I can't say enough good things about Izzy's place in Brixton. First of all the place was bright and clean, tasteful and well-appointed. I don't always sleep well when I'm travelling but I managed to sleep late every morning because the bed was SO comfortable and the room was so quiet.
I was surprised how easy transportation was to and from Brixton. It may look a little out of the way on the map, but don't let that fool you. It is really very easy to get there and the tube station is a quick 5-7 minute walk from Izzy's place. There are lots of great restaurants and pubs nearby as well. Be sure to have a meal at Kricket - amazing!
But the hosts were the stars of my stay. Izzy went out of her way to make my visit special with lots of great advice about places to eat and things to do. She is a culinary wizard and invited me to join her and some friends who were over for dinner. It was such a fun evening and so kind of her to include me.
