    My wife and I traveled to London celebrating our 43rd wedding anniversary. There was good communication before the arrival, and we were provided with clear directions from Heathrow airport to the house and offer to be picked up at the train station (only 3 or 4 blocks away) if it were raining. Upon arrival we knew this was going to be a great experience. Maria and Oliver treated us as family and that is the relationship we had until our departure. Maria prepared an authentic British breakfast and we could have had breakfast with them everyday if so we wanted, but really we were very eager to run to downtown London for most of the day. Nevertheless, the refrigerator and its contents were available for a quick snack.
    During our conversations we got invaluable insights on the culture, foods, transportation, places to visit, you name it. It is really difficult to summarize in a few lines how nice they were, and how they constantly looked after our comfort. The accomodations were just as described in the booking and the location has accessibility to lots of great restaurants, supermarkets, to other cities including downtown London through several buses and train with frequencies around 5-8 min and travel time to the center of the city in about 15 min.
    All in all I wholeheartedlly recommend staying with Maria and Oliver. If we get to travel again we certainly will.

    Thank you to Oumar (Maria) and Oliver for letting me stay in your homely abode, and a super thank you to Danielle for making my stay in London all the more worthwhile!

    Nothing to fault with my experience; Danielle went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable and living my best life over my 5 weeks in London.

    I hope to one day return to visit and say hi, to the 3 cute little cats too

    We were so happy to meet Maria and her family! They are so open hearted and helpful people.Their house is located in a nice neighborhood actually not far from the city center. The room was nice and comfortable!Every morning Maria cooked a very delicious real English breakfast for us which included sausages, bacon, eggs,tomatoes, cereal, juice ,tea etc. We spent evenings just chatting and discussing many interesting issues. My son had a chance to play several games of chess with Oliver who used to be a school chess champion. The family lives music,so we had a lot in common in this sense. Next time we come we'll definitely stay with them again! !!We loved them so much!

    We had a lovely stay with Maria and her Family. They live in a beautiful old house and have a wonderful Garden with good smells Roses. It's difficult to find the house because the property is between houses. And it's in Zone 3 but near a station so we walked ibly 5 minutes and we had good Transport connections from the Station. We had the room with own bathroom. It was nice and good. We slept well. The breakfast was wonderful and better than in every Hotel. She ask every day what we want and answer our wishes. We had a mixture of British and international breakfast. She makes scones and clottedcream at the last morning. And we are very thankful because we planed our Tour in the evening and they gave us very good Tips, Information and Ideas.

    Although we only stayed one night we were made to feel very welcome. It will certainly be our first choice next time we are looking for accommodation in London
