This was my first experience using Airbnb and, honestly, I was very impressed. St. John was fantastic right from the start, always replying to messages promptly and never hesitating to answer my stupid questions.
When we arrived, we were immediately greeted by St. John, who offered to carry my bag up, and then showed us around and offered drinks. He made us feel right at home, and staying with him was like visiting a friend even though we'd never met. He was somehow attentive without being overbearing - I honestly don't know how he managed it!
The view from his terrace is out. of. this. world. No picture can do it justice, and really you just need to see for yourself! We even had the binoculars and telescope out to pick out different London landmarks on the horizon - so much fun.
My husband and I were in Brixton for a gig, so we had a late night - the bed waiting for us at 2am was so comfortable and such a relief after a long day.
No doubt we'll look to St. John if/when we find ourselves in the area again!
