I had a wonderful stay in east London at Jane's flat. Traveling alone, I explored the diverse area of Hackney and enjoyed running by the river house boats, wandering the markets, and frequenting the local cafes and shops--all within a stone's throw. I was able to get to Central London to see major museums and theater in no time-about a 30-45 minute tube ride with simple transfers. Jane was great and made me feel right at home! I will definitely stay here again if it is available next time I'm in London!
