City Space Borough

The location is excellent, right beside the metro entrance, and Borough Market is an easy walk away. The room was roomier than I expected for the price, and the shared bathrooms were clean and spacious. For London, it’s decent value. There are three floors and no elevator, as clearly stated, but the stairs are so narrow that I wouldn’t suggest bringing big suitcases. The walls are thin too, so you may hear your neighbours’ activities without meaning to. If you’re travelling light and want a budget-friendly place in this area, it’s not a bad option.

The host, room, and location were all five-star for me. I had a great few nights here and will definitely be back.

We enjoyed our stay and would come back. I loved the heated bathroom mirror, though the carpet could use a clean. Getting checked in was tricky for us in our seventies since we’re not very confident with the internet. A lovely man whose name I didn’t catch helped us with the codes. The bedroom door keypad was tiny for people with poor eyesight, but we managed.

The price is pretty good, and the place is close to the tube in a quite nice area. The shared bathrooms were clean, and I never had to wait. Street noise was pretty bad, though, even with earplugs.
