I live in Central London, which is close to all amenities, such as Westfield shopping mall, BBC, famous Imperial College, Portobello Market, Notting Hill Gate, kensington high Street, Harrods, Museums, Cinema's, Exclusive Restaurants, Theatres, etc. The nearest underground station is White City ( Central line), Ladbroke grove (Hammersmith & City Line), both 10 minutes walk from the Flat and Kensal Green (Overground). it only takes 15 minutes on the train to central London. London heathrow is 10 kilometres away. There are lots of buses available, in the area, ranging from buse's 7,70,316,228,52,295,220,283,72, the list goes on.
Its a lovely quiet flat with two double rooms, one bathroom/toilet, spacious Kitchen with dining area. The double room has a big double bed, for one person or a couple. The room is quiet with no road noise.
The accommodation is strictly for tourist, workers working AWAY from home, Students on internship and professionals. It is not suitable for people who will stay at home all day to use the space to look for a job or research as this puts a bit of strain on our utility. I take my time to assist my host, by reassuring them of their safety in the city, and sharing my local knowledge with them.
I love meeting people from different cultural background, I learn from them and they learn from me. I respect and appreciate people.
I have a grown up son. He his a Pharmacist but He works away from home.
Students on internship are welcome,Parking space is available for those with a car, at a cheap rate per day.

I had one of the best trips in my life. There are three main reasons you should stay with Cynthia. One: She is extremely hospitable and does whatever she can to make your stay great. Two: Her property is in a great location that grants quick access to several parts of the city. Three: The rooms are spacious and always clean.

Cynthia was the perfect host! Very caring and respectful. Her clean and cosy home is situated in a very nice and calm area. It's easy to reach most sightseeing spots from there. It's close to the Central Line, Hammersmith & City Line, Circle Line... and the famous Portobello Road Market is just a little walk away.
