A locker at the private room would be nice addition.

The host was very kind and helpful. The room had all the basic things we needed. Also very close to public transport (buses and metro). The center of the city was very accessable.

The apartment felt a bit worn, but the location was perfect. It could use some TLC, but the charm was undeniable, location was good and it was good value for the money.

Well connected to underground transportation - 10' walk to nearest station, 12' to Stratford station.

Good location, Stratford Centre is 10 min walk from the house, so the city center is easily accessible via public transportation. Michael was a really kind and helpful host. Room was perfect for a quick visit to London.

The room/bathroom could be a bit cold for somebody like us coming from the south of Italy as we're not used to this cold weather. (We visited in January) The room is overall alright, especially if you're planning to visit the city during the day and stay in the room to sleep only. I would suggest a warmer/thicker duvet; the sheets were quite cold. Also they didn't have a hairdryer.

Michael is very polite and attentive towards his guests.

less than ten min walk to Stratford tube, very friendly host and family, heater on 24/7, stable wifi, cleaner service included in cost, ironing board provided, large desk, washing machine available and plenty of storage space

Stayed in April 2023

No fridge or TV in room. No lock on bedroom door.

Great location near Stratford in gated development. For a homestay the accommodation is excellent - sizeable bedroom with garden access, iron/board etc, nice en suite with heating rack for clothes, private kitchenette with washing-machine. Host was friendly and very helpful.

Shabby location,poorly maintained area. Description not accurate. There was a lock on the main door,no lock on the bedroom door even though it was multi roomed,others in potential residence.East London being multi cultural ,depressed, and risk prone. You need to check those who make exaggerated claims of what they are offering as your reputation is governed by what you offer to potential clients and faithful long term clients.

Convenience

Stayed in July 2025

Easy to get from Stansted Airport. Stratford station is close (all means of transport available; railway, underground, overground, DLR, busses...) It is very easy to get into the centre of the city, because you have a lot of options and connections, and the trains go every few minutes. The place is lovely and clean. The bed was comfortable, it is in a safe location and it is a great place for that price. Michael, the owner is very nice and kind, always checking about your stay.

My daughter and I liked that the room had a private bathroom and a refrigerator, but most of all, we loved how easy it was to get there. There are several underground lines nearby, and the Jubilee Line starts (or ends) at Stratford. From there, you can take a bus that drops you off right at the corner of the house, which is located in a gated area. Michael is a very attentive, helpful, and above all, kind and respectful person. Without a doubt, I would stay here again. Thank you, Michael! Also, the place is very clean, and the price is amazing — especially for London. It also has a large shopping center nearby — Westfield.

There wasn’t lock in the door which made us very uncomfortable. Also the window in the bathroom couldn’t close properly so it was very cold (as cold as on the outside).

Everything looked exactly like in the photos.

Stayed in February 2025

Only thing is that there is no fridge.

The place was nicely cleaned. Michael answered questions quickly. It was very nice, thank you

The room did not have a lock It was rather dirty

I book it for the price, but it costed me more since I left earlier for how shitty it was

Stayed in September 2024

A lock on the door would be nice, as well as access to a fridge.

Good location, very kind and considerate hosts and the space was relatively private.

Stayed in January 2024

The place is not convenient at all. The bed is very stiff and pillows are very thin. The interior design of the room  is quite old-fashioned.  The shower didn’t even have shampoo nor body wash. They are a family so they live with kids, which means at 7:30 am You will hear feet stomping on the floor and since they leave on the upper floor you’re going to listen to every single noise they make. We found one huge spider in our bedroom and our first day, another one hanging from the ceiling of the bathroom. The windows don’t have a handle. They do, but they are broken. There is just one bedside table with without a lamp, what they have is a fan.

The house smells well at least.

Stayed in August 2023

The door has no lock, room is directly below a living area with presumably wooden floors. Last night I've spent there was interrupted by vacuuming at 11pm and what sounded like complete rearrangement of furniture. I told the owner I came to London for work and honestly wasn't pleased with the lack of consideration.

The room was nice, comfortable bed, large bathroom and a tea point if needed.

My second stay in this accommodation - absolutely nothing negative I can think of. Recommended!

Stayed in April 2023

The room and the bathroom were a bit too cold for people coming from warmer places like Italy. Some of the basic tools like shower-foam, hand-towels or hairdryer were missing. If I may suggest, it would be nice to have a bathroom fan heater, even a small one would be enough for the size of the bathroom. AFAIK the host just started doing this so I hope that he can get advantage from my feedbacks in a proactive way.

Price. Location near to the Stratford tube station (less than 10 minutes walking) like famous Jubilee line and the Stansted Airport. The host, is really a great person and a good host.

Stayed in December 2022

room is without a lock so you feel like there is no privacy of yours since anyone from the family that lives on the upper flors could enter that room anytime. nothing was mentioned about the check in and how to enter through the gates for the first time. kid is living upstairs so it could be quite loud for some people

good location
