Jenny (lady in Flat 2) was lovely, very accommodating about letting us leave our bags earlier than check in and later than check out. Good communication from the host too prior to arrival via email/text. Beds were comfortable and location was excellent.

The location is fantastic, within walking distance of the Victoria and Northern Lines. We walked easily to Westminster along the river. A decent supermarket a few hundred metres away. Hugh was easy to communicate with. Jenny downstairs is wonderful and very kind to our children.

We had a key code to get into the garden and main door but a lovely lady at the ground floor flat was there to greet us and give us the keys to flat. Its good to have someone there with local knowledge. The flat is in a old church building. We were so glad as having windows open and thick stone walls made it cool in the heatwave. Also had good glazing so if the windows were shut there was no road noise, not much with them open. Local shop just on the road, Tesco a few minutes walk away as is the Oval and Vauxhall pleasure gardens and tube.
