Not recommended. The host was pickey about cleaning the washbasin after every wash even if to wash off toothpaste and saliva. I spent sleepless nights as the heating was intense even at the lowest level. It had to been turned off completely a few days after my arrival which did not help as the room got cold. I was told that I was noisy with my phone calls at different times even though I was in my closed room. The host charged me for laundry each time although it was stated that the washing machine could be used once a week. I felt the host was intolerant of her house guest and only concerned about her own needs.

Clothilda me disponibilizou seu homestay somente após as 18 hs do dia 15 de julho, não me dando explicações mesmo eu pedindo. Aceitei porque precisava de 3 dias. Tive que pedir aos meus anfitriões anteriores umas horas a mais . Ao chegar combinei com ela de sair às 15 horas do dia 18 e ela pediu para eu colocar então a chave por baixo da porta ao sair pois ela não estaria em casa. Fiquei surpreso quando ela veio até meu quarto no dia 17 a noite me avisar que eu teria que sair as 10 da manhã. Eu argumentei que tínhamos combinado e que eu tinha 3 diárias e ela disse que não, que eu tinha 3 pernoites e que não importava ter entrado após as 18 hs no dia 15, e que se eu precisasse mais horas deveria ter avisado antes pagando uma taxa extra. Pedi que fosse pelo menos até as 14 horas mas ela deu o ultimato de sair até as 12 horas. Mandou eu ler as regras do site Homestay, dizendo que nenhum hóspede libera o quarto depois das 10 da manhã. Busquei essas regras mas não as encontrei. Posso estar errado, claro e por favor me informe se essa regra existe. Li e lá diz que paguei por 3 diárias, mas não há horários impressos. Creio ter então que haver acordo anterior entre anfitrião e hóspede.
Tenho 66 anos e já viajei muito e não lembro de uma outra saia justa dessa. Sempre há os acordos cumpridos ou conversados. Mesmo em hotéis, para adequar os horários de avião chegamos a bom termo.
A casa em si é boa, tudo novo e bem limpo. O banheiro também bem limpo e asseado. O quarto tem uma cama de solteiro, uma estante usada totalmente pela dona. Minha mala ficou no chão sem ser desmanchada, afinal apenas 3 dias. Tem uma tv que ajuda a passar as horas a noite.
Perguntei sobre os acessos ao bairro mas ela disse não entender nada de trens. Pesquisei e vi que os horários de acesso ao centro são bem longos chegando a 40, até 50 minutos da Southern Railway. Utilizei então as linhas de onibus que apesar de mais demoradas são mais frequentes.
A cozinha completa mas liberada apenas para a dona da casa. Me permitiu usar o micro ondas. Café da manhã simples com chá ou café, mas consegui leite e pão.
Apesar de ela ter liberado até as 12 horas saí as 11 horas do dia 18, pois teria que cancelar meus compromissos da manhã de qualquer forma, pois fiquei muito "sem chão" e fui ficar num banco da Russel Square até as 15 horas e 30 minutos esperando minha filha para ir ao aeroporto. Me senti com sorte pois só choveu após as 17 horas....
São desencontros da vida...não sabemos os motivos, os porquês!
Estive em dois outros 2 homestays nessa jornada em Londres nessa temporada completamente diferentes, conversando muito e até jantando junto com meus anfitriões com despedida até emotiva por ambos os lados sem problemas de hora de chegada e saída rígidas.
Isso é que enriquece nossas viagens. Convivências diferentes....positivas ou negativas....July 2017

Clothilda is very friendly despite a busy life. She is very active but took the time to inquire about my needs. The room is comfortable & I had access to everything I could dream of for a short stay. Clothilda's house is quite nice, very well located (train, public transport, shops, supermarkets) & in a nice environment. I will not hesitate to ask her hospitality again.
