Hubby and I stayed here for only 3 nights after vacationing in Paris. After having the ritzy Paris experience we just wanted something a little more homey for our stay in London...

This Bright Studio in Buzzing Brixton was cool! It was clean, we actually ran into the cleaning woman upon checking, which, was a great sign. The apartment was a lil worn, shower was a bit awkward, but it was clean, so no real complaints.

Ran into April upon checking in and while dining in her restaurant on the first floor. She seems pleasant, but reserved. Never had the opportunity to really chat with her. Our experience was as expected. Nothing more. Nothing less. It was a great location although next time I'd probably stay closer to the Center of London. Catching the train everyday was a bit tiring...But again this was probably becuase we were exhausted by this time in our European vacation.

However, Brixton is absolutely buzzing. Never felt like my safety was in jeopardy. I live in a similar neighborhood in Philadelphia. Great restaurants, bars, boutiques, etc. The gentrification in this area is REAL! You can clearly see the difference between the day time and night time It's a lil disheartening, having spoken to a few vendors, and small shop owners who shared with us the difficulty of dealing with the shift in demographic. It was a very interesting experience.

Would recommend this place!
