The Brixton area is a great spot if you wish to get a local experience in London. The Whitehorse nearby Laura's place was a great spot for a drink, game of pool and a bit of food.

Laura's street is very quiet and still a short distance walk to the entire Brixton area which was loaded with shops and amenities.

Laura herself was very welcoming. She provided a lot of knowledge and had many guide books for us to look through. I highly recommend Laura's room if you want to have a local visit to London, while still being very accessible to the rest of the city.
