Great communication from host & reasonably spacious apartment with everything you need to live there as if it were your own home.
Pros:
- Nice short walk to station, lots of shops near by, 10 min walk to brick lane & Shoreditch etc. so great for markets and shopping
- Good fast communication from host, easy pickup of keys from agent box nearby
- Very close to supermarkets and Boris bikes which was great
- Good sized kitchen and was pleasantly surprised to find own washing machine in apartment as well
Cons:
- Drain in the shower was blocked when I arrived and was told to buy draino from supermarket myself - with no luck, bath tub would be filled with water as a result at all times not very pleasant to shower.
- Quite noisy most nights from the council flats surrounding the apartment. Bedroom window and kitchen windows back onto the council housing parking lot which is filled with young guys partying and doing burnouts most nights from 12-4am usually. A little dangerous to walk around if alone at night time but no issues coming and going to work in the daylight or getting an uber home if dark. Worth it for the per night cost however so no complaints.
