Marcus was a terrific host and despite his absence from the apartment he was in constant contact over email and SMS to ensure that my stay went smoothly. The apartment was in terrific shape, was very clean, and was the perfect size for my needs. Marcus also went out of his way to provide suggestions and directions to sights/eats/etc. around the city. The apartment is located in Bermondsey, right on the southern side of the Thames. Unlike other posters, I found the area to be very quiet and the building itself was very quiet as well. There were plenty of restaurants and pubs nearby, and transport was a breeze - one of the city buses stops literally in front of his door, and the Bermondsey/London Bridge/Tower Hill tube stations were a short walk away. I would highly recommend this apartment to any of my friends who visit London in the future, and I would certainly stay here again if I am in town! Thanks Marcus!
