Great area to explore London for a few days! Owner was so helpful providing step by step directions to get there from the airport. These were a life saver! She was very responsive and the property was clean and had everything we needed. Would recommend and use again! Great experience :)
This was our second time in London and this time we were traveling with our niece and wanted more space than a hotel could offer. Jennifer’s place worked well for us. The livingroom couch is now L-shaped which had plenty of room for all of us. We used the washing machine and hung laundry both on the balcony and the supplied drying rack.
You can walk to Westminster underground in about 15 minutes along the River or take one of many buses around the corner. We had a bit of a learning curve with the buses but they really do work well and can get you just about anywhere.
We were thrilled to find something in London that fit our budget and not have to stay 30 to 40 minutes away. It was convenient to bus lines, quiet, and within minutes of wonderful views.
Communication was great and a lot of information provided about area. Really liked the coded lock box so keys could be left and no worries of losing them while exploring.
Thanks for making our trip possible!
This apartment checked a lot of important boxes for us:
Soundproof windows
Comfortable beds
Reasonably-equipped kitchen (with some serious omissions)
Excellent bathroom and WC space.
Good access to a bus stop
Decent local businesses
Responsive manager
Overall, it was good value for money, being so close to central London.
While a few upgrades would make the place fabulous, the main weakness is that the tube is a 15-minute walk. If you can live with that, “Chez Guinevere” would be a fine choice for a stay in London.
Jennifer was a great host, the information supplied was amazing, from directions for public transport to restaurant recommendations. The flat is in a fantastic location, within walking distance to many iconic London landmarks. The flat is quite spacious and has small balcony to enjoy a wine or two. Highly recommend Jennifer's flat.
Nice little flat for our family of four (2 adults and 2 older kids). The location is really good, right across the river from Parliament and Westminster Abbey. Great information provided from the owner on groceries, restaurants, public transportation, and things to see. Overall a great trip.
Great cozy apartment to stay and experience London. Outside the main hustle and bustle of main London but still easy to get to the main city. Guides were available and very helpful for anything you needed. Place was clean and we had no issues. Lift available for a large amount of luggage
Jennifer was excellent as a host. The information provided was above and beyond expectations and covered every aspect of our stay. Including everything in the unit as well as closest shops restaurants and attractions. The Big Bus stop was literally 200 metres from the front door and if you are athletic you could easily walk to most attractions. The unit was large compared to most in London. Comfortable beds and good sized loungeroom. The toilet and bathroom were small and adequate. The unit overlooks a lovely park. Highly recommend.
Tout est conforme à l'annonce, même mieux!
L'appartement est très bien, proche du centre (10 minutes à pied de Big Ben... en marchant tranquillement).
Pour le reste, tous les bus et métros sont à moins de 10 minutes. Des épiceries sont proches également. La propriétaire est très disponible et très agréable. Nous avons passé un super séjour!
This flat was great for me and my friend as we spent a few days in London. Jennifer was wonderful about giving information about the flat, public transportation, and communicating about check in. Bedrooms were comfortable, the neighborhood was quiet even with trains going by frequently. I got a little turned around finding a couple of the nearby tube stations but soon settled in to the neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again. My favorite part was the short walk to Lambeth Bridge for some beautiful views of the Parliament buildings!
This unit is quite basic, but you have the luxury of a two bedroom flat in a prime location at a good price. Major sites are walkable or a bus/tube ride away. City Mapper App is very useful here.
The host had excellent communication and is consistent in making upgrades to this property. She recently had it sound proofed and it will be repainted soon.
We loved having this oasis where we could come rest midday and enjoyed looking out on the Old Paradise Gardens and even met a fox there one evening .
We were here in early May and noticed that the flat did warm up a bit during the day. opening the windows took care of this. I did see fans have been provided if needed, but if visiting in the height of summer, be aware there is not air conditioning.
I would gladly come stay in this property again and recommend it to my friends.
Once again, an enjoyable stay at Jennifer’s apartment. We enjoy the location, convenience of public transport and view over the park behind. Thank you again Jennifer.
Die Informationen zur Anreise waren sehr hilfreich. Die Wohnung hat uns gut gefallen. Wir haben die zentrale Lage genossen und konnten viele Highlights gut zu Fuß erreichen. Auch der Bus hielt fast direkt vor der Tür.
We were 4 adults with a full schedule of sight-seeing and plays. The flat was comfy, including beds, & we made good use of the kitchen and clothes washer. The location was quiet. A bus stop was a 3-minute walk away, and 2 tube stations were about a 12-min. walk, so getting around with an Oyster card and the citymapper app was easy. We would gladly book this apartment again.
A very centrally located flat with easy transportation close by. All the amenities needed in a safe neighborhood.
Jennifer was very helpful and patient with any concerns I had. I would definitely recommend.
Perfect location, walking distance to Westminster, London Eye, Buckingham Palace... the apartment is good for 4 persons with everything you need to cook and relax. Jennifer was very responsive and nice. Thank you !

Der var alt hvad man kunne ønske sig. Alle nødvendige faciliteter i lejligheden og tæt på hele London. Gode busforbindelser. Vil helt sikkert søge på denne lejlighed næste gang, jeg skal til London i en uge!
Just spent 4 days at Jennifer's place in Lambeth. Jennifer was very responsive during the booking process and afterwards. The apartment was well equipped and the perfect size for me and my two daughters. It was very quiet and nice to be able to look out on a park. The apartment was well located. It was only about a 10 min walk to Westminster Abby and the London Eye. We were able to access all tourist destinations easily by walking or or taking the subway.
