Claire's apartment was perfect for the 5 of us, spacious, modern, light, clean and fully equipped with everything you need, especially the kitchen. We only missed a hair dryer - the ladies...! For those who come from the quiet country side, like us, bring ear plugs as the city never sleeps.
There are two train stations really close by, so it's easy and quick to get to Central London and also to Stansted airport (via Stratford), and a supermarket right around the corner. We can recommend Lardo's and L'entrepot for good food, and don't miss the coffee in the Italian café in Hachney Downs station - one of the best we had!
