AustraliaI originally chose this property because I wanted to experience life in London outside of the main CBD at as I have been there 5 times before and always stayed in hotels in the city. I also wanted something other than just a hotel room for us so we could prepare our own breakfast and other meals if we wished plus the ability to do some washing from being on a canal boat prior to arriving in London.
We absolutely loved the time we had with Juliana! Not only was she friendly and welcoming but she even did our washing for us! She provided information on the train and bus system for anywhere we were heading, and she joined us for dinner at a restaurant she recommended. Plus, being Italian, she delighted in cooking us a wonderful Italian pasta for dinner one night.
There was building going on around her at the time, but it was never noisy, and the Sainsbury supermarket is a 2min walk away if that for any supplies we wanted.
The train station is a short walk from her apartment and there's a bus stop right outside.
Our room overlooked the park flanked by an old church in the background which is gorgeous and there are loads of great restaurants and shops nearby too.
Juliana also has 5 very gorgeous and unique cats that were a constant source of entertainment, but they never encroached on our personal space…if only to be a little inquisitive at times and that was also entertaining.
