This was a terrific place for 3 friends and I to stay for 2 weeks while attending a course. Location is great - short walk to Elephant & Castle tube station, easy walking distance to Waterloo station, and lots of decent pubs nearby. Across the street from the Imperial War Museum. 20 minutes' walk to Westminster Bridge and Houses of Parliament, and convenient to the South Bank promenade.

The house is neat - well maintained, clean, great bathrooms, and a nice kitchen that is well equipped. There are lots of stairs (pretty much a flight between every room), but the rooms are all a good size, and it is nicely furnished and decorated in a clean, modern style. Pictures reflect things well.

Laila, and Robert the house manager, were easy to get a hold of, responsive to any issues, and arranged cleaning of the house halfway through our stay.

There is a bit of noise from the busy road outside, but not enough to bother any of us significantly (maybe bring earplugs if you're a light sleeper). We felt safe walking in the neighbourhood.

I'd happily stay here again if I was planning a long-ish stay in London.
