Great bedrooms, owner, price
I should begin by saying our family enjoyed our 10 night stay and felt we received good service and value for our money.Accuracy of description: The biggest positive for our family of 5 were bed sizes and number of bedrooms. Absolute positive and hard to find. The price for this value was also excellent for being reasonably close to central London. Check in process: straightforward, didn’t have to set up an in-person meeting with anyone.Communication with property manager: receives highest marks. Both before and during stay we had multiple exchanges; owner always responded quickly to questions or issues that arose. 5 stars!Cleanliness of property: inside was cleaned well; outside suffers just a bit from debris and the neighborhood (right across from the stadium). The upstairs shower is fine but is challenging to keep the floor dry when the shower is running. There may be a bit of water or moisture seepage into the flooring next to the kitchen sink area as well.Location and neighborhood: neutral, depends on what you want. Positive side: city transit to central London 45-60 minutes on average, grocery and stadium across the street, reasonable eating options in neighborhood. Less positive: street is quite noisy; walking with kids from train station at night is ok from Norwood junction, a little uncomfortable from Thornton Heath. The house itself feels safe however. Might not be ideal if all your kids are under 10. Perfect if you’re a group of young adults.
