It’s our first time to use Homestay and i’m a little bit apprehensive about this but the place was the only decent and affordable place for an overnight stay in London at the time. The place is easy to find, very accessible for any transport but the house was very clean, the owner is very friendly and hospitable. Melek is lovely, very helpful. I will not hesitate to recommend Melek’s place if you want to stay in London.

Lovely person
Everything was fine, Terry is a lovely person, she and her husband made us feel at home. The bed was comfortable. I really recommend her.
Great website which helped me find the "home" I was looking for
I'm so glad I found a place to stay at, which feels just right. I'm so looking forward to my stay.Wouldn't have been possible without the website and all the good information I got about the different places.
I've had a great experience with the website so far. Also a very friendly support crew which helped me out when I had questions.
