Balham Lodge Overnight Stay

We had a lovely stay here. We were visiting our daughter at UAL so just a short walk to her accommodation. Nice time exploring Balaham. The room was clean, tidy and comfortable and the staff were friendly and helpful. Would recommend and will stay again.

I could hear every step of the person in the room above me which became quite annoying. Sound insulation in the floor could be better. Struggled to close the curtains and when I opened them one hook became detached. Apart from that all fine.

I enjoyed the quiet rooms in a quiet neighborhood for 3 and then 4 nights. Staff was very friendly. The rooms were clean, the first room the shower did not work but it was fixed the next day. The second room had a mattress that might be too soft for someone with back problems, but it was ok for me. The hotel is close to public transportation and convenient. It was a nice place to be.
