Julia's flat in Shoreditch is the perfect home base for a long or short stay. We were there for about a week and the location is ideal. Everything one could want or need is within walking distance and getting around wider London is a breeze. The flat itself is on the second floor of a three storey walk up. It's sparkling clean with big, beautiful windows and excellent black out shades. It's compact, but spacious, and the bedroom and living room areas are comfortable places to relax between busy days of exploration. The kitchen includes a great washer, drying rack, fridge & freezer, oven, stove, microwave, percolator, toaster, dish & drinkware, pots, pans etc. for all your basic cooking needs. There's a Tesco Express & Salisbury supermarket within 5 minutes walking distance for necessities and food shopping. Loads of coffee shops are nearby as well. You don't have to look far for a good time in Shoreditch because entertainment is right downstairs. It's a popular neighborhood for partying so do expect some after hours noise floating in from the street below. Wifi, heat & hot water worked great. It was my first time in London and I'm so fortunate to have been introduced to this great city by way of Julia's home. Don't hesitate to book!
