I loved this clean, modern, ultra-stylish apartment. There's a master bedroom with a large, comfy bed and large screen TV and a smaller second bedroom that is air-mattress ready. Both rooms have plenty of closet and drawer space. The living room has a flat screen TV with Netflix. The bathroom has a spacious tub/shower with removable shower head. I guess you would call this a Smart Apartment; it features on/off electrical outlets, low-flow plumbing, and energy-saving washer/dryer. Knowing there were laundry facilities (also provided: iron and board, drying rack, towels) not only on-site, but in the actual apartment, helped me pack lightly, as I knew I could launder what I had.
There's a full kitchen with large fridge/freezer, oven, glass stove top, microwave, toaster, coffee (cappuccino maybe? I'm not a coffee drinker...) machine, and dishwasher. I don't really cook so I can't attest to the oven or stove, but they looked very clean and modern. I would've loved a blender to make smoothies...
The location is super convenient as it is lazy-person-close walking distance to both the Catford train station and the Catford Bridge train station. A Sainsbury's Local (open 7-11) is literally downstairs in the same building. Hint: uber drivers can get confused about the address. I found it was much easier to tell them to pick-up/drop-off at the Catford Train Station which is just off the main road, but only an additional 25 or so steps to your front door. Trains from Catford Bridge station to London Bridge station only take 10-15 minutes and from London Bridge, you can connect to anywhere.
The building looks relatively new. It's very well-maintained, secure (via keypad, video buzz-in) and having an elevator was great. I never heard my neighbors unless I was on the balcony, and even then, very infrequently.
I arrived a day before London was hit with the hottest few days in British history and the two fans in the apartment were the only thing that got me through. Thank you, Ben!
I had an amazing one-month stay in Catford and loved every minute of it. I'd happily stay forever :D
