House with private roof terrace a few mins walk from Tate Modern and River

LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION! Our bright, quirky, spacious two bedroom flat with roof terrace is in an amazing location with many major London sites (Tate Modern, Southbank, Borough Market, London Eye, St Paul's) within a short walk. For those who want to be in the middle of everything with easy access to the airports. Two bedrooms with a comfy corner sofa bed in the living room (**warning: our living room has a large atrium in ceiling so prepare to wake with the sun!). V. suitable for families. Our home is an awesome, spacious, airy, bright friendly London flat, with private roof terrace, WIFI, TV (Netflix and 100s of channels), dishwasher, washer, dryer and amenities. This is a perfect home-from-home. As you can see from the pictures, it's a large, beautiful 2-bedroom apartment very close to the Tate Modern. In the midst of all the arts and culture of the Southbank. You will not find anywhere closer to the middle of the Culture Mile than this flat! 2 Double beds, plus 1 corner sofa bed, Bath, shower, washing machine, tumble dryer, oven, hobs, dishwasher, microwave, fridge, freezer. Secure entry. Fitted Wardrobe in bedroom. Set over three floors. Maximum of six persons. Our home is for those who like being in the middle of things - this isn't a quiet country lane, this is the centre of London with people, culture, excitement, noises, and bright lights. It can be busy outside but the windows are sound insulated and most guests are surprised by how quiet the apartment is. If you're not used to living in a city centre you may want ear plugs. There are many hotels nearby, so there's plenty of footfall. At the weekends there is live jazz in the bar a few doors down. On a summer night you can dine on the private roof terrace and enjoy the jazz and the sounds of London - especially good if you have kids asleep downstairs and can't stay out late!

Wonderful stay!
Host was extremely helpful and communicative! We loved the flat and would definitely come back. It has everything we needed and tiny convenience store around the corner as well as restaurants nearby. There was plenty of room for our whole family and great location.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
1) There was a great deal of cracked and flaking paint present that cast an air of dinginess upon entering the property which never let up. 2) The towels were of very poor quality and the shower offered insufficient water delivery. 3) The overall level of value was lacking. For measurably less money my friend and I could have each booked a room at the hotel around the corner and we each could have had a better room and better shower. (We stayed there a total of six nights prior to our stay here.) 4) Except for the excellent and desirable location, it would be difficult to recommend these accommodations to anyone I know traveling to London.

Perfect for a family of four
The flat was perfect for our family of four. It was centrally located and close to the tube. My youngest enjoyed the toys and games. We made good use of the washer and dryer and the rooftop access. And the WiFi was fast and easy to access. One small thing to note is that you can hear the tube go by but we used a sound machine at night and it didn’t bother us.

excellent for 6 and london exploring!
Close to several tube stations, taxis are abundant, and walking to Borough market, local groceries, and other local spots is reasonable. Standard walk up to first floor beds and second floor kitchen. fantastic value for money. Immediately responsive to how to get in, even when i already had instructions, washer and dryer were very helpful. overall a recommended location, especially for the price. pub next door, and restaurants all around. Even a few kids toys to keep younger ones busy for a few minutes. You'd have to be pretty particular to find flaws with this inexpensive accessible location.

Inner City Fun
This flat is in a vibrant location with great proximity to everything you could want for a stay in London, whether walking or using the tube/trains. You do need to be a little careful of the sets of stairs...steep.

The perfect rental for our family
We (family of 4, 2 children 6 and 8) stayed here for 6 nights. We were 5 minutes from the Southwark tube station, and a 20 minute walk to the London Eye/Big Ben. There were several convenience stores in the area for items to keep in the rental. There were also various pubs and restaurants within a 3 minute walk and directly across the street as well. The games and living room available here made an incredible difference over other rentals and hotels. Our kids went straight to the puzzles and it was the perfect place for down time in between stops around the city.

Unexceptable
The owner told us there would be parking across the street from the vrbo. The closest parking is 15 minutes away. The unit was not cleaned before our stay so there were used towels, sheets and dishes to wash before we could use them and there was garbage everywhere. Even if it had been cleaned the unit is fithy. Stains on the walls, carpeting and couch. Then while we were packing to leave the cleaner barged in an hour early and made herself a coffee, cigarette in hand and insisted on starting to clean. WE WEREN'T EVEN OUT THE DOOR YET, WE PAID FOR THAT TIME!

In poor condition and not worth the money
With apologies to Ruth, this place is kind of a dump. There are two large holes in the wall in the entryway. The walls are scuffed up. The carpet is dirty. The dresser in one of the bedrooms was missing the front of the drawer, which was stacked in the corner of the room (along with some rolled up rugs), while the fan in the other bedroom was missing the front grill. The grout has fallen out of much of the bathroom tiles bathroom tiles and there’s lime buildup around the kitchen sink in the shower plumbing. The sofa had black cat hair on it and one of the bedrooms smells like an animal has been living in it. My daughter is allergic to cats and had a serious reaction the first night so she had to take antihistamines for the rest of our stay. Some if the dishes were dirty. There were also no instructions at all, including how to light the burners on the stove since the igniter doesn’t work (we finally found some matches in a cabinet). Overall, the place is poorly maintained, smells like an animal lived there, and needs to be fixed up and cleaned well. Very disappointing.
