Maryann is a lovely host! You can tell there's so much love in this family house while getting the privacy you require. The room worked out perfectly for me as a solo traveller and I can imagine it could work well for a couple who wants to stay in Croydon for a couple of nights too. Plenty of storage space offered. Fast wifi. Suuuper comfy bed and the cuddliest cat :) (I'd bring a lint roller next time!). Very clean bathroom. A minute away from the local tram stop that takes you to central Croydon in 10-12 min and less than 10 min walk from the local Tesco. For travellers who are not too familiar with London, it does make a travel time to Zone 1 a bit longer but if this is something you don't mind compromsing for given the attracitve price it shouldn't be much of a problem. I was pleasently surprised when I realised it was a nice, quiet 30 min walk away from Norwood Junction and the South Norwood park. Gem!
