While we did not get to meet our host in person (she was away in Italy) the following is useful:
1) Location - convenient to local stores, bus stops, and the DLR in Woolich
2) People - most excellent - a busy house, which had the feel of a student digs, but with all individuals being most considerate, pleasant, and while respectful of privacy, also willing to engage and be social.
3) Amenities: All good. Only exception being lack of a microwave, due to concerns from certain housemates regarding "irradiation"
Troublesome, but not a showstopper.
4) Value for money: Excellent
5) Child-friendly - not. While totally suitable for a single person or couple, i would not recommend this location for anyone who has a small child.
6) Overall impressions: Excellent location, great flat-mates, busy, good value, and great vibe. Especially if you enjoy music, discussions about politics, chess, literature, and having clever people to talk to.
7) Smoking house, with good wifi and relaxed atmosphere. Not good if you have an OCD nature or insist that the kitchen is spotless before retiring to bed.
