Overall, it is a great place to stay (for short or long stay) near London, closed to railway station, about 8-10mins walk from the apartment (East Croydon railway station) which is 2 stations away south to Victoria station near Buckingham palace (about 15mins ride). There are plenty of restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Communication with the host is super throughout the stay. Apartment has all amenities (utensils, kitchens, microwaves, refrigerator, washer, dryer, etc). During our 8 nights stay, we did not use the apartment facilities (i.e. gym) so we could not comment on that. There is no TV though (maybe we could not find it) but we usually come back to the apartment late at night around 2200hrs ish anyway so we are not really affected by it. Wifi is strong so we use our phones to watch Netflix instead. Overall, we would definetely come back again.
