Carol a été adorable. Elle est même venue me chercher à la gare avec sa fille malgré sa santé défaillante et elle est de très bon conseil pour organiser les déplacements et les visites dans Londres ce qui n'est pourtant pas aisé. Je garderai un très bon souvenir de mon séjour chez elle.

El piso está a 5 minutos andando de la estación de tren de Hackney Down y los trenes desde allí a Liverpool St salen cada 15 minutos. Carol es un cielo de persona. Nos trató con mucho cariño y amabilidad, especialmente a nuestra hija de 11 años, a la que corregía cuando decía algo mal en inglés para que aprendiera a decirlo correctamente. Esperamos tener la ocasión de volver a verla nuevamente. Pasamos unos días muy agradables.

Carol was excellent, she took care of me like my real mother, she always spoke English with me and helped me to improve. Every day she prepared different types of breakfast and explained their origins. In the evenings she used to tell me about the British Culture, we discussed about our day and she offered a cup of tea.
There are many transports near the apartment, it is very convenient.
The house is cosy, I stayed in the bedroom, there is an option to stay in the sofabed in the living room as well.
I recommend this home stay, London isn't a cheap city, and homestay is a good option for people who are looking for an economical and family environment.
