosts. Mark was by far the best. Mark was waiting for us at his front door to welcome us in. He showed us our room and gave us a tour of the house, making us feel totally comfortable from the start. He was preparing dinner with another traveler who was a friend of his, and promptly invited us to join them.
Mark is a great at conversation and is genuinely interested in all his guests. He helped us figure out what to do while in London and recommended some great places to eat.
As described in the listing, this place is neat and tidy and well kept. Everything was new and comfortable. He has two refrigerators to accommodate his guests as well as laundry machines. The place is a short distance from 2 underground stations and a short trip to the central part of London. We could go into the bustle of the city and then retreat to Mark's to relax. It felt like a home away from home. Tooting itself is a culturally diverse area with a lot of great take away for dinner on the walk home. We felt safe walking in the area day or night.
Mark helped us solve any problem that arose while in his home with graciousness and care. After staying for 5 nights, we left feeling that we left a good friend.
We highly recommend this listing and host.
