Pros:

Empezando la zona muy segura, al frente pasaba el autobús así que fue un plus, aunque en metro está brixton, nosotros preferimos autobús y fue un puntazo. Elegimos la habitación con baño y la verdad muy amplia, nos encantó que tuviese nevera, microondas y una mesa con platos y vasos, eso fue de gran ayuda. La habitación siempre estaba a temperatura adecuada así que no pasamos frío ni calor. El baño amplio y con agua caliente sin problema. Tenía un pequeño armario donde había un nórdico por si pasábamos frío. Tenía plancha y secador, adicional dos adaptadores de corriente por si no llevas que es de gran ayuda, nosotros llevábamos el nuestro pero es un plus que piensen en eso y los puedan prestar. En general todo muy bien. Si vuelvo a Londres de seguro que quedó nuevamente aquí. Muchas gracias por todo

Pros:

Chambre trés mignonne a proximité du bus. Chambre suffisante sachant que nous avons juste dormi.
La literie était trés bien nous avons bien dormi.
La salle de bain était trés bien aussi.
Hôte trés réactif suite à un probléme de clef.
Un frigo, micro-onde ainsi que du café est à disposition belle attention.

Cons:

Insonorisation n’est vraiment pas top.
Manque de respect des autres personnes.
Le chauffage de salle de bain était allumé et impossible de l’éteindre il faisait assez chaud dans la chambre..
Le nettoyage aurait été mieux un peu plus approfondie.

Pros:

Cosy room in a quiet location with good connection to the centre. Clean and comfortable, everything we needed for our stay in London.

Cons:

Getting into the room was a challenge. On the first day we spent 20 minutes trying to unlock the door (room "Penelope"). The key was hard to turn. We reported the issue but there was no answer. Please please fix the lock, it was very unpleasant to struggle every time we wanted to enter the room.

Pros:

We had everything we needed, the room was small but nice and we were only there to sleep anyway. It was useful that we had a fridge, some cutlery and didn't need to bring towels. All important information was communicated and everything worked without issues with the lockbox. All in all, I would recommend it

consiglio se non si cerca la comodità totale di un hotel
Pros:

ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo, stanza molto pulita e moderna, bagno in camera pulito e con tutti i servizi necessari, phon disponibile e letto comodo. Situata in una zona tranquilla con fermate del bus subito di fronte e ben collegata al centro, istruzioni per il check in chiare e facili da seguire

Cons:

isolata da qualsiasi negozio, market o altro, non è presente nessuno fisicamente nella struttura in caso di bisogno, uno dei depositi delle chiavi era rotto e quindi sempre aperto, era quello della porta che dava accesso al corridoio con le varie stanze, inoltre le serrature di tutte le stanze (sono certo anche delle altre a causa dei rumori ogni sera) sono difettose e richiedono tempo e fatica per essere aperte e generano molto rumore e fastidio. Difettata era anche la chiusura della finestra che non permetteva di bloccare la chiusura. Inoltre la distanza dal centro o da altri punti di interesse è di 40/60 minuti. Nonostante tutto sono difetti passabili in quanto il rapporto qualità prezzo resta ottimo e se non ci si aspetta il lusso di un hotel va benissimo.

Clean, thoughtful but hard to sleep and have peace
Pros:

There was everything that u need for a stay- shampoo, conditioner, soap, towels, tea, coffee, hair dryer, iron, microwave, wifi. The apartment was clean and there was a big tv with wifi so you could watch netflix or youtube. It’s a good value of money, it’s not too far from center- 30 min by bike or 45 min by bus.

Cons:

The place is an apartment divided into separate rooms in the hallway, each with a loud lock and key box. The walls are thin, so you can hear a lot from the neighboring rooms. Guests arrive in the night, making big noise and struggling with the locks. Also other rooms in the hallway probably don’t have bathrooms and keep making big noise in the night slamming these doors.

You have to be ready, because some guests have problem with identifying which room they booked (it’s marked as name not a number)-one night, someone confused our room and tried to open our key box. After failing, they kept pulling on our door handle several times trying to get in.

In the checking out morning, before 11am, probably the cleaner was also pulling on our handle to get in without knocking first, which was really uncomfortable.

Not the best place to get a good nights sleep.
Pros:

It was clean and the host were helpful with allowing me to leave my bag there before checkin.

Cons:

No chance of a decent nights sleep. This is an apartment that's been broken up into separate rooms and each room has a lock box for the key and each door has a really loud and difficult to manipulate lock. The walls are paper thin so you hear people talking through the walls and even though they advertise quite hours from 10pm onwards, they still have guests checking in a 1-2 am fumbling around with lock boxes and locks and talking and turning lights on. It's more inline with a hostel experience in terms of comfort, definitely not a hotel or apartment standards. The nearest shops are a bus ride away , or a long walk. It's not very handy for getting around. Then after an average/terrible nights sleep the cleaners/hosts will be there in the morning, headphones in whilst chatting to their friends and I even heard some words I don't think I needed to hear. Pretty sure a lot of the reviews on this property have been written by friends as they certainly do not align with the reality of the experience.

Cons:

Per entrare nella stanza è complicatissimo, codici, chiavi nascoste, basterebbe una chiave normale una tessera e che per non fare il check-in le inventano tutte! Non è così che funziona

Pros:

Pěkné, čisté ubytování v blízkosti autobusu do centra.

Cons:

Pokoj je ve sdíleném ubytování. Jednu noc jsme měli trochu hlučnější sousedy, jinak vše super.
