We spent 9 days in Van's apartment as a young family of 4. Enjoyed it very much. Apartment was clean, comfortable and well equipped, plenty of space for the kids. Nice kids playground/park just around the block, Thames path only 5 minutes away (great for walking and running), Battersea park (small zoo and climbing park) in walking distance. Battersea High Street area is well connected with buses and has plenty of food options.
Van was a great host and we were lucky to be able to check-in early and store bags when leaving. Thanks Van!
