I live near Alexi's place, and needed some extra space as my 15 year old nephew was visiting. The flat is oustanding, one of the nicest city apartments i have stayed in. It is the perfect combination of being stylish, arty,comfortable and functional. Everything is to a really high standard and yet full of quirky character. My teenage nephew loved the different spaces in a split level layout and the privacy it gave him, as well access to loads of cool areas that he loves like Stoke Newington,Dalston, Hackney Central and London Fields as well as Brick Lane. It actually felt like being on a city break for me as well, even though I live 5 minutes away! I really highly recommend this lovely place and feels so authentically "East London."
