I loved staying at Lol's flat in East London! The flat was very comfortable and served as the perfect home base for me during my stay. Hackney is a great, up and coming area and is very central to most of the other areas I wanted to visit during my stay. I was able to get groceries a short walk away, and loved having the park right next door. It can be a bit stressful navigating the city, but with apps like CityMapper and UberPool it was really easy to get around and get back to the flat. I also really liked having the balcony and even though it's December it was warm enough to enjoy a cup of tea on the balcony! Just lovely!
