My son and I enjoyed our stay here! It was a nice, quiet place with a little park and a full fledged tank at the end of the road (look up the Stompie Garden). This couldn't have been more perfect!
There are several grocery stores within walking distance. Tower Bridge is walkable but we usually took a bus. Most mornings, a black and white cat would greet us, I hope you meet this cat too!
Taking the 188 bus worked well for us. We would ride to Waterloo Station and be able to get anywhere in about a half hour or less. Taking the 188 in the opposite direction got us to the Tower and the river walk area.
If you're unfamiliar with the area, know that there are several different Bricklayer's Arms stops, make sure you're getting off the bus at the right one.
Overall, a quiet and cozy place to stay!
