Isabel was on holiday, so our contact was her roommate Amira. They were kind enough to allow us to check in very early (8:30am).
The good: the room has a queen-sized bed and a table for meals. If you open the curtains, the space is well-lit. It is a ~10 minute walk to Brixton station and bus 159 (?) runs 24/7. The shower is hot and powerful.
The not-so-great: the room was a bit more cluttered than we were used to from other hosts. Do note it is Isabel's personal room.
We were given two hand towels as our bath towels.
Amira left her dirty dishes in the sink for two days, even after we informed Isabel. We were unable to wash our dishes due to this, which is frustrating because one of the house rules is to wash up after oneself. We had planned on washing our laundry too, but Amira left her laundry in the machine all five days we stayed. (Disclosure: we did not feel comfortable mentioning this to her after the dishes incident).
We would recommend this place to someone who doesn't plan on using the amenities.
PS If you're in Brixton, there's a great vegan cupcake shop near the tube!
