This was our first time using airbnb and we had a great start, we had a wonderful time staying in Sharon and Richard's flat in SE16 for eight nights. Communication with Sharon prior to arrival was great and she and Richard were waiting for us upon our arrival, they explained what we needed to know and then left us to our own devices, having ensured that the fridge contained some basics and fresh flowers were on display in the living area (nice touch!). The accommodation was exactly as described in the property description and was spotlessly clean. We really liked the balcony (we enjoyed watching the local squirrels and a fox...) and the fact that there were books, music and DVDs available, I enjoyed the two books I managed to get through :-) The building was very quiet - we sometimes wondered if we were there on our own - and parking was also an absolute delight - we didn't use our car much but when we did, there was an abundance of parking available on-street when we returned: this was a real plus for us and would persuade us to go back in a flash if traveling to London again by car. There is a bus stop three minutes away from the flat, it connects to the Jubilee Line very efficiently at Canada Water. There is a great Tesco Extra supermarket close-by as well as some smaller options locally and near Canada Water tube station. We used public transport three days we were in London but four days we actually walked into the center of London along the Jubilee Walk and what great views we had along the way. It took us 90 minutes to the Tate and to the Imperial War Museum, two hours to the Houses of Parliament - it sounds like a lot but time flew as there are so many things to see along the way. We had a wonderful time in London and are greatly looking forward to returning sometime (hopefully soon)!
