April was a very friendly, informative and helpful host. She advised us on the local restaurants and provided us two keys to the property half way through our stay.

Brixton is a vibrant place. We really enjoyed staying in the area. Minutes away to the tube station, public transport is very convenient to the major icons of London. There are a variety of restaurants around the corner including but not limited to Thai, Mexican, Jamaican, Japanese, and Italian. There’s everything you need in close proximity to the apartments from supermarkets to clothing shops.

The studio apartment was cute and cosy. The bed was comfortable though the pillows were not. The kitchenette included pretty much everything needed except for a cooking knife and a chopping board. Fridge, stove and microwave worked well.

We had a leaky kitchen faucet/tap which gradually got worse. April promptly organised a plumber to fix it. The faucet was replaced and the problem was solved. One of the venetian blinds in the apartment, however, was faulty and this was not fixed. The toilet flush would occasionally get stuck until the button was pressed a few times to stop it from continually flushing. Under the bed was dusty and it looked like had not been cleaned for some time. We noticed this because we wanted to use the space under the bed as storage for our luggage.

The apartment we stayed in faced the street and could get a little noisy on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights. Unless you are a really light sleeper the bass from the night club next door should not keep you up.

Last but not least, if we could suggest having a vacuum cleaner available for guests who are staying for a longer than a week or an offer to have the room vacuumed. The carpet rug requires a non-slip rug pad to stop it from slipping.

All in all, we really enjoyed our stay, got attached to our studio apartment and wished we were staying for longer. We would recommend it to anyone wanting to stay in these apartments. You will not regret it. April, thank you again.
