Info de Sidney

Did not end up staying at the flat. We showed up to the room and an unknown man followed us up the stairs and took our luggage and took us to another building. He told us we were in the wrong building even though we followed the directions precisely. The man continued to tell us that we were not in the correct spot and tried to get us to stay in one of his locations. We started to leave and he followed us in a car. We decided to leave the area all together and book another hostel. Very unsettling situation when you are travelling to another country.

Apartamento en muy mal estado. Las fotos no se corresponden con lo que te encuentras. No está regentado por nadie. Es una opción de alojamiento económico, pero para el servicio y el estado en el que se encuentra no merece la pena. Tuvimos mucha suerte con la gente que se alojaba allí (gente maja). No volvería.

La salle de bain est minuscule est plein d'humidité, l'appartement en lui-même est un peu insalubre bien qu'il ait été refait. Je n'en garde pas un super bon souvenir...

Je m'attendais à une chambre un peu plus grande car nous étions 3.
Mais vu le rapport qualité pris cela me convient.

The pictures are much better than the reality. To much people for only one small toilet and one bathroom. The walls are very thin, you can hear everything. Our neighbors were very loud and waked us up at 2 o'clock in the night.

It ist really not a safe area and it's far away from the city - not just one underground station away from the city!

Eigentlich war es eine ganz normal drei Zimmer Wohnung. Wenn man mag kann man sicher auch mit den "Mitbewohnern" in Kontakt kommen. Das Zimmer war klein aber völlig ausreichend wenn man eh den ganzen Tag unterwegs ist. Im Bett konnten wir gut schlafen.

The place was awful! I didn't stay more than an hour, just the time to find another place. The room didn't look absolutely as in the picture. I wasn't expecting luxury, but the whole flat looked shabby and very small. The extra matrass (that we didn't need) was in the room and all dirty, there was mould on the window, the common spaces were not clean, in the kitchen all felt sticky, hairs in the tab from the other people you share the bathroom, dirty vac on top of the fridge, there was just nothing nice in this appartement! Me and my 15 year old daughter also felt very unconfortable about the aerea, I wouldn't have walked home by night! so we left and fortunately found a nice and clean place.
It's a place for very young people who don't care much, absolutely not recommendable for families.

The appartment was really bright and clean. It had 4 rooms for 2 persons each. Sadly there had been some problems with our room. We originally booked two rooms, one of them the only one with two seperate beds but it got mixed up and we had to leave it after two days and move in one with a double bed. But that aside it was great and really good for that price. And we were in the inner city within minutes.

The apartment looks like on the pictures! However, what you do not see is the neighborhood. It is really multi-cultural but socially week. I arrived there with my girlfriend and we decided to not stay in the apartment, as it seemed really unsecured! If you are two guys, go for it! But with a girl, I would never recommend it. As well, the host leaves a padlock with keys to the apartment outside, which, in my opinion, is just warm welcoming sign for thieves. We booked a whole week but did not even stay there an hour. Although the host, Sidney, was really friendly on the phone, he was not willing to refund us the price. After two phone calls with 9flats, he only offered us 20% refund under the condition that I do not evaluate him. Seemed really unfair to us...

Sidney is a very nice hosts. The apartment is clean and comes with the essentials, including fast wi-fi, location is great too, I absolutely recommend this place!

Das Zimmer ist sehr gut von der City aus erreichbar (durchgehender Bus fährt ca. 30 min, oder mit U-Bahn, London Overground). Es ist eine Wohnung mit 4 Zimmern, gepflegt und sauber, die Reinigungsfrau kommt täglich, Küche und Kühlschrank funktionieren gut, jedes Zimmer hat sein eigenes Fach im Schrank oder Kühlschrank. Alles ist gut durchdacht. Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.
,

Wohngegend sehr runtergekommen.
Die Wohnung sieht auf den Bildern um einiges besser und sauberer aus, als sie eigentlich ist. Die Bilder zeigen z.T. nicht die wirkliche Wohnung. Das Geschirr klebte teilweise schon im Schrank fest. Grundsätzlich war es einigermaßen sauber, aber z.b. die Heizungen sind sehr verdreckt und hatten Roststellen. Schimmel an der Decke im Bad. Das Bett war sehr unbequem. Die Federn der Matratze waren deutlich zu sehen und zu spüren! Flecken auf Bettlagen und Bettdecke (optisch sah es nach Schimmelflecken aus). Bettgestell war an einer Ecke kaputt. Das Fenster ging extrem schwer auf, da die Griffe bereits abgebrochen waren. Als Frau hat man keine Chance es zu öffnen. Durch das geschlossene Fenster hat es stark gezogen. Die Heizung und das warme Wasser fielen eine Nacht/Tag komplett aus. Das W-LAN war nur an zwei von fünf Tagen verfügbar!
Lage war i.O. bezogen auf Anbindung zur U-Bahn.

Sidney es un excelente anfitrión. La habitación es grande y comoda, el piso esta a 15 minutos del centro y es una zona tranquila. Es mi primera experiencia en 9flats y estoy realmente feliz de esta aventura.
Sin duda la mejor elección!! Recomiendo esta casa al 100%
Muchos abrazos.

Great place in the vibrant community of Deptford. Sidney was there to welcome us and communications were excellent before and during our stay. The room was quite at night and the bed was comfortable. A short walk to the tube.

Thanks to Sidney we really enjoyed our stay in London. His room was bright and warm and the apartment had all we needed for this short visit to London. From the apartment you need to walk for about five minutes to get to New Cross Station. Then you can catch a train straight to Charing Cross. From door to door it's about 20-30 minutes. Sidney gave us lots of tips on where to eat and other things to see. We will come back for sure.

The room was bright and warm. We were pleased that the flat was kept clean. There were some other people that stayed over when we were there, but they were very nice. The internet was fast and the shower was warm. Finding the place was easy with Sidney's instructions. We were also given a security code to get a key to let us into the flat. We then found our keys in the room. Getting into the centre was easy and fast. This is a budget place that is great if you want a secure, comfortable place that gets you into the centre quickly.

The room was perfect for our stay. It was cheap and had all: good wifi, bedding and towels, clean room, kitchen and bathroom, easy to get to the centre, close to the shops. We recommend.

Sidney is a great host and his apartment is exactly what you see in the pictures. Very clean and tidy, well organised and also there is a fantastic view of London from the balcony. Perfect for exploring London, with good transport links. For the price this room is one of the best. Highly recommended!

Sidney was there to welcome us and gave us some tips to start our trip in London regarding accommodation, mobile phone and Oyster card.
The atmosphere in the flat was very peaceful and friendly, we had a chat with Sidney and the other interesting roommates.

Room was clean, transport and getting to the centre was easy, shops were close.

Flat was clean, good equipped kitchen. Very good location. Unfortunately wifi didn't work.

This was a last minute trip and my first time using 9flats. The host was really quick to respond to me with all the instructions on how to arrive and get the key. I got to the apartment really late and had to call the host. It wasn't a problem for him. He explained how to get in and get my key. The room itself is excellent if you are looking for somewhere cheap and convenient. I had a good nights sleep. Other benefits are use of the kitchen and decent wifi. All in all it was a very good experience. I will definitely use 9flats and this room again.

We decided to stay with Sidney because the room was a very good price and it was close to things we wanted to see. We were happy with the stay as the room was decent and with transport we got to the centre quickly. If you are looking for a cheap, friendly and safe place, I recommend here.

A spacious room with two comfortable single beds and two pull out beds for extra people. The room was clean, quiet and made out nicely. The wifi was strong and fast. From the apartment is was easy to get to:
Shops - about 2 minutes
Station - about 5 minutes
Bus stop - about 1 minute
The apartment is in zone 2, but getting to the centre was quick and easy.
We liked that Sidney gave us instructions, which allowed a 24 hour check in.
The price performance ratio of this room was excellent!

The bathroom was quite small, but the host was going to renovate.
The booked room was clean and tidy.
Wifi was good, the host provided an hair dryer and towels. Very kind.
Flat was ten minutes from tube station. Unfortunately we did'nt found the indicated supermarket. Everything else was fine.

Nette Wohnung, gut ausgestattete moderne Küche, gemütliches Schlafzimmer. Perfekt für 2 Personen. Vielen Dank, wir kommen gerne wieder!

We had a fantastic time in London. Sidney's room/flat was a really good economical solution for us. The room was cosy, warm and clean. Wifi was fast. Getting into central London was easy from New Cross Station. Depford Bridge Station is also close and gives good access to the ExCeL exhibition centre. We would happily recommend this place.

We had a very nice stay in London. The room was spacious, clean and well looked after. The rest of the flat was also nice. It was located close to the metro and buses. We found it easy to access the centre. We would come back to this place on our next visit to London.

It was our first time to use 9flats, so we were a little nervous. However, the process went as smoothly as a hotel booking. Once we had paid online a confirmation message came through from the host. We were give full instructions on how to get there and a code to enable us to get in by ourselves. The room was exactly that in the pictures. It was simple, clean and quiet. The bed was comfortable. We used the fridge to store milk and drinks and used the kitchen to prepare breakfast. The flat is in zone 2, but close by buses and the tube get you to the centre fast. London is really expensive, so we would rate the value of this place very highly.

This was our first 9flats experience, and I can only say positive things about it. We didn't meet Sidney until the morning after we arrived, but Jeffrey (Sidney's helper) gave us a warm welcome and all the information we needed to get started.

The bedroom is clean and comfortable, the bathroom is also spotlessly clean. Very nice to have use of the kitchen and the fridge. The internet was fast.

Our interaction with Sidney was quite limited, due to our packed schedule, but he was very helpful and accommodating. The location is very convenient with good bus and Tube connections nearby - it only took about 20 minutes to get to Charing Cross.

Considering the location, the flat is unbelievably quiet and peaceful. We found some nice pubs nearby to quench our thirst.

Our stay in London was really very nice. Before arriving Sidney sent us clear instructions on how to arrive and how to get into the apartment. We found the room and the common areas of the apartment to be very clean. There was also a cleaner that came in every day. The wifi was very fast. The walk to the station was quick and there were many buses going to the centre. There were lots of shops close by and many of them were open until after midnight. Sidney was really helpful and kind. We would stay there again if we ever go back to London.

uns, ein nichtraucher rentnerehepaar, hat es bei Sidney Beooks gut. gefallen.
es war alles vorhanden was für die übernachtung, körperpflege und entspannung notwendig ist.

Our stay in this place was disappointing. We were there at the end of may in 2014.
First of all the building is under construction and therefore it was dirty ouside. Not many people seemed to live there and this made us feel less secure. By the time we were there two men spend one night there. As they arrived the appartement smelled horrible and when we came back in the evening we noticed that someone took our food from the fridge. The fridge is outside the room so everyone can use it. All in all wie did not like the place and would not go there again.

Pas de miroir dans la chambre (un minimum), ni dans la salle de bain.
Cadenas sur la porte grillagée avec les clés ! il faut deviner le code bien entendu mais si SIDNEY BROOKS avait répondu comme c'était indiqué sur son mail et sur le site nous l'aurions su...

El barrio está situado en una zona mala de Londres, eso si tiene muy buena comunicación con el centro.
En las fotos se ve mucho más bonito y cuidado de lo que es en realidad. Limpieza de baños y cocina muy buena. La habitación deja más que desear, una moqueta llena de manchas y un armario que no se podía abrir por el mal olor.
El ruido del tren pasando cada 5 minutos es muy molesto.

The appartment is very clean, in a quiet place, close to New Cross Station, leading to London Bridge in a few time.

You got a view to the City from the balcony, which is beautiful at night.
In the neighbourhood, you can find a very nice pub, and a small general store shop.

Very good experience indeed.
If I had to be back in London, I'd choose this flat once again without any hesitation.

Logement propre, pas chers, bien équipé.
MAIS ATTENTION, très LOIN du centre! Nous avons à chaque fois mis 1h30 aller et 1h30 retour minimum pour accéder aux attractions touristiques en train en métro, et non pas 7 minutes comme il est mis sur la description du logement!!
Donc déconseillé si vous n'avez que très peu de temps à passer à Londres.

großes Zimmer, wie auf dem Bild, Toilette und Bad waren getrennt, so dass man mit den anderen Urlaubern nicht ins Gehege kam
Küche war gut ausgestattet

Wir waren für 5 Tage zu dritt in London. Das Zimmer bot zwar nicht viel Platz, war jedoch zum Übernachten vollkommen ok. Das Bad ist leider nicht so schön, jedoch nicht schmutzig. Im Zimmer hatten wir keinen WLAN-Empfang, auf dem Flur konnte man das WLAN jedoch nutzen. Die Anbindung mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln ist gut. Zur Bahn benötigt man ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß, mit dem Zug ist man dann in ca. 15 Minuten im Zentrum.

We had a really good time in the apartment and very much enjoyed the stay. The apartment is a minute or two from the staion. You are in central London in 10 minutes. There are also many buses going to the centre. Inside the apartment it is clean and well maintained. Thank you Sidney.

Die Zimmer sind sehr klein, da man dort nicht nur Schlafen, Koffer lagern sondern auch Essen muss. Die Küche ist zweckmäßig eingerichtet. Jedoch mehr als zwei Personen haben keinen Platz darin. Das Inventar der Wohnung ist alt und abgenutzt. Auf hygienische Sauberkeit wird keinen Wert gelegt. Die Lage war gut. Es gibt eine direkte Busverbindung bis in die Innenstadt (47 min Fahrt bis zum Picadilly Circus). Ansonsten kommt man gut und zentral mit den oben genannten Overground-Stationen in die Stadt.

We had a great experience at this place. It was cheap, clean, well organised, closed to the station, minutes from the centre and the people around, including Sidney and the neighbours, were all really nice.

We found the room to very convenient and economical. It was clean with space for all of us and a good wi-fi connection. The use of the bathroom and kitchen was useful. Many things in the apartment were new, such as the kitchen and the bathroom. It is well connected to the city centre by a near by tube station and buses that run day and night. We were really pleased to stay!

The place was so convenient for our trip as we could get to the tube in a few minutes and then we were in the center after another five minutes. The apartment itself wad nice and the kitchen and bathroom were new and always so clean. The price was also really good. Recommend!
