A further extension! I am starting to call the room (My room)! Miki has really made me feel part of the household and has helped me feel settled. I will be back next week!
14th Jul 2022
The best testimonial I can give is rebooking the room! Miki has so much experience in the Theatre industry that she not only understands the long hours etc but also has great contacts for any freelancers.

Blimey, thanks Leon!! (sounds as if I've got jobs to offer...eeeeeek!).
Certainly understand the l-o-n-g hours – doing them right now! Thank you for your kind words Leon.
Quite simply ticks every box for convenience to get in to London centre and to have a comfortable homely environment to come back to. Miki goes far and beyond to assist in giving any information one might need to make life easier in London.

I will most definitely be back and would recommended to anyone to book these digs.
Thank you Miki :)
7th Dec 2021
My stay in Lewisham was enhanced by the fact that host Miki, although working long theatrical hours herself, always found time to ensure that the property was adequately provisioned, serviced and properly managed. Many thanks to her.

Last Night of the Proms AND DAVID BADDIEL!!! But you're worth it! Now I sound a bit weird.
Fantastically situated for anyone working in the Southwark area (despite Southeastern Rail's many attempts at challenging my commute!), a warm and welcoming host, and a chilled out house to refuge in at the end of the day. Thank you Miki!
3rd Apr 2017

I'd definitely book again.
9th Apr 2016
My stay at Miki's place was wonderful. She wasn't there but she made sure I would get keys and my arrival would work well. There is Peter also living in the house, a very nice and helpful man.
The house is very clean and quiet. The bedroom was great and the bed comfortable! You have all you need there. The area is great and getting to the city centre isn't a problem.
I would definitely stay there again.
Thank you Miki and Peter for everything!
24th Oct 2015
Fantastic in every respect. Miki and the other housemates were so friendly.
Clean house, clean room, comfy bed, lovely powerful shower, close to train station and convenient for central London.
THANK YOU MIKI!!!
Will definitely book again soon!!!
14th Sep 2015
Marvellous house with the best host lady ever - hospitable, understanding, helpful and supporting. I would recommended it to anyone who is looking for a safe harbour in the busy London life. The house is very clean and spacious, with a new bathtub and all amenities - the beds are comfortable so you'll get a nice sleep as well!
The house is located a short walk from Ladywell station with regular trains into Charing Cross and Cannon Street (15-17 min).
Don't think - book!
Huge thanks
Mona
3rd Sep 2015
Miki was very helpful, and ensured that I could get in even when she wasn't there.
I would stay again.
17th Jun 2015
It was an immense pleasure staying in Miki's home for four weeks. She is a lovely person and a delightful host, always keen to ensure that your stay is comfortable and to your liking. And not forgetting the resident tenant, whom is a breath of fresh air.
The house itself is immaculate and located close to local parks, should you wish to take a scenic break after work. Plenty of local shops on the main street and a large shopping mall further down the road.
A delightful stay. Great value for money.
Just be prepared to go through the harmless initiation ceremony ;-)
Why are you still reading this review? Book now!
24th May 2015
Enjoyed my stay, thank you.
Already booked my return.
Transport into London really easy.
13th Apr 2015
Had an absolutely cracking stay here. Miki the land-lady and the other housemates were absolutely lovely and the house is really comfortable, homely and friendly.
It's really close to both Ladywell and Lewisham train-station which is ideal if you're working in town. There's free private parking too which is really good. There's also a lovely park nearby to go running in(Ladywell fields) and a plethora of shops, a library and anything you could want really in walking distance.
My room was very comfortable with loads of storage space, the shower was always piping hot and a lot of the time I had the whole place to myself. Can't recommend it highly enough.
26th Feb 2015
Genuinely the best digs I have had the pleasure to stay in. The room is lovely; the house well-appointed and located, but it is the welcome that makes the place. Miki is kind and generous to a fault, and will go out of her way to make your stay pleasurable.
I cannot recommend this house enough. The only issue you may have is being the first to book!!
21st Feb 2015
Miki is a fab lady and so very caring and helpful. She is a total delight to stay with and a pleasure to meet.
I hope to stay again.
25th Jan 2015
I had a wonderful stay at this property and would highly recommend it to anyone without reservation.
It is easy to get to downtown and the place is clean and quiet.
Miki was also incredibly welcoming and helpful during my stay.
I would definitely stay here again if I can :-D
13th Nov 2014
Great accommodation.
Just what you need.
Good location. About a 15 minute walk to Lewisham station.
Miki and Loretto went above and beyond!
I will definitely be staying here again :-)
11th Nov 2014
Miki was a fantastic host, Was a pleasure to stay - If only for one night!
The room was nice and cosy and the mattress was a brand new memory foam which was really comfy!
I'd definitely recommend these Digs and will be staying again when i'm next down in London.
Thanks!
12th Oct 2014
Miki was a fantastic host during my stay!
Northing was too much trouble for her and made me feel very welcome in her home!
Accommodation was also in a great location for travel into central London.
Highly recommend and would definitely book again!
19th Aug 2014
Miki is the perfect host and I hope to stay again.
She's a star!
Kind, caring, good fun such a lovely person.
I'm so glad I've met her!
8th Jul 2014
Miki is a lovely lady and was most welcoming during my 3 night stay.
Very friendly and nothing was too much trouble to ensure my stay was a happy one.
Also good communication as well on how to get there etc.
Highly recommend and would happily book again when needing to stay in that area.
6th Jul 2014
Miki is hands down one of the nicest people I've ever met, I had a fantastic time - I've never been made to feel so at home anywhere :-)
Can't wait to come back and visit again soon!
29th Jun 2014
Absolutely wonderful digs, highly recommended.
There are frequent buses as well as being incredibly close to Ladywell Station. Night buses a plenty too.
Can't recommend these digs enough - splendid indeed.
11th Jun 2014
Despite already having a guest, Miki still found space for me in a slightly smaller room, which was still very comfortable!
Not only is Miki a lovely host, but she also has a plentiful supply of chocolate in the kitchen cupboard!
Thanks!

This was an awesome place to stay.
Miki is such a nice host, making sure I was comfortable and showed me around the area.
Plus the train station (Ladywell) is so close (like a 3 min slow walk close), 10 min journey to London Bridge where you tube it.
This is a really lovely place to stay and it felt very homely to come back to each day.
Nothing but positivity for these digs
P.S. You'll never find anywhere cheaper in London, trust me!
26th Apr 2014
Miki is a fantastic host and made my stay like a home away from home .
A lovely bedroom, bathroom and kitchen.
Situated next to Ladywell station & park.
A 10 minute walk to Lewisham station, so transport is great.
I would thoroughly recommend a stay here.
Many thanks

This friendly home was perfect to stay at while working in London.
Ladywell station is literally 5 minutes walk up the road which goes to stations like Waterloo, Charing Cross and London Bridge making getting anywhere very simple.
Bus links outside the property as well to Victoria and the night bus from Charing Cross stops just outside as well, so for transport it's pretty perfect.
The property itself is lovely, really clean and Miki made me feel welcome throughout my time there.
The double room has everything you need including a really comfy double bed. One thing that was a huge bonus about the house for me is the fantastic bath and shower, exactly what you need when you're working, a good hot shower.
Really good value for money and will definitely go again!
Thank you!
