We enjoyed our stay in this lovely apartment. It's very clean and quiet and very comfortable. We did not cook, but seemed to have what you'd need to do so. Great directions for everything from checking in to getting the heat on (the heat setting for the heater is in the front hall downstairs high up near the ceiling--I at first thought the one at the top of the stairs was the heat control and did not notice the one in the downstairs hall since it's up so high). Nice to have the on demand hot water since we were traveling and some of us liked to shower at night (we stayed at another rental without that and it was a challenge to get a hot shower). The location is walkable to a lot of things and not a touristy neighborhood. Also near some nicer restaurants--Spitalfields and the Bull and Castle (make reservations in advance we were there in Feb and they were booked out early). Lots of pubs and other restaurants for less expensive meals are also close. I'd recommend it.
