Bon lloc però no el recomenaria durant els mesos de calor.
Pros:

La ubicació es bona, i és ampli.

Cons:

No tenia aire acondicionat i feia moltíssima calor. Hem anat al mes de juny i en plena onada de calor però després hem tingut algun dia a 20 graus i l’apartament s’escalfava moltíssim amb el sol quan picava a les finestres.

Pros:

Apartment was in a good location and very clean! Appreciated the tea and filter coffee. Reception staff were very friendly and accommodating.

Cons:

The apartment was very very warm, but it was at the end of a heatwave on the evening we stayed. Two fans were provided which helped! Underfloor heating was on in the bathroom, if there is a way this can be switched off at high temperatures I would recommend.

A comfortable stay in a clean aparentment.
Pros:

The property was close to London Bridge Station and has a Tesco Express next door which was handy.
The apartment was spacious and had good amenities.

Cons:

When we stayed it was exceptionally hot. Unfortunately there was no air conditioning although fans were provided.
There was no toilets or coffee making facilities available in the reception area, which I would have expected given the price of the stay.

Comfortable efficient stay
Pros:

Location is fantastic. The check in and out is easy. Apartment reasonably comfortable.

Cons:

Bed and bedroom size is really small for 2 adults. While there is adequate lounging space it's mostly the bedroom that is used. Which should be bigger and more comfortable.
