Sorry silviaP, that is cheap but that is not a very good solution. It is VERY far outside the center of London where all the major sites are. It will take a lot of time to get anywhere and the extra transport costs will add ££.
It would take approximately 45 minutes to get to the Tower of London for instance.

Meant to add - if you were staying longer then maybe that would make sense - in a week you'd have more time to explore and the savings would add up.
But you have such a short time to see London and you will have long commutes to get to most places from West Acton.

There would be this other solution:
http://www.hostelworld.com/hosteldet...3#availability
It is an hostels...
I prefer the other (https://www.airbnb.it/rooms/1083702) because is more safe, nice and "civil"
But in the hostel (wich is in the center!) is more simple to met peaple and speack english. Is more simple to go out in the night because is more central...
What do you think about? The choice is yours!

Silvia, either of those looks good. The airbnb place is pretty and I really like Marylebone. However, I do think staying at the hostel would be very safe, very central, and very easy to find people to speak English with.
You have found two good options. Good luck choosing, and please come back and tell us about your trip.

Hi everyone!
I was in London, finally! I wanted to tell you that it was perfect: I've chosen the YHA hostel and it was ok! It was very central (next to Oxford Street, clear, safe and comfortable. Kind and nice staff! I suggest it!
Thank you all for advices, help and kindness with me.
Ciao ciao
PS Next week I'll be in Madrid...Now, I know where go
