Communication with David prior to arrival was very prompt & courteous with clear instructions about locating & accessing the property, giving peace of mind to a newcomer to airbnb. David was most welcoming & helpful, sharing his extensive knowledge & experience of London and, in particular, being a local resident for many years. Having my own set of keys meant I could freely come & go which fitted into my schedule perfectly. The accommodation is very reasonably priced and as described, with my own double bedroom & access to shared kitchen, bathroom & outside garden area. I also found the surrounding streets safe to walk at nights, the property being in one of the quieter areas of London, situated close to a park and a canal. The parks, incidentally, are locked at nights. The nearest tube stations (Mile End & Bethnal Green) are only a short 10 minute walk away, making it very convenient for accessing London attractions & places of interest. Overall, as a place to stay for the single traveller it ticks all the boxes.
