Abayomi’s place was great! It was a good location if you don’t mind being just outside central London. Leyton ( central line) was a 10 min walk ( on the same street) while Stratford ( with many lines) was about 15 min walk. At both the stations you have larger grocery and shopping stores. Westfield mall at Stratford is great. And there were a few convenience stores along the walk from Leyton to the flat. There were also buses outside the flat that would take you in either direction. It is a bit of a quieter area so it was great for my month long stay. You do have a travel a little bit further for restaurants and pubs, but still location was totally worth it.
The building felt really secure and safe.
Would absolutely stay again for my next trip across the pond.
