Enjoy a peaceful stay in a quiet Central London mews with a private bedroom and a dedicated guest bathroom. There are also 2 single sofa beds in the living room (shared space). The location is ideal, with Paddington, Hyde Park, Baker Street, Regent’s Park, Notting Hill, and Oxford Street all within easy reach. Nearby Paddington Station offers the Elizabeth Line and Heathrow Express directly to/from Heathrow Airport. Edgware Road provides multiple tube lines & buses for easy city exploration. Welcome to our charming mews home in the heart of Central London! You'll have a cosy private room with a very comfy MUJI double bed & mattress on the 2nd floor and a dedicated guest bathroom downstairs. The room is ideal for solo travellers or couples, and if you're traveling with children or young adults, we offer two additional single sofa beds in the living room on the 1st floor (shared space). While the room is serene and quiet, it's not very spacious, so if you have a lot of luggage, you may need to leave some in the living room. Our home is equipped with all the basic amenities, including blankets, pillows, shower gels & towels, toothpaste, slippers, a hair-dryer etc. We kindly ask that you be eco-conscious during your stay, such as turning off lights when not in use. Please note a few important details: 1. We have a friendly cat named Desi, mostly staying in our main bedroom but once in a while he will take a stroll in the rest of the house. 2. Our house has several narrow staircases. Large items might need to be left in the living room. 3. We rarely use our living room except for Fridays and Saturdays. 4. You're welcome to a light kitchen use, with a small personal fridge provided. Please refrain from extensive cooking, and from storing meat, seafood, or wine. But eggs, fish and beer are permitted. 5. Heating is available from November to March. 6. Sofa beds may not provide the same level of comfort as traditional beds. They tend to be firmer, which might not appeal to those who prefer a cushy, soft mattress. If you value plush comfort, a sofa bed might not be the ideal choice for you. In addition, they are in the living room which is a shared space! 7. Luggage drop-off is allowed. Please just let us know in advance. My husband and I will be sharing the space with you. We strive to make our home feel like your home too, and we look forward to hosting you in this delightful part of the city!
Sarah’s home is well-located in the city center but very quiet at night. Sarah and her husband are very nice people. They welcomed us upon our arrival and accommodated our late check-out. They also did everything they could to resolve the "incident" we encountered during our stay. We appreciate their efforts. Desi, the cat, is friendly too. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend it to other travelers.
