My mother and I stayed here for 6 days. Mike, the property manager was there to greet us and went through everything and answered all of questions. The flat has a beautiful view of the marina and the apartment building itself is quiet. It is conveniently located across the street from a grocery store and there are many restaurants close by so if you want to cook or eat out it's great either way. We initially had a bit of trouble finding the bus stop and tube station but once we found it getting around was very easy. This being said, if you plan on traveling to Big Ben or the sites around that area, I highly recommend you take the Thames River Cruise. It will get you there much faster than the hop on hop off bus. The weather was cooler than we expected so having laundry in the flat was great since we had to wash the few warm clothes that we had. All in all it was a great stay and I would highly recommend this rental. Very comfortable.

Delightful in every way. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony overlooking the boats, with Tower Bridge in the distance. Great location, excellent amenities, welcoming host. The well equipped kitchen allowed us to cook several meals. I highly recommend!

We loved the apartment at the St. Catherine’s Docks! Could see part of the Tower Bridge from the balcony! Public transportation nearby, so easy to get anywhere in the city! Mike was so helpful and informative. Very comfortable apartment that perfectly suited our needs. Having a washer in the apt was a great help. Highly recommend!

I was on a mother daughter trip to London. The location of the flat is perfect. It was very peaceful and walking distance to so much. Mike was great, he helped us out so much. The size of the flat was fine for us. The size of the second bedroom is small but works. I should have been in better communication with Mike on a few things we needed while we stayed there. Hand soap(the stuff provided was thin), towels, and how to regulate the heat better. There was a smell coming from the washing machine closet, Mike is communicating this to the owner. Overall, the location couldn't be beat and the view from the balcony was lovely.

This apartment was *nearly perfect. It was perfectly located, clean, and well kept. Mike, the property manager, was great to work with. *Nearly: could use a clock in the common area; several lightbulbs were burnt out. Minor issues, easily fixed.

This was a great place and met our needs well. It was convenient to tube stations and food options. Area was quiet and felt safe. The flat is a little small, but my 18 year old son and I didn't feel cramped. We spent the majority of our time out exploring all of the wonders of London and just came back to crash.

Mike the property manager was incredibly helpful and responsive. Lovely location near Tower of London, grocery store right across the street, 10 minute walk to the Tower Hill Tube. The unit is perfect size for a couple or family with one child. Only minor drawbacks are the bed in the children's room is small, and no clothes dryer in the unit. Nonetheless we had a great time, location is fantastic and in a nice community.

Terrific VRBO booking in the center of London. 10 minutes from the tower of London and the nearest underground station in zone 1 - meaning you can get around the city for cheap at any time throughout the day. View over the docks is terrific with the spires of London bridge and the Spire in view. Across the street from plentiful food options and a supermarket (if you're burned out from eating out every day and want some fresh produce). The space is terrific with everything you could need. In house washer, boiler room for drying clothes, dishwasher, cutlery, and cooking utensils. Check in and out were a breeze. The host took the time to reach out to us personally to arrange for our arrival, and checked in multiple times to make sure everything was going well. Would highly recommend!
