Can you recommend a quiet, cheap hostel room or B&B in London or SE UK where I can rest for a week and get over jetlag?
I'm flying back to the UK next week and have got horrific jetlag in the past. I'm looking for somewhere to hide and sleep on a backpacker budget.
So looking for a private room that's not noisy with potential for sleeping in the daytime as well as night.
If the surroundings are nice it would be a bonus.
If you can take a couchsurfer and want a bit of cash then let me know as long as it's peaceful.

You might want to look here if you want. Prices run from about £15 a night.
I don't know what their policy is on kicking you out for the day, though. You'd have to ask.

Hostels might expect you to share a room and not stay there all day. As it's off season you might get a deal at a hotel or B&B.

I've stayed at the London House Hotel a few of times and it's fairly inexpensive (or at least it used to be, but it's been three years since I last stayed there - almost to the day!), mostly (albeit, not always infallibly) quiet, and located in a good neighbourhood (Kensington Market) with good pubs and restaurants nearby. It's also pretty easy to get to via the Heathrow Express + Tube (Express to Liverpool, tube to Bayswater Station).

Sorry, I also meant to post that you can get single rooms, sometimes with a shower/bathroom inside, and they don't care how long you stay there. It's called a hotel, but it's actually more of a hostel, just with the option of having a room to yourself.
