When we compare with all of our previous Airbnb experiences this is the first one we wouldn’t recommend to friends and family without making a few remarks first:
The room
Please keep in mind it is a very basic room with a low ceiling (2m10). Matrass is directly on the ground, no real bed. No chair, nothing to put your luggage on, no waste bin, …
But bed and linen was very clean.
The bathroom & kitchen
It is a shared bathroom, also used by the other guests and Olivia. Bathroom was not so clean and a bit messy (dirty washcloth and empty soap bottles in the shower). Same for the kitchen.
Location
It takes a 10 to 15 min walk from Brixton underground to Olivia’s house. We didn’t mind at all but you need to be aware of the distance.
Communication
Communication with Olivia went really smoothly. She responds quickly and correct. It all felt a bit impersonal however. We didn’t meet Olivia although she lives in the same house. Entrance to the house was via a key box with a code. We saw other guests going in and out but it did not feel like a real and warm home.
