pros: located nearby fantastic eateries (flour and grape, watchhouse bermondsey, maltby street market) supermarket (lidl, tesco), buses which brings you to central london
gibran was also very responsive leading up to check in, even though he was overseas during our whole stay.
very kind to allow us to store our luggage before check in and after check out which was very helpful for us. appreciated it.
cons: upon check in, only linen was changed and towels replaced and bin cleared. no vacuuming was done so thought that could have been included!
wanted to boil water with the kettle but it was not clean, had a grimy film inside. thankfully there were pots available so used those instead.
the frames under the mattress were loose and kept falling off. flush was weak, took a long time for the water tank to be refilled but feedback was given to gibran and he advised using a bucket of water to help with flushing if needed.
bathroom mat was dirty… had a lot of dust, debris and hair trapped within. for our own comfort we bought a lint roller to clean it ourselves whenever we had to use the bathroom.
key lock was a not easy to open and was struggling with it at first. needed to leave a small gap then lock can be opened. when informed gibran he sent a video which greatly helped, feel would have been good to have sent it before check in :)
tldr; overall a fair stay with a decent value. cleanliness and functionality of some things could be improved. host gibran seems a nice fella, we may have had a better experience if we had met him in person :)
