Laila is very nice and friendly. She's responsive before we checked in and she tried to be very flexible with our check-in time. She gave us good advice on places to go and restaurants around.
The neighbourhood and the outside of the building is indeed a bit overwhelming, as the description says. The stairs smells funny. However the flat is spacious and stylish. Everything looks the same as the pictures despite the pictures look cleaner. I really like how big the room is as we can easily move around.
Shower is hot enough with good pressure.
Location is good because the flat is located on Victoria line. Although it's in Zone 2 but it's only few stations away from Central London. However it could be a little noisy as it's in the heart of Brixton, and in the middle of a market. There are several supermarkets around so it's very convenient to get anything you need.
It's good value for money after all.
