Claire is an excellent host. She was very swift in her communication and everything went according to plan. Upon arrival she made us feel welcome by giving us an overview of the neighborhood and pointing out her favorite restaurants. She even stocked the fridge with some basic items and provided us with slippers for the house.

The flat really has great views and the living room and bedrooms are very comfortable. It's also quite close to some fantastic restaurants. We went to two different Vietnamese Restaurants on Kingsland Road, both were excellent. For coffee and sweets I can recommend Pitfield. It's on the way to Old Street station (http://www.pitfieldlondon.com/cafe).

As it was commented by other reviewers, the only thing that detracts a bit from the entire experience is the entrance to the building and the elevator. Clarie is open about it in her description but it is something to consider.
