I really enjoyed Clapham Guest House. It was quite minus the traffic outside. But, it was great at night. There is no Central A/C. But, I did not miss it because it was so cool with the wind factorvfrom the window. Phillip was wonderful at the front desk. The staff was available virtual via phone. It was safe and secure with keyless entry. Most accommodations in London do not have elevators. I had a short amount of stairs to go up. But it was spacious and quaint for a solo traveler who want to see all the attractions of London. The only thing is the front desk is a 8 to 10 min walk/8 blocks from Clapham Guest House. It is on the same street which is helpful. Easy to rebook another stay to do some more sightseeing. It is fairly close to alot of places for tourist. I will definitely come back and stay here again to see attractions that were not open to the public. Restaurants and stores all around the location that are open late.

Great location. The triple en-suite was spacious and nice. Across the street is a 24 hr Co-op to buy drinks and snacks. The bus stop into the city is in front of the guesthouse. So convenient! Clapham and Brixton are such a cute neighborhoods with many eateries and bars.

Had a three night stay recently in the guest house and it was better than I expected. After having read the review of the place I was a bit nervous. We arrived to the sister guest house a bit early as our flight was first thing but the staff were lovely and ensured us that the room was already ready which was great. The room itself was clean and just was we expected a bed, tv, wardrobe and toilet. The location of the guest house is a bit out of the way but the bus stop is right outside the door and train station about a 5 minute walk away so no hassle. My only complaint about the whole stay would be the fact that you could hear the guests above walking around through the night and talking which isn’t really anything that could be fixed but everything else was great. Would stay again.

The property is being renovated. When we first arrived it was utter shock as we had not been told that the property was being renovated, The workmen were very nice as they did not expect us. There was dust everywhere as we walked into the room.
