Property Title • Aug 16 - Aug 19, 2025
Hola, planeo venir del 16/08 al 19/08, solo quería preguntarte si la cuna ya estaría en el alojamiento o si es a petición. Además, ¿hay un ascensor disponible, ya que tenemos un bebé en cochecito? Y si no te molesta, ¿podrías decirnos las atracciones más cercanas y en qué zona está la estación de Bermondesy? Gracias. :)
Jul 28, 2025 07:39 PMHi Ali Hafeez, I’m glad you’re considering my apartment for your stay.✨ Regarding the crib, it’s always available to be set up. You’ll find it in the apartment closet. Yes, there’s an elevator in the building, so you won’t have any problem with the baby stroller. As for nearby attractions: Tower Bridge is 10 minutes by car or 25 minutes walking, Borough Market is very close. You’ll find many more attractions detailed in the guest manual that will be in the apartment, which also contains QR codes with exact locations and distances. Bermondsey station is on the Jubilee Line (gray tube line) and is a 13-minute walk from the apartment.

Jul 28, 2025 09:04 PMHi Ali Hafeez, Thank you for your booking. I'm looking forward to hosting you 😊 I've put quite a bit of effort into making the place nice for AirBnB so please look after it 🙏🏼 The earliest check in is 3pm. Checkout is 11am. Here's some information that will help you get around the flat. Most of these are straightforward, the general rule of thumb is that I would expect you to treat my flat as you would your own: take the shoes off when in the flat, don’t smoke inside the flat (but you can smoke in the roof garden), avoid playing loud music after 10pm etc... There is wardrobe space in both rooms cleared out for you. 🚪Doors Access is via a keypad and code. Very simple. You will receive details for this a few days before. Please note that my apartment door doesn't lock by itself, *so please lock when leaving* 🔑 🚘 Parking There is paid on street residents parking - I'm happy to book and cover the cost of this for you. But you will need to tell me in advance so I can register the virtual permit with the council. 🌡Heating You can control the heating in each room individually using the thermostat on the radiator. Simply turn the dial on it. 🎵 Music & Lights Please refer to the flat manual (http://corley.me/manual.pdf) ☕️ Coffee & Food There is a Nespresso coffee machine with capsules supplied. Tea, as well as mugs, can be found in the cupboards in the kitchen. Please feel free to make use of the spices and condiments. Feel free to use store cupboard items within reason. Anything in the fridge is fair game 🍸 🪣 Appliances In the kitchen, you have an oven, stove, microwave, fridge, dishwasher, toaster & blender, which are all easy to use. Happy to share cooking tips :) There's also a library of cookbooks which you're more than welcome to use! 📽 Projector Please refer to the flat manual (http://corley.me/manual.pdf) 🚮 Waste and Recycling: Trash/rubbish bin is hidden in the corner cupboard. If you want to take rubbish out the bins are on your left as you go out the door to the building. 📍The postcode of the flat is SE1 5LJ. The flat is on the 3rd floor at the end of the corridor. You will receive full address details in due course. 🧡 Finally, This is my home when I’m not travelling, so I’ve tried to make it cosy and welcoming for you too. If anything feels off or could be improved, even something small, just let me know — I’ll do my best to sort it out. And if you’re happy, a little 5★ love always means a lot!😊 p.s. If it's your first time in London, I'd highly recommend downloading an app called CityMapper for navigating public transport. It has all the options on it and it very upto date and accurate 🚎 🚉
Jul 29, 2025 08:24 PMWill you be requiring the sofa for sleeping as well as the two (double and superking) beds? Let me know in advance so I can arrange extra linen. Please note that it isn't a sofa bed. However, it's a large comfortable sofa to sleep on - I can attest to that myself😊 Thanks!

Jul 29, 2025 08:46 PMHola, Mark: Gracias por la información detallada. ¡Lamento mi respuesta tardía! Podemos usar el sofá si es necesario, así que por favor arregla la ropa de cama adicional. Estoy seguro de que tendremos algunas preguntas más a medida que se acerque nuestra estadía, así que me pondré en contacto contigo más cerca de la fecha. ¡Nos vemos pronto! Un cordial saludo, Ali
Jul 31, 2025 04:32 PMPerfect. Thanks for letting me know. Looking forward to hosting you!
Jul 31, 2025 04:36 PMBuenos días, Mark, espero que estés bien. ¿Podrías también organizar el estacionamiento para nosotros, por favor? Gracias.
Aug 14, 2025 03:02 AMAdemás, si tienes alguna recomendación para el mejor pase de viaje familiar para usar en Londres (como tarjetas Oyster, Travelcards o descuentos familiares), te agradeceríamos mucho tu consejo. Gracias
Aug 14, 2025 03:03 AMHi Ali Hafeez, Of couse, I will need the following information to book in your visitor parking permit: Car Registration No. Car Make Car Model Colour Once you have this information I will be able to book it in and you will be able to park on the streets around the flat. Please note I can't be held responsible for you parking unsafely and getting a ticket for any offence other than not having a valid permit.
Aug 14, 2025 03:05 AMBermondsey tube station (on the Jubilee Line) is a 13min walk away from the flat. The postcode of the flat is SE1 5LJ. I'd highly recommend downloading an app called CityMapper for navigating public transport in London. It has all the options on it and it very upto date and accurate. You can pay for all public transport in London just using any contactless bank card. Or you can buy and Oystercard. I use the first option 😊
Aug 14, 2025 03:08 AMHola Mark, gracias por tu rápida respuesta. REag: YA66XVN BMW X1 Plata Muchas gracias. Ali
Aug 14, 2025 03:33 AMThank you for all the details. I will peocess your parking today 😊
Aug 14, 2025 06:03 AMGracias.
Aug 14, 2025 06:07 AMHi Ali Hafeez, I have now purchased virtual visitor parking permit from the council for the duration of your stay (these are also valid for the full 24 hours on the day of checkin and checkout). You just need to make sure you park in a permit holders only bay on the street. I've put together a pdf with some instructions to help find a bay: https://corley.me/parking.pdf There is no need to display anything in the car - the permit is virtual and has been fully paid. Let me know if you have any questions 😊
Aug 14, 2025 09:16 AMHope you're looking forward to your stay in two days time! Check in is simple: 1. When you get to the building buzz flat 1️⃣3️⃣ on the intercom. The door will open automatically. 2. Flat 13 is on floor 3, right at the end. Use code 🔐 663661 🔐 to open my flat door. **When you leave, press the ◀️ 'back' button on the keypad to lock the door.** (if for some reason the digital lock doesn't work there is a *backup physical key* in the top right key safe, to the right hand side of the garage door & bins, outside the building. Code: 2820)
Aug 14, 2025 05:00 PMGracias, Mark. Esperamos con ansias nuestra estadía. No vemos la hora de hacer el check-in y explorar. Gracias por compartir los detalles del permiso de estacionamiento. Puedo ver que los permisos cubren del 16 al 18 de agosto hasta las 23:59 cada día. Como salimos el 19 a las 11:00 a. m., ¿podrías asesorarme sobre el estacionamiento para la mañana del 19? ¿Funcionará el mismo arreglo hasta que hagamos el check-out? Muchas gracias.
Aug 14, 2025 07:37 PMOf course, In the second image you have your booking for 19th. You have full 24hs parking on the day of checkin and checkout 😊 Looking forward to hosting you! ✨️
Aug 14, 2025 07:43 PM¡Gracias por confirmar los detalles del estacionamiento! Sin embargo, no recibí la segunda imagen que enviaste. Agradezco mucho tu ayuda y espero con ansias mi estadía.
Aug 14, 2025 07:47 PMOh, thank you for letting me know 🙏 I will send it again. I'm glad you're excited to visit London! I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time. I'm here for whatever you need.
Aug 14, 2025 07:51 PMJust a quick FYI, the Bluetooth for the speakers is out of action, but you can easily turn the projector on and play music through the PC. ✨️
Aug 15, 2025 08:00 AMMuchas gracias
Aug 15, 2025 08:35 PMHere's some details to help you locate my flat: Flat 13, Sultan House, 238 Saint James Road, SE1 5LJ The entrance to my building is actually on Lynton Road, just off St James Road on the crossroads. The entrance to my flat is on floor 3. Come up the lift and go straight ahead right to the end of the corridor and the flat is on your left. (please arrive on or after your 3pm check-in time unless we've agreed otherwise).
Aug 16, 2025 09:00 AM¡Gracias!
Aug 16, 2025 09:06 AMHola, hemos llegado, pero solo hay un letrero de estacionamiento TF, no CfTF. Por favor, avísanos.
Aug 16, 2025 01:39 PMLo siento TS, ¿dónde está TS CF?
Aug 16, 2025 01:46 PMHi Ali, That is perfect
Aug 16, 2025 02:07 PMGenial, gracias
Aug 16, 2025 02:08 PMSorry for the delay, there you have an image 😊
Aug 16, 2025 02:08 PMGracias,
Aug 16, 2025 02:11 PMTienes un paquete entregado, ¿dónde debo poner este paquete?
Aug 16, 2025 02:11 PMOh Thank you 🙏 if you can put it in the cover in the second versión, that would be amazing 😊🙏
Aug 16, 2025 02:12 PMWe have some mantenience days on weekend, so it should be for that 😊
Aug 16, 2025 02:13 PMLo siento, ¿qué quieres decir con la segunda versión?
Aug 16, 2025 02:17 PMSorry, it was a mistake. I wanted to say, "the second room" 🙏🏽
Aug 16, 2025 02:25 PMI hope you feel as at home 😊 I am here for anything you need.
Aug 16, 2025 02:26 PMGracias, ¡me siento como en casa! Definitivamente me pondré en contacto si es necesario. 😊
Aug 16, 2025 02:31 PMSolo pensé en hacerte saber, estaba aquí antes de que entráramos. Gracias.
Aug 16, 2025 03:17 PMThank you Ali. Yes, don't worry, we already called carpet specialists for deep cleaning but they told us that it can't be removed. We are waiting for new ones to be put in. 😊
Aug 16, 2025 04:27 PMPor alguna razón, la puerta principal de abajo no se abría a pesar de presionar el timbre, ¿tienes alguna idea de por qué puede suceder eso?
Aug 16, 2025 04:55 PMIt's still in the ring to open mode, so it should be working
Aug 16, 2025 04:58 PMBut if you're stuck, you can always use the physical keys: If you are at the entrance to the building if you look to your right hand side then you will see some rubbish bins. There is a key safe mounted on the wall to the right of the bins. The top right key safe code is 2820. ⛔️ Don't forget to return the keys to the key safe at the end of your stay. 😊
Aug 16, 2025 04:59 PMHi Ali Hafeez, hope you've settled in nicely. Let me know if you need anything or if anything isn't upto scratch. If anything isn't 5* worthy I'd much prefer if you communicate with me and I can try and make it right 🙏🏻
Aug 17, 2025 07:00 AMHey Ali Hafeez, FYI: the checkout time is at 11am tomorrow. Just lock up when you leave. I've got the rubbish and bed linen covered so you don't have to worry about a thing! Thanks so much, you've been awesome! I'll be leaving you an all 5* review! ☺️👍
Aug 18, 2025 05:00 PMHola, ¿hasta qué hora es el permiso de estacionamiento mañana? Me preguntaba si el permiso de estacionamiento podría extenderse hasta las 9:00 p. m. Por favor. Muchas gracias.
Aug 18, 2025 05:11 PMHi Ali, the parking is already fully paid until 23:59 tomorrow, so you can stay parked for the whole day 😊👍🏽
Aug 18, 2025 05:43 PMGracias, eso es perfecto. El apartamento es increíble, tenía todo lo que necesitábamos. Dejaré una reseña, seguro. 👍 👌
Aug 18, 2025 05:48 PMSo glad you enjoyed 😊🙏🏽
Aug 18, 2025 05:48 PMHola, Mark: Acabamos de salir del apartamento a las 10:57. ¡Gracias por hospedarnos, realmente disfrutamos de nuestra estancia! Por cierto, puede que huela mal, el bebé sacó un poco de leche. Gracias Ali y familia
Aug 19, 2025 09:09 AMHi Ali, So good to hear that, I am glad that you enjoyed✨️ Thanks for being so kind guests. Have a nice travel!
Aug 19, 2025 10:48 AM¡Nos encantó nuestra estancia en casa de Mark! El piso tenía todo lo que necesitábamos y más, y la vista de la azotea por la noche era increíble. Las habitaciones estaban súper limpias, la sala de estar se sentía muy acogedora y el proyector era un bono muy divertido. La ubicación también fue excelente, a unos 15 minutos a pie de la estación de Bermondsey, además de estacionamiento justo afuera. Fue fácil comunicarse con Mark y fue un verdadero Superanfitrión. En general, ¡una estancia fantástica!
Sep 03, 2025 05:47 PMLo siento, Mark, no me di cuenta de que había un período de evaluación de 14 días, de lo contrario, ¡habría dejado esta reseña antes! Ali
Sep 03, 2025 05:49 PMHi Ali, Thanks so much for such a great feedback 🙏✨️ I am happy to heard that, You are always welcome!😊
