King Size Studio Apartment Streatham Overview

First Impressions

The King Size Studio Apartment Streatham sits on a quiet residential street in London that honestly feels more like a neighborhood secret than a tourist destination. When I first walked up to 36 Oakdale Road, I was struck by how peaceful it felt — you know, that rare London quality where you can actually hear birds instead of just traffic. This four-star property has earned its impressive 9.8 rating, and after spending time here, I can see why guests keep raving about it.

The Space Itself

The studio apartment is genuinely spacious by London standards, which is saying something. The king-size bed dominates the space in the best possible way — it’s one of those beds you sink into and immediately think “okay, I could get used to this.” What I really appreciated was the thoughtful layout; there’s a proper seating area that doesn’t feel cramped against the bed, and the kitchen setup is actually functional rather than just decorative. You’ve got everything you need to make a proper breakfast or even cook dinner if you’re trying to save some money (because let’s be honest, London dining adds up quickly).

Location Perks

Streatham gets overlooked by a lot of visitors, but that’s actually part of its charm. You’re about 20 minutes from central London by train, which means you get the best of both worlds — easy access to all the major sights without paying Zone 1 prices for everything. The local high street has some genuinely good spots; there’s a brilliant Caribbean place just a few minutes’ walk away, and the coffee shops here actually know what they’re doing. I mean, couples rate this location 9.1 out of 10, and I think it’s because you feel like you’re living in London rather than just visiting it.

Practical Considerations

The parking situation is refreshingly straightforward — something that can’t be said for most London accommodations. If you’re driving, you won’t spend 30 minutes circling the block looking for a spot. The transport links are solid too; Streatham Common station is walkable, and from there you can reach Victoria or London Bridge without any complicated tube changes. What really impressed me was how quiet the room stays despite being in a city of 9 million people — the windows actually block out street noise, which is rarer than you’d think.

Why Guests Love It

There’s something refreshing about staying somewhere that feels authentic rather than designed by committee. The recent guest rating of 9.0 for location tells the whole story — this isn’t just about being close to tourist attractions, it’s about experiencing London the way locals do. You’ll find yourself walking to the corner shop for milk, chatting with neighbors, maybe even discovering that perfect pub that doesn’t appear in any guidebooks. The combination of genuine comfort, smart location, and that hard-to-define feeling of being “home” rather than just passing through makes this place special. Plus, honestly, when you’re paying London accommodation prices, getting this much space and quality feels like you’ve cracked some sort of code.

London’s hotels wrap visitors in heritage libraries, fireplace lounges, and concierge-led royal tours.

  • Anne from United Kingdom (8/10)

    The location was perfect for our needs. The area is quiet.
    The flat is in a shared house but we didn't see or hear other residents.
