Nice place but doesn’t feel particularly welcoming. The host seems to want all the benefits of Airbnb’ing, without any of the downsides...You’re in someone else’s home, but it feels like they don’t really want you there :/
Difficult communication initially and then as soon as you check in you’ll receive a fairly direct message with an extensive set of rules, some of which seem a bit much (such as ‘no showering after X time) and several reminders that ‘this is not a hotel’.
No access to the lounge, or the washer, so becomes a bit tricky if you’re staying longer than a couple of days.
Also a few things that should really be fixed, such as my door didn’t have a handle, so had to awkwardly open it using the key as a lever each time.
On the flip side, the flat was always warm, the bed was comfortable and the location was good (very close to Waterloo and Southwark). Also nice to have a few basic bits available for breakfast.
