Brixton is a very lively neighborhood and easy to get to the city via subway. There are many shops cafes and supermarkets within 5 min walk which is a huge plus. The pad is tiny but has everything a solo traveller needs. I like that there is a microwave and some cutleries which helped me save a lot of money. The only issue was the loud parties downstairs. The rum bar below has loud music from thursday to sunday. Other than that it's fantastic value for money.
