Ash's flat is the perfect 'home away from home' if you are traveling to London. The location is excellent. It is just a short walk to both a tube and train station but there are also several great restaurants and shops right in Balham if you feel like staying close to 'home'. The flat is bright, clean and spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. It was definitely a plus having both a washer and a dryer! An added bonus if you book with Ash is that if you have to contact him you will not be waiting around for him to answer. We really appreciated how quickly he responded to any questions that arose and we knew that had any problems occurred - none did - they would be handled promptly. That peace of mind is priceless when you are on vacation.
