Fantastic, lively location -- but if you're arriving from afar, don't expect to sleep off jet lag if you don't have decent ear plugs! The fab Italian restaurant downstairs is buzzing. It's noisy from early morning until pretty late... that said, Emma forewarns of this and I knew it might be a bit loud. The place itself was bigger than I'd thought and very rustic-stylish in its simplicity. Everything worked. The bed in the main bedroom was really comfy -- and the linen fresh and new. I really loved staying here and the location on the weekends was fantastic. Great for supermarkets, pubs and restaurants and so close to Brick Lane and Spitalfields. There are Santander bike places within a few minutes' walk and it only takes 15-20 mins to get to Clerkenwell / Holborn. And if it's wet, there's the 55 bus, two-minutes' walk away. The staff in the restaurant downstairs were really helpful and friendly. Top marks from me... and I would definitely stay her again. Emma gets back in touch very quickly by Air BnB messages and was an excellent host. Thanks!
