Ako bude prilike, ponovo cu doci u ovaj smjestaj.
Pros:

Izvrsna lokacija, mirna ulica, a pored Sharda, The Borough Marketa i London Bridge.
Busna stanica ispred zgrade kao i Tesco. Mnostvo ducana, restorana i sadrzaja u okolici, tube station, northern line vrlo vrlo blizu. Tko voli City, odmah preko mosta….
Osoblje vrlo susretljivo, simpaticno i na usluzi oko smjestaja i ostalih bitnih stvari za goste.
Sve informacije su transparentne i znate sto mozete ocekivati. Vrlo ljubazni!!!
Apartman/stan jako uredan i imate sve sto Vam treba za ugodan boravak.

Fab apartment near Borough and London Bridge
Pros:

Fab location for Borough Market and London Bridge. Huge apartment, perfect for up to 8 people. Tea and coffee were provided and lovely toiletries left in the bathrooms.

Cons:

Really poor communication with the apartment owners through Booking.com. Never received a response via email and phone number didn't work. If you need to contact them, just go through a direct phone number on the Internet, reception were very helpful after that.
Sofa beds were not the most comfortable.
