I just spent four days in London visiting my daughter who lives in Brixton and staying at Lisa's flat. I highly recommend staying there! The neighbourhood is not right in the center of London but the tube (Victoria line) takes you downtown in no time. From the apartment, buses go to the tube station although it takes only 20 mns of a leisurely walk to get there. Brixton Village, close to the underground station, is very colourful and pleasant with its shops, boutiques, cafés, and the Ritzy Cinema!
Lisa's apartment is on a very quiet street and building. It is on the second and top floor (no lift). It's a simple but comfortable and spacious enough flat, with a nice king bed. It has an East-West exposure with big windows that let the light in. It's clean and pleasant.
Lisa is a wonderful and cheerful host who made my arrival and departure easy. She was punctual. Communication was smooth, Lisa answered very quickly my messages. When I left and realized I had forgotten my ring inside the flat, she came back from her work to open the door for me! Thank you very much Lisa for your hospitality, I would happily come back to stay at your place!
