I had to travel to London for work and picked this place as it looked OK and was close to my office. Going into it I had relatively low expectations based on the pics on AirBNB - it looked OK, but nothing special. That opinion changed when I got there. The place is actually really cool with very high ceilings - probably around 12 feet high in both the kitchen/living area and the bedroom. The kitchen is very modern as well which doesn't show in the pictures. It's also in a pretty cool area - it's only a couple minute walk to Liverpool Street tube station, the Tower of London, Tower Bridge, etc., etc. The only downfall is that the area is a business district so most of the shops and food places nearby close at 7pm. There is a grocery store that is down the street that stays open late though.
You can also take a 10min or so walk down the street and go into the Shoreditch area which is a popular spot full of restaurants and bars as well.
All in all I was very surprised by this apartment, in a good way, and will definitely stay there again if I get sent to London for work again. I highly recommend this place!
