Attended the property and didn’t feel safe. Tried calling the numbers provided and had no answer. Didn’t receive a call back until 8pm, 5hrs since calling. Had to find other accommodation. The staff didn’t want to know about the situation and refused refund.

Cannot comment on staff as I didn't see anyone during my two night stay. In my room two light bulbs needed replacing, as did the light outside the bedroom door. The shower was very slow to drain and needs sorting. Minor points which I would have mentioned to a receptionist if there had been one. Otherwise all was fine - clean, comfortable and secure. Entry instructions very clear.

Very nice location near Clapham Common if you want to be more outside central London. Close to transit. The place was clean and easy to access. Only downside is it is on a main street with very loud vehicles driving by during all hours of the night.

I’m giving this property a 4 out of 5. Check in was staffless, I had to collect my key card from a lock box on-site. No problem with this. Room was very clean and bed was comfortable. I think the property needs to invest in air conditioning for the rooms because I happened to be staying there on the hottest day of the year but it was miserably hot.
