Nick's flat offers a really great base for a stay in East London. It is within walking distance of some great restaurants and bars (e.g. The Marksman and Morito) as well as being only a few minutes walk from both Columbia Road Market and Broadway Market. It also has great bus links offering really quick access into Hackney or towards Shoreditch and the City.
The photos of the flat are accurate and it was really easy to communicate with Nick both during and before my stay. When I had one small issue during my stay Nick did everything he could to make sure it was resolved as quickly as possible. I stayed in the flat with 2 young children but I would say that this flat is probably best suited to a single person/couple looking to enjoy the area.
The flat is on a busy road, but I knew this in advance and actually didn't find this to be an issue. The bedroom is at the rear of the property.
