I stayed for 5 nights at Cheryl's place while visiting London by myself (I'm a single woman in my early 40s). I have nothing but great things to say about Cheryl and her place. She was a delightful host throughout my stay and we had a lot in common, so I enjoyed chatting with her in the evenings! The apartment is located on a main bus line and about 10 minutes away from the tube station. There is great nearby food options (check out The Watchtower and The Grange) as well as several neighborhood markets. Cheryl has a decent supply of travel books to peruse. Overall, I highly recommend this delightful spacious private room in Bermondsey!
