Dennis’s place is honestly amazing! The dude has lived in Brixton for over 20 years, so he is a wealth of knowledge with regard to that neighborhood.
Dennis was on holiday when my flight arrived, so I didn’t meet him until a few days later, but everything was extremely easy to navigate. When I arrived to the flat, the room was prepared beautifully, and since I arrived on Christmas morning, Dennis even left me a nice box of mince pies as a gift! There are several guidebooks for your reading pleasure, many toiletries stocked up, remote-controlled lights, and automatic lights throughout the rest of the house.
The flat is right in the heart of Brixton and super close to the Victoria line on the tube, which gets you anywhere very easily (Piccadilly Circus, Oxford Circus, Leicester Square, and many other places). Brixton has a ton to offer, though. So, don’t sleep on Brixton! There are several markets right next door on electric avenue that sell very cheap produce, so you don’t have to break the bank to eat every day (which is very possible- such amazing food in London). I highly recommend Dennis’s place. You can’t beat the location in terms of easy access.
