Ian and Andrew were the perfect hosts, hands down. They replied fast to any questions we had and nothing seemed like too much trouble. Check-in and check-out times were flexible, which we really appreciated since we had flights at odd times. The location of the flat is perfect for walking to Broadway Market and all the amazing independent shops and cafes in Hackney and the Shoreditch/Brick Lane area. Public transport is easily accessible too.

And if you're into interior design, antique hunting or food, Ian and Andrew have brilliant tips and suggestions on where to go. They even provided a long list of their personal restaurant recommendations in the area. These guys have good taste.
