On arrival, the flat is exactly as it looks in the pictures. Melinda and Jon were very kind in accommodating us when the bad weather changed our arrival time radically and the place was spotless when we arrived. The groceries that were provided were really helpful and a very nice touch. The toiletries in the bathroom were also much appreciated. The flat is lovely and warm and we enjoyed snuggling up on the sofa with the blanket provided.
There are lots of bars and restaurants near by, which was a God send in the poor weather. We never had to walk for more than five minutes to find somewhere great to eat. We can reccommend Numidie, just up the road and Gurkha Cottage, not far away. We also had some lovely take away Jamaican food from Tasty Flavours Caribbean Kitchen on Anerley Road, near Crystal Palace station and the amenities in the flat meant that we could eat take out food easily and enjoy a cosy evening in with the excellent Hitchcock boxset.
This was a lovely place to stay and we will certainly use it again when visiting London.
