Bermondsey has evolved from its industrial past into one of London’s most exciting urban villages. It’s known for its village-like atmosphere and creative energy, where converted warehouses sit alongside leafy parks, and stylish restaurants mix with traditional pubs. Locals greet each other by name at the bakery, and visitors quickly feel part of the neighbourhood's rhythm.
Begin your day on Bermondsey Street, the lively centre of the community. This charming road is lined with independent cafés, restaurants, galleries, and boutiques.

Summary: Bermondsey is a friendly diverse community. The rental property is a. fifteen minute walk from the closest tube station on the Jubilee line. It is an ideal location for visiting Tower Bridge or central London. The neighbourhood is very quiet. Security was good. There are three doors to be locked when leaving the property The rental unit is undergoing change. The drawers and cupboards contain a variety of personal effects and the kitchen was very cluttered. I spent an afternoon vacuuming and making space in the kitchen. That said I would gladly return. Jo explained the dos and donts of the property. She quickly returned our emails requesting information or assistance.

Summary: We had a lovely stay at Jo’s place and she made sure to welcome us with lot of place’s recommendations around. The apartment is a cosy place to stay with a little garden in a quiet neighbourhood. It takes around 20/30 min by walk to get to Bermondsey street and London Bridge area where you can find some cute and nice restaurants or coffee places. The second bed requires a certain agility to get to so maybe not the best place for senior people 😉. If I can suggest a little improvement, the place could be a little be more clean.

Summary: The host was friendly and mostly responsive which was helpful. The bed was the most comfortable thing we’ve ever slept in and the shower was great. It had all the utilities we needed including a large drying rack as there is only a washer which is not a problem. The location was very easy to get to by the number 1 bus and had all the space we needed. Unfortunately we had some issues with the place, such as all the utensils were disgusting (all had crusty old food and needed to be rewashed), as a person with severe allergies as well this was worrisome for using the kitchen. There were no knobs on the stove, however the stove did function just fine. The place was not clean, it is worth noting it is a lived in place so the owner does live there when no tenants are there so the level of cleanliness was lower than other VRBOs. There was layers of dirt in the corners, handles of appliances and drawers and the window sill. Not all the electrical worked so the hallway lights did not work at all. We were very uncomfortable as young travellers that the window to the bedroom did not lock, and to that end the window locking mechanism was missing. When we reached out to the host she ignored that part of the message at first (which was the only thing she was unresponsive on to be fair) and then told us to google how to lock windows in the UK when we explained the piece was in fact missing. This was very frustrating and rude as it wasn’t user error the piece simply did not exist.

Summary: The first night we were there we had druggies right out side the apartment yelling and fighting. We didn't feel safe at all so we left and got a hotel for our stay. No refund was given. Also, there's a pornographic picture in the bedroom, so do not bring kids. There's also not a clothing dryer, so don't plan on being able to do laundry.

Summary: THE DOUBLE BED WAS VERY COMFORTABLE, WE WERE ABLE TO MAKE OUR OWN BREAKFASTS MOST MORNINGS, THE BUS NUMBER ONE WAS VERY CONVENIANT AS WE WERE OUT AND ABOUT EVERY DAY. ON OUR LAST DAY COULDN'T FIND THE WASHING MACHINE POWDER/LIQUID SO WERE UNABLE TO WASH THE SHEETS AND TOWELS.

Summary: My friend and I were looking for an affordable place just to lay our heads while we explored London. We enjoyed the location in a quiet neighborhood . The check in process was super easy and we were allowed to drop our luggage early so we could explore London. We ended up taking a couple hour rest before doing that and JoJo was kind enough to let us do that . The place was clean enough but could have used a deep cleaning of floors . One important thing should be noted is that the second bed is accessed only by a latter and very close to the ceiling . My friend and I both had knee surgeries recently so that wasn’t able to be utilized . Also, there is a small step in the hall leading to kitchen that isn’t noticeable until you trip on it —easy solution would be some bright tape because it is definitely a hazard . The apartment is cute and worked for what we needed but could use a deep cleaning , stair marked, and second bed description so people know that it wouldn’t work for a handicap or elderly person in any way . It was about a half mile walk from underground and a little shorter for the bus which we didn’t mind that at all but is good to know . Once again JoJo was responsive and delightful and I would recommend staying there with those improvements .

Summary: We stayed at Jo's 5 nights and it was perfect ! We were two friends, and each had our own bed, one big bedroom, and one mezzanine bed in the leaving room. Lot of space to put our own stuff, and Jo generously let us use all of her stuff :) Being in her own flat gives a very appreciated homey vibe, and the little garden is a must with sunny weather ! Jo is super welcoming and has tons of good adresses ! Thank you again for the easy and great stay !
