My review is based on the "what you see is what you get" principle. There are no tricks. The room is a bit far from down town area but it is close to a train station (and you can get anywhere by train in London) and it is only 2 train stations from London Bridge, so it is not so bad after all.
The room is clean. It does not have many ammenities, just the bed and one closet. The shared bathroom is nice and clean and so is the kitchen. Scott is a great host! Very friendly and always willing to give you a good advice on what to do. I highly recommend this room, especially to solo travelers.
