Great location, awesome firm-ish King bed (very comfortable sleeps!), upgraded table vs. listing for work. Most amenities to make your stay comfortable. Very reasonable walk to Tube in multiple directions (Liverpool, Aldgate East, Old Street). We would not say it is on a quiet side street, however - it is right by a large pub where people drink outside until bars close and on the main drag directly from an Overground station (so if you are sleeping someone on the couch, bring earplugs!). A very secure apartment with two layers of security. Will get hot/stuffy if you run the washer/dryer. Also - be careful re: running the dryer, as we learned sometimes in UK the dryer has to finish a full cycle before you can even open the doors (accidentally set to 3+ hours in our case since no manual accompanying the dryer). Perhaps if it's cold out that's a good thing, though!
