I stayed with my friend for a week (both 20 y) at Dominique’s house. We enjoyed our stay, and found that it was perfect for what we needed - a place to stay within a convenient distance from the centre of London, with a less than 5 minute walk from Sydenham Hill Station. We were surprised to learn that our host was living at the house as it is not clearly indicated on the listing, however as we were out most of the day it was not a problem and it didn’t impact our stay in the mornings and nights. The place is well decorated and cosy, with candles in the bathroom and corridor, though there was still an odd smell in the entryway. We felt welcomed when we arrived, and Dominique was always available to contact if we had questions. The kitchen and bathroom were practical and clean, equipped with everything we needed, however during the time of our stay the shower didn’t have great temperature control meaning very hot showers. Unfortunately there was construction around the appartement during our stay, though Dominique told us this in advance and gave us 20% off our stay as compensation, which was very generous but a shame that the small group of shops downstairs were all closed due to this.
As we were out most of the time, it was a great place in a convient location, perfect for a holiday in London.
