It was in a perfect location. 2 minute walk to the tube, couple minutes walk to Tate Modern, Millennium Bridge, St Pauls, etc. Had a great time.

We (family of 4, 2 children 6 and 8) stayed here for 6 nights. We were 5 minutes from the Southwark tube station, and a 20 minute walk to the London Eye/Big Ben. There were several convenience stores in the area for items to keep in the rental. There were also various pubs and restaurants within a 3 minute walk and directly across the street as well. The games and living room available here made an incredible difference over other rentals and hotels. Our kids went straight to the puzzles and it was the perfect place for down time in between stops around the city.

Ruth was great to engage with, very helpful. Apartment very well located near shops and pubs, close to a tube station which made the trip really easy to enjoy.

The owner told us there would be parking across the street from the vrbo. The closest parking is 15 minutes away. The unit was not cleaned before our stay so there were used towels, sheets and dishes to wash before we could use them and there was garbage everywhere. Even if it had been cleaned the unit is fithy. Stains on the walls, carpeting and couch. Then while we were packing to leave the cleaner barged in an hour early and made herself a coffee, cigarette in hand and insisted on starting to clean. WE WEREN'T EVEN OUT THE DOOR YET, WE PAID FOR THAT TIME!

With apologies to Ruth, this place is kind of a dump. There are two large holes in the wall in the entryway. The walls are scuffed up. The carpet is dirty. The dresser in one of the bedrooms was missing the front of the drawer, which was stacked in the corner of the room (along with some rolled up rugs), while the fan in the other bedroom was missing the front grill. The grout has fallen out of much of the bathroom tiles bathroom tiles and there’s lime buildup around the kitchen sink in the shower plumbing. The sofa had black cat hair on it and one of the bedrooms smells like an animal has been living in it. My daughter is allergic to cats and had a serious reaction the first night so she had to take antihistamines for the rest of our stay. Some if the dishes were dirty. There were also no instructions at all, including how to light the burners on the stove since the igniter doesn’t work (we finally found some matches in a cabinet). Overall, the place is poorly maintained, smells like an animal lived there, and needs to be fixed up and cleaned well. Very disappointing.

Great location! Very cute place.

We had the best stay at this apartment in the Southwark area of London. It was not only a great space that allowed for our small family to spread out, but it also had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We also totally fell in love with the area. There were lots of great restaurants, pubs, and cafes all within walking distance. It was in an area where you could get away from the touristy sites, yet they were all just a super easy walk or tube ride away. We enjoyed our stay so much that we had hoped this apartment was available when we came back through London on our travels. Ruth was prompt and kind and wonderful to talk to and made the whole process super easy. We will definitely look forward to staying here again!

We loved staying here. It was very cozy for my kiddos. Loved the grocery store which was a 3 min walk. We walked almost everywhere. Would stay here again!

We have just returned from a long weekend staying in this super little house right in the middle of London. Although the decor is a tad tired and would benefit from a refresh the position of the accommodation is perfect for anyone wishing to walk to a whole host of attractions in the centre of the city. Waterloo station is a few minutes walk, as is the Imperial War Museum and Tate Modern. London Bridge, Tower Bridge, the Tower of London, Trafalgar Square, Whitehall, Westminster, The London Eye, The Mall, The Strand, The national Gallery, etc, etc; they are all well within walking distance. The house is right in the heart of Southwark, with its busy street life. The atmosphere is excellent and, to cap it all, there is a superb cafe around the back called "Over the Road" that does a brilliant breakfast! The accommodation is great, providing comfortable sleeping for 6, a well equipped kitchen, with microwave, conventional oven, kettle, dishwasher and washing machine, cutlery and crockery etc and there are plenty of books and board games if that's your bag, not to mention a large TV. Wifi is fast and the bathroom comes well equipped. Access to the building was very easy and communications with the owner were prompt and clear. The heating for both the accommodation and water was easy to control and the house was very cosy and comfortable at night time. Due to the time of year (December) we didn't make use of the roof terrace except to have a quick look but what an excellent place to enjoy a G&T on a warm evening; far removed from the hustle and bustle of the streets below. We had a great time and will most definitely stay there again if it's available the next time we are staying in London for a few days. I recommend it most highly.

Excellent place to stay and awesome communication from the host. Will stay there again if the opportunity presents itself.

Great location. Fabulous amenities (washer & dryer!). Ruth was so easy to contact. Quiet, restful sleep.

We thought the property met expectations, it does need a refresh at some point, the washer was not operating which was an economic inconvenience as we had to take our laundry to have it done.

Easy to connect with Ruth to feel confident in booking. Would recommend stay. Stairs are required so be aware if there are any concerns.

Right in the heart of a thriving area, this flat is perfect for the sightseeing tourist who doesn’t mind the bustle, noise and smells of the city. I don’t, and we enjoyed our stay. The main living area is open plan and gets lots of light. The lower bathroom has a musty smell which is typical of windowless spaces, and could do with some minor maintenance. We had a lot of trouble trying to turn off the bath tap, which we were forced to leave slightly ‘on’ after trying everything we could. Again, this is a minor quibble in an otherwise good experience, but hopefully will be taken care of by the host. I wouldn’t describe it as luxurious, but if convenience, location and value for money are your primary goals, this flat is perfect.

Appartement très agréable avec terrasse sur le toit idéale pour apéro. Un petit bémol avec odeurs des hottes de cuisine des restaurants situés dessous.

Great property. Wish we had spent more nights here. Good to come back from a day of sightseeing & be happy to eat in. Thanks Ruth for accommodating us with early drop of luggage.

We really loved e this apartment for our trip to London. Perfect for a family of five. The location is outstanding, two blocks from the nearest underground station. We felt very comfortable and overall enjoyed it very much. Would recommend it to anybody and would definitely stay there again. The Property owner is extremely quick to answer any last minute questions that you might have. Everything went very smooth Lee.

We were in London for 3 days in early July. This property worked well for me, my husband and our 18 year old daughter. It's only 1 block from the Southwark underground station which is on the Jubilee line. Two stops and you're at Westminster Abbey. A short walk and your at Tower Bridge. The property was beautiful and bright - big windows and skylight. We sat on the rooftop deck and enjoyed a couple of beers every night after doing the 'tourist' thing. Great restaurants nearby. The property is near a train but i have to say that - in the bedrooms at least - it did not bother us at all. I'd stay here again on my next trip.

Great flat close to many London attractions. Terrace on roof was great. Would stay there again.

We loved this stay. The location is great for using public transportation or walking to different places! Ruth is very kind and easy to work with. The area is vibrant and fun, which can get a little noisy at night but nothing too bad.

Loved this two-storey walk-up with 2 bedrooms and bath on 1st floor, well-equipped kitchen and living-room on 2nd floor, and steep steps up to rooftop patio. A great place for families with young children who will love the selection of toys and books. Couch needs a cleaning and lacks a duvet. Otherwise, a lovely place to relax while still enjoying bustling London right outside your windows. The nearby train is a nice touch but doesn't affect your sleep. Bathroom was modern and kitchen had a washer and dryer, as well as fridge and stove - a great plus if you need to do a load of laundry while cooking dinner. Two sets of house keys were also a nice touch. The shops in the lively courtyard at the back all shut down at 10pm, allowing little ones to sleep soundly. I would definitely stay here again!

(-) live Rat, dirty carpets in bedroom, smells foul in staircase when you walk into the apartment, dimly lit bathroom. (+) ample space in bedrooms and kithcen/living room; location near to southwark tube station; washer/dryer for laundry;

Superbe maison de ville très bien située. Toute commodité avec quelques restaurants autour. Très facile d'accès de Gatwick avec le Thameslink

Very well located ! Near from everything you need to see ! Very quiet place Thank you very much Ruth.

Good location, nice place, perfect for the weekend

It was perfect for what we wanted central to all activities clean and easy to find Thank you would definitely stay there again
