This location is great. It the mix. There are great local shops/eateries near by as well a good bit of public transport. Take the Bakerloo line of possible, as it is the lesser crowded of the two lines.If you don't mind walking you are very close to The London Bridge. At night the lights of the city was spectacular to see. The washer doesn't dry, but they do provide a nice drying rack. There are no curtains for the western facing for the very large windows, so later in the day it becomes quite hot, great for drying clothes, not so much for watching television. There is a guide book on the table. It could have information about the washer's symbols (us ignorant Americans from the country might not know what they represent). The book was great as my next place didn't have any thing. This place had no baking sheets, so bought some. Apparently this a rare thing. The place had a good size fridge with freezer. The place came stocked with toilet paper and a roll of paper towels, which my next place did not. They have two locking electric gates that you can let people through remotely with the wall phone, super convenient. Also this plus all the locks on the door make you feel super secure, which helps me get into a deep sleep at night. At night the city has a lot of energy (thus noise), so if you are not/cannot get used to that, this place might not ne ideal. In the cold, the portable heaters are VERY good and VERY quiet. I have more to say, but I have maxed out my character #
