    Staying at Heidi's home was a delight. Exactly the reason I prefer homestay to any other booking website; a home away from home! I felt very welcome, had a lovely room, clean private bathroom and the fabulous roofterrace to relax. Thank you Heidi. I had a wonderful time and gained a friend!

    Heidi is a lovely host. Her home is comfortable and exciting with a unique collection of art and wonders from around the world. Islington is a quaint and charming area of London. Highly recommend this hidden gem.

    Heidi was a fantastic host, very welcoming and accommodating. Her home is so peaceful and relaxing, in a safe location and very close to many transport links to get into Central London. It was my first homestay after relocating to London for a job, and Heidi was so helpful throughout my stay and ensured I knew where I was going. Thank you Heidi, it was a pleasure to meet you and thank you for all of your help!

    I loved staying with Heidi! She is very kind and pleasant to talk with. The space was comfortable and clean. There are stairs connecting entry to living and living to bedrooms, but I didn’t mind them. I loved the character and the opportunity to stay in a classic London townhouse. Also, it’s located very near a park and coffee shops, restaurants, grocery. I would definitely stay with Heidi again next time I’m in London!
