Had a great time in Whitechapel. The location is great, 10 min walk to two tube stops on different lines, close to weekend markets (Spitalfields and Brick Lane), a lovely Waitrose for food shopping and Tower of London and Tower bridge close by for some everyday site seeing (loved walking to the tube and 'just passing' the tower on the way, what a commute. The apartment is great too, modern, great wifi and everything you need to feel at home.
