Myself and my mam stayed in Stephen's place for 5 nights and it was the perfect base for exploring London. Location was great, only a few minutes walk around the corner to Tower Bridge and a 10-15 minute walk to London Bridge Station - perfect for getting the tube or the train from the Gatwick, which is what we did. The flat was exactly as pictured and very clean, cozy and welcoming. The map on the wall with things to see marked on it was a nice touch! It was lovely and warm which was great when coming in out of the rain. I stayed on the sofa bed, easy to pull out and comfortable for sleeping. The flat is on the lower floor so bear this in mind if your sensitive to noise like my mam, the road can be busy at night but if you're used to city noises it shouldn't bother you.
Unfortunately Stephen couldn't be there to meet us for check-in but he sent very detailed instructions for how to pick up our keys and gave me a call after we'd picked them up to check that we found the flat okay and answer any questions we had. He gave us some great recommendations for things to do and places to eat, and kept in touch over the week with more recommendations which we found really helpful. Overall we had a brilliant time and a lot of that was down to having a great place like Stephen's flat as our base. Would definitely stay again and would recommend it to anyone, especially if you're looking to stay close to everything, but slightly outside the hustle and bustle of the city centre.
