Convenient, spacious and peaceful

Chapel Loft is very good value! Lots of space, 2 x queen beds, comfortable and so quiet! It’s a very short walk to the Waterloo metro station, which gets you into the city in minutes. I could happily settle in here for weeks. One possible practical addition could be a small hanging rack near the downstairs bed. Overall, a great place for a city stay.

Funky apartment

Tia’s apartment was a pleasure to stay in. It was as described and very clean with a very funky feel to it. Close to everything including two train stations. I’ll definitely be staying there again.
