    It's not something I didn't like but it would've been great that the room had air conditioner or a fan.

    Good location, staff was very kind. They left some water bottles in our room which was much appreciated because of the heat. The bed was comfortable.

    nothing!! just be careful with the google maps and follow the owners directions :) which isn’t an issue with the property itsself, but google maps.

    Owner was super polite and supplied directions! and trust me , follow his directions lol, google maps doesn’t take u to the area but he gave clear instructions in the initial message. clean room, clean towels and even our own soaps and bottles of water which was a nice touch after travelling all day! Room had a smart tv, and each room has a lock and code. 7 minute walk to phonox / brixton o2 academy, and probably about 10-13 minute walk to the tube. If i’m ever in the area again I will rebook.

    The area can be a bit rough around the edges. Though once you get used to it, it’s no problem. However, I take issue with the lack of a fan! Seriously hot during the heatwave.

    Very near O2 Brixton Academy, and I mean very. Very easy to find. Instructions from host are clear

    Very minor point, but directions could have been a bit clearer, but still a good stay. Skate park was a good reference point.

    Nice room in a shared flat. Was a good and clean place to stay for the night. Shared access to full kitchen with fridge/microwave/etc. Good bathroom facilities.

    The location was a little bit of a hassle but if you don't mind a short 5-10 minute walk its perfect.

    The house was pleasant and the room was superb, came with TV, very fast WiFi, and the bed was large and comfortable.

    The locks on the doors were fiddly so you panic a bit thinking you can't get in. Old Skool flat in a block.

    The location was spot on and 10min away from Brixton tube and close to all of the amenities including Brixton Academy for any concert goers. There is a great little authentic Portuguese restaurant right by it as we are very close to Little Portugal. I would go again.

    The room was comfortable and use of the well- stocked kitchen was appreciated. The bathroom was well set up; we had no inconvenience despite sharing it with two other rooms. Bus stops or metro stations were a short walk away for ease of transport into London city. It was just a short walk to a local hotel or cafes. Ronald was helpful and easily contacted.

    It was good stay overall, but the flat needs a fresh up. The floor wasn’t tidy at all, and they a need general tidying as some things were dusty. Also toilet seat needs to be fixed, the coffee machine wasn’t working and there was only cold tap water in the kitchen. And there was few issues with keys, but got there in the end

    Directions were explained very detailed on how to get to the apartment. Kitchen was well equipped. Bed was very comfortable, I got a very good sleep. They even put water bottles which was great.
