I recommend Melissa's lovely flat as a base for any trip to London. Located in up and coming Brixton with its legendary market, great shops and dining, the flat is on the ground floor of a large old house and is spacious and welcoming with a comfy bed and living room. Tube station (Victoria line) and buses are only moments walk, try the number 59 bus to bring you into Central London across Waterloo Bridge in less than 30 minutes. Melissa is a really friendly host whilst also letting you do your own thing which suited me perfectly!
