Adequate
The property reminded me of staying with your college buddy right after graduation when he/she can't afford anything else. It's better than nothing at all, but certainly not an ideal place to be. It was a location with the advertised number of rooms and amenities and nothing more. It was very 'lived in' so don't expect a model apartment if you book it. It was not ramshackle, but there seemed to be no effort made at all to make it feel anything more than just a place to sleep. The bathroom, for example, had broken/uneven tiles that my daughter cut her foot on, and there was some mold in the shower. The selection of dishes was hosgepodge and shelving storage messy.In fairness to the host, it's hard to find any place at a reasonable price for a family in/around London, so it was at least an affordable option, and the host was reachable and and responsive.It is about a 20 minute walk from the tube station, and there are limited options for groceries/dining out in the area if you're on foot, but the trains run often and it's about an hour ride into central London.If you book, manage your expectations about the conditions in which you'll be staying.
