Guest Reviews
- Louise (10/5): - Elaine was lovely and very welcoming, let me drop my bags off early, she even did my laundry. And Daisy the dog was adorable. Nothing
- Martha (8/5): Goed -
- Anna (10/5): Csodálatos szállás Londonban - A szállás nagyon csendes környéken van. Bár viszonylag messze van a látnivalóktól, gyorsan és könnyedén be lehet jutni a városba tömegközlekedéssel. Sétatávra van a DLR, 2 metró és buszok is. A környéken van reggelizőhely és bolt is.
A házigazdánk nagyon kedves volt, a családját is megismertük, akik szintèn nagyon szimpatikusak. A kutyája is kifejezetten aranyos.
A szobánk picike volt, de mi pont elfértünk. Nagy bőrönddel azonban nem ajánlanám. Az ágy kényelmes, a szoba extrán felszerelt mindennel (a legfelszereltebb szállás, ahol eddig megszálltam). A tisztaság kiemelkedő volt.
A fürdő közös a másik szobával, de ez nem jelentett problémát.
A wifi jól működött. Minden szuper volt, amit érdemes foglalásnál észben tartani, hogy valaki lakásában száll meg az ember, a család ott él, ami számunkra kifejezetten kedves élmény volt. A felső szinten közlekedőket lehet hallani, kicsit recseg a padló este.
- PRATIKSHA (10/5): - Host is really polite and room is clean and tidy.everything was there which we needed.
Especially skin care which she added.😅💖 because I forget to get my cleanser and moisturiser.
- Parish (10/5): -
- Olga (10/5): We slept here for two nights. The bed was very comfortable, and the room was small but cozy. The lin - The house is very cozy, everything smells nice and is very clean. I didn't read the description carefully, and it turned out that the bathroom was shared between two rooms.
- Ida Marie (9/5): Beautiful house in a quiet neighborhood - A beautiful and cozy home in what might be quietest neighborhood I've ever experienced in London. It was very obvious how much the host cared for her house - it was very clean and beautiful, and she was very accommodating, even offering to help with the laundry! One of the prettiest homes I have been to. The rooms having their own fridge (with free water and snacks!) and coffee maker was a big plus.
The house is nearby to three different DLR stations, which was very handy.
Would definitely come back here again :) There is not a ton of free floor space, so it can get a bit cramped if you have big suitcases with you.
- Gemma (10/5): - It was pristine clean, smelt great and the host was very welcoming.
This is a room in somebody's house- not a private home/space but it's a gorgeous space and they really make you feel welcome.
It's not in the centre of London but is about a 20/25 minute walk to canary wharf which has transport links to anywhere you need. We had to wait for the bathroom quite a few times due to the other bedroom being booked out too.
- Veronika (10/5): Vítejte v Poplaru - Přímá lokalita Poplar, velmi milá paní domácí, výborně a funkční zatížení. Naplnilo všechna očekávání.
- Mark (10/5): -
- elia (8/5): The perfect place to sleep in London - Elaine is super nice and gentle.
Her house is clean, quite and easy to reach by public transport.
Impossible to be unsatisfied :) -
- Lienke (10/5): Cosy, homey and comfortable - We loved that it was so neat and tidy. Everything was clean and the amenities were great. The host, Elaine, is very kind and we had such a good time chatting to her. She is a great host and provided us with recommendations on where to go in the city and what to avoid. The location is very peaceful. The neighbourhood feels safe and there are 2 bus stops nearby for easy access to the central city of London. Loved staying with Elaine!
- Remco (10/5): Fantastisch home-stay-verblijf voor een city-trip! -
- Víctor (10/5): - Era súper cómodo. Estaba bien conectado a través del bus y del metro. Todo estaba muy limpio.
- Hugo (9/5): -
- Irina (10/5): Just as we expected - A very good location - 15 minutes walking till Canary Wharf; buses to lots of directions; 20 minutes by bus to O2 Arena. the hostess is very kind and helpful, she can explain where to go and how. The atmosphere is really like at home - you don't have to bring a charger for your phone, pads for cosmetics, for example... even micellar liquid is on the spot!! The bed is very comfortable, you can use the kitchen and all the utensils. Nothing to think about...
- Tai (10/5): - The host was very welcoming. And catering! Location is very central
- Lili (10/5): -
- Sefora (9/5): - La particolarità di una vera casa londinese...Elaine è stata molto disponibile e accogliente verso di noi.. condividevamo il bagno con un altra stanza ma tutto perfetto. C'è un cane in casa ma è molto bella e affettuosa :)..zona molto tranquilla e a 5 minuti vi sta la fermata del bus per il centro e a 10 min la metro
Acqua, caffè e tisane sempre a disposizione in camea Il letto è una piazza e mezza e in 2 si sta un po stretti.
- Sophia (10/5): Incredible stay, Elaine was an amazing host! Will definitely return. - Modern and clean facilities. Everything you may need is provided
- Oleksii (10/5): Exceptional -
- Akosah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lukas (10/5): Exceptional - Kind and generous hosts, coziness eleven out of ten, a very comfortable bed. Even though it looks a little far east, with Elizabeth line a walking distance away you can be in downtown in no time.
- Miha (10/5): Exceptional - The room was lovely and cozy, located in a cool neighborhood surrounded by a large park—perfect for enjoying breakfast outdoors! Our host, Elaine, was extremely friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The house was impeccably clean. There are also several shops just a few minutes’ walk from the property.
- Vu (10/5): Exceptional - We rarely leave reviews because most places are what is expected, or fell short somehow. But we want people to know that this place is a hidden gem. We almost don't want many people to know about this location because we want this home to be available when we return to London. After months of "automatically" Checking In to faceless accommodations, we recognized that having a host present to greet you made it very welcoming and comforting. On top of that, this private home was very organized, bright, and clean. We knew when we booked the room that it would be small in size, but the clean modern design made it felt roomy, and the view of the old church from the window made it very picturesque. The location of her home in Canary Wharf was in a very serene setting. It had a modern feel with a classic old world neighborhood charm. We absolutely loved walking around this neighborhood surrounded by the old and new buildings and open parks. The little touches with the coffee, teas, and variety of snacks in the room is an unexpected bonus. What we liked best was Elaine, our lovely hostess. She was available for information, recommendations, conversation, or needing assistance with the use of her kitchen. However, if you don't want any human interactions, we are sure Elaine will make herself invisible. She was very accommodating with our early arrival or late departure schedule by allowing us to store our luggage there. She treated us the way we wanted to be treated. A perfect Host.
- David (10/5): Everything was excellent. -
- Chelsea (10/5): Exceptional - We had a lovely stay, our host was very friendly and the room was clean with everything you could need.
- Nils (9/5): Elaine is incredibly helpful and the room was very comfortable. Thank you! -
- Narine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Santino (10/5): A home away from home! - Super host for a reason! Very lovely host and the property is well kept.
- Lmsilva (10/5): Exceptional -
- Petra (10/5): Perfect place to stay in London. - The home is just beautifully decorated, and Elaine is such a friendly and welcoming host.
you will find everything you need in the room, and the bed is very comfortable.
also, busstop are nearby and it's easy to get to the city center and O2 arena. Nothing!
- Agata (10/5): A comfortable place to wind down after a busy day in the city - I really liked the surroundings. The house is situated in a a series of semi-detached houses build along a U-shaped street which surrounds an old church (remodelled for residential purposes). This small complex of buildings is in turn located in a small park and very close to a canal. I imagine, it must be even more relaxing and picturesque in the sunnier months (I have visited beginning December). Also, I agree with alll the other positive impressions other guests had: the host is super friendly and approachable, the room was impeccably clean and the bed/mattress was very comfortable. I would like to be able to open the window myself (the windows had built-in 'locks') and so, I imagine, one would have to ask the host to open them.
- Robbe (10/5): Amazing and clean room to visit London - Very clean and cozy room. Even the shared bathroom was super clean.
Everything is provided, from towels and sheets, all the way to body cream and toothpaste. The room was on the smaller side, if you have a big luggage this might take in most of the free space in the room. However, there is a big wardrobe to store all your stuff.
- Jekaterina (9/5): Superb -
- Olumuyiwa (10/5): truly home away from home - everything was great nothing
- Eric (9/5): Superb -
- Alex (10/5): Perfect, will stay again in future. - From the second I walked through the door, Elaine made me feel very welcome. The house was beautiful and the room was perfect. Very clean. Some complimentary hot drinks and cold drinks in my room were a nice touch as well. The bed was also very comfortable.
Location was great. Elaine also has a very calm husky called Daisy who was a beautiful dog, but don't worry, stays completely out of your way if you are not a dog person!
Highly recommend and will return if visiting that area of London again in the future.
Alex Nothing.
- Filip (9/5): Superb -
- Viktória (10/5): A peaceful and cozy enviromnent in this huge city, returning here after a long day feels like home -
- Paula (10/5): Beautiful rooms and a wonderful host!! - The rooms are furnished with great attention to detail and are very clean. The bathroom is also very clean and tidy. Elaine is a wonderful host. She always has a great tip for us and takes very good care of her guests. In the evening we sat together and had a good time. We felt very welcome and would love to come back!
- Paula (9/5): Superb - Lovely quiet place to stay.
Very accommodating.
The host goes above and beyond to help you.
Very friendly
Location very good for DLR travel and Stratford/Olympic park.
And felt very safe when walking around. Not your own bathroom.
But next door to Your room and it was like your own house. Very clean.
- Durrin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jon (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nixon (10/5): Nice place and calm - Clean and various facilities Nothing to say
- Gary (8/5): Great location, away from the crowds for the O2 arena. - Very good room, immaculate accommodation. Many thanks,
- Justyna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paula (8/5): Very good -
- Cassandra (9/5): Spotless room in a quiet location - Elaine was a lovely host, the bedroom and bathroom were spotless and had nice little touches such as snacks and bathrobes provided. To be honest I was expecting this to be a full property rather than a room in someone's house. Therefore there were other guests in another bedroom and the hosts in the living area etc. It wasn't an issue for us really as we were out of the house most of the time, but something to note perhaps if you plan on spending more time in the living space.
- Therese (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was excellent and Elaine is an amazing host :)
Clean , beautiful house and lovely company:) Everything was great ,would definitely stay again !
- John (10/5): Wonderful Place and I would recommend it to family and friends - Elaine has a beautiful home and a welcoming spirit. The room was exactly as described and the bed was very comfortable. Although the room is small, there is plenty of closet space to store lots of travel items. The bathroom is private and beautifully decorated but it is accessed outside the room in the hallway. Elaine was a wonderful host and provided advice on where to go and the best ways to get there. There were snacks and candies provided in the room and all the toiletries you might need. The entire property was super clean and organized. My wife and I stayed for four nights and we felt very safe and comfortable in this part of town. Thank You Elaine for a perfect place to rest. The temperature control knob in the shower was almost impossible to turn. It was stuck in the hot position and took some effort to get it to an agreeable temperature but when I notified Elaine, she was aware of it and said it would get fixed.
- Lucie (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was so perfect! Room was nice clean and the shared bathroom as well and the place is well accessible to the city center. Elain is so kind and helpful and Daisy is the nicest dog :-). I also recommend the cafe in the park near the house. Nothing.
- Chris (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kristýna (10/5): Perfect stay for a great value - Altougth the room was very tiny, it was very cozy and equipped with everything we needed. Perfectly clean as well as spacious bathroom where you could got all amenities you needed. Elaine was a very good host who gave us valuable advice and we really felt like at home coz of her care. Reasonable walking distance to DLR and buses as well as Lidl and Tesco and other shopping places and restaurants.
- Louise (8/5): Great location for the O2 centre which was what we needed and very quiet for a good nights sleep - Very friendly helpful host and nice clean comfortable room and bathroom The bedroom was very small with little headroom for walking around the bed
- Emer (10/5): As high standard as a hotel and as comfortable as your own home! - Home away from home couldn’t be more true for this gem, Elaine and Colin (and Daisy!) were so friendly and welcoming and thought of everything to ensure a comfortable stay. I really felt for all the unexpected extras that were included (snacks, coffee machine, essential toiletries) as well as the quiet but so well connected location and most comfortable bed (best sleep), it was miles ahead of a hotel stay. Value for money was exceptional and an added bonus was the bus routes to central/ West End/ Bethnal Green areas were regular and saved a lot of money on tube travel. Absolutely no doubt, this is a home away from home in London- can’t wait to visit again! Nothing
- Matt (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic Host. N/A
- Veronica (10/5): Wonderful host and beautiful property - Everything, incredibly clean and comfortable. You have everything you need (including delicious coffee!). It's close to many stations and cafes. The bathroom was perfect Nothing
- Anton (9/5): Superb -
- Vytaute (10/5): Exceptional - Very good location, owners is excellent woman. She helps me and advise me a lot . Also safe area, calm area. Everything. Next time I will come again definitely.
- Modupe (10/5): Elaine, she’s the best honestly. A super host, amazing personality, very kind always ready to help. She is beautiful in - Extremely tidy! Clean and perfect
- Diana (10/5): Lovely stay in Canary Wharf - Everything was perfect, we were very well received. The entire house was very clean and organized. The location was great with 3 different tube/dlr stations at walking distance. Elaine, the owner, was very charismatic and didn't let us miss anything and, on top of that, she helped us with the directions, showing us the best way to get to turist spots in the easiest way possible! She tidied up our room every day and restocked coffee, tea and snacks ☺️ We will definitely stay again.
We highly recommend it!
We leave this review as our sincere thanks. Nothing bad to say about it
- Sundar (8/5): Very good - Elaine is truly a magnificent host. We had to leave our luggage very early in the morning as we're travelling to Warner bros studios and she obliged to help us. In addition, her hospitality of checking our travel plans, helping with the kitchen, laundry etc were truly homely. There were no problems with bathroom, that was very spacious.
The location is excellent with walking access to bus stop that'll take you to the tube station. 1. We felt the room was a tad small for two travellers to stay at the same time. Some additional luggage space would help. Travellers to book the larger room if you're travelling as a couple.
2. The bed has soft mattresses. We're used to sleeping on hard beds so travellers to assess this aspect too.
But otherwise a great place. Above is just a feedback.
- Andrew (10/5): Exceptional - Host were amazing couldn't do enough for you
- Leon (10/5): Exceptional - The host Elaine was really helpful and always got back to us with any queries. Accommodation was spotless and really quiet. Hidden gem and would definitely stop again.
- Ken (10/5): Exceptional - The staff was so friendly and told us useful information like transportation or places to visit.
- Anonymous (10/5): Very good value for money - The place was amazing, was very close to where we wanted to visit. Elaine was lovely and offered so many complimentary goodies. No complaints here!!!
- Sara (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent staff and place
- Alice (10/5): Comfortable place and very friendly host - I liked how nice and helpful Elaine was. She provided a lot of information about the transport, about what to visit. It really helped us save time and money.
She welcomed us with drinks and we could also have breakfast in her kitchen. We enjoyed talking and getting to know each other. We also had tea, coffee, drinks, coffee machine and a water heater in the room, fridge with drinks, biscuits and plenty of toilet things, even tooth paste.
The house is in a calm place, near the park with a view to a beautiful old church turned into a flat building. I liked everything.
- Camila (10/5): Exceptional - During my return visit, Elaine's warm welcome and her thoughtfulness in remembering my preferences continued to make this place stand out. The room remained as inviting as ever, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Their ongoing attention to amenities added a personal touch that enhanced the overall experience.
The house's impeccable cleanliness still shone, and its location beside Canary Wharf was even more convenient as a returning visitor. Elaine's guidance remained a valuable asset, making navigation a breeze.
I'm absolutely coming back, this house continues to impress in every way!
- Rolando (10/5): Nice and comfortable room to stay in London. - The room is really comfortable and clean. It is really close to some public transportation points and host is really gentle and always attentive to your needs. Really recommend this room is you are looking for a nice and safe place to stay in London.
- Omotayo (8/5): Very good -
- Mark (10/5): Exceptional - First of all, I want to note the hospitality of the hostess Elaine. All 10 days we felt at home. We had a well-equipped kitchen, coffee machine, dishwasher and washing machine at our disposal. The room we lived in was very cozy, a comfortable bed and a warm duvet and big wardrobe. A large bath in which we had shampoos, shower gels and everything we needed. The house is located in a very quiet place, we had a great night's sleep. The house is kept constantly clean. Elaine also gave us good recommendations on what to visit. In general, thanks to the hostess we were even sadder to leave London. nothing complain about
- Joe (10/5): Excellent many thanks an awesome host!! - Was just like being home away from home and perfect for what I needed.
The host goes the extra mile to make you feel at home and sometimes it’s the little extra touches that makes the difference.
Very highly recommended and would be my go to accommodation in London.
Thankyou for an amazing stay!! Nothing to dislike was a perfect stay
- Camila (10/5): I will definitely be returning for future stays! - My stay at this house was a dream! The room was incredibly cozy and the bed was like sleeping on a cloud. Thoughtful touches like bathrobes, towels, and refreshments made me feel pampered. They even provided handy extras like make-up remover and cotton buds, which showed their attention to detail. The house was stylish and impeccably clean.
Being beside Canary Wharf was a fantastic experience. So many dining and shopping options nearby. Elaine’s warm hospitality added a personal touch to my trip. Plus, the convenience of great transportation options made getting around a breeze.
- Micanovic (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jorge (10/5): 100 percent recommend it! - My stay in the property was unbelievable, so comfortable,the house is spotless,conveniently located in the middle of a beautiful park and 5 mins from DLR station, 15 minutes from Canary Wharf tube station.

I will never stay anywhere else when I am in london that's for sure.
Thank you so much. Nothing to say
