This is a really great home, in vibrant Brixton. While a number of other guest reviews have mentioned noise -- and yes, there is a lot of activity, especially on weekends -- we never felt it disruptive. I would note though, that we have also lived in busy cities. The bell in the tower across the street does ring (which had caused us some concern from reading others' reviews) but does *not* ring through the night, and so was totally fine by us. The home itself is lovely: well appointed, and tastefully decorated with a sense of fun and artistic flair. The back deck is an absolute oasis -- a serene spot that is quiet and calm, in contrast to the hustle and bustle of the busy streets. Brixton itself is a fabulous location in terms of the local scene, as well as access to Central London. The Brixton tube station is the southern terminus of the Victoria Line; a short trip north to the Victoria Station hub connects travelers to many other lines. Bus access from Brixton is also excellent. We did experience a major inconvenience on the first night of our stay, which could have been entirely avoided with greater care by the management company, whose representatives neglected to notice that bedding for the third, pullout bed (a necessity for our 6-person group) had not been provided and was nowhere to be found. By the time we realized the issue it was early evening, at which point we could not get a response from the company in time to resolve the issue for the first night of sleeping. When they did respond the next day, the issue was resolved, but the stress it caused us the first night was unfortunate. The kitchen is beautiful and has plenty of conveniences, yet some of the high-use bathroom fixtures are truly overdue for replacement or attention. All of them *looked* in order at first glance; issues only presented themselves upon actual use. Using the hand held shower head revealed not only a huge water-spewing hole in its hose (the size of which indicating the issue was in no way new), but also that the metal bar holding the fixture to the wall was in fact rusted and detached at one end beneath the escutcheon. Showering and suddenly having things come apart on you is unsettling. The shower also had some drainage issues. I can't imagine these were things the management company was entirely unaware of (but who can really say), though it being a luxury property we surely did not expect these hitches. Now that they are fully aware, I do expect someone will attend to these issues. All told, we know no one and no place will be perfect all the time, the positives did outweigh the relatively few negatives, and overall we really did enjoy our stay. We do hope the management company will use this honest feedback constructively, as it was meant.
