I was met promptly by Sophie and her partner on the first day, the stay was booked as I had an interim period between selling my home and moving into the new place.

The flat is part of a new high quality block on a fairly new development, with great transport links. The property itself is immaculate, well decorated and not too small. It's also right next to the Thames Barrier park which is a bonus. On site there is a well equipped gym, which i've found very useful, although apart from a small convenience store and dry cleaner there are no other facilities on site or even within quick walking distance. The DLR stop is around 60 seconds walk so couldn't be handier, so if you need essentials just pick them up in town or at the small shop on site (it's not cheap though).

Within the flat were all the essentials you could need, including TV and wifi. A balcony overlooks the Thames through the communal courtyard. The flat is very close to London City airport, although due to restrictions flights are rare to hear during weekends (due to regulations, plus flights take off/land in the opposite directions at times to make the frequency even lower). So no noise issues unless you had windows open when a small bunch of flights take off from 6.30am on weekdays.

Parking is a known struggle in the area so I'd advise against trying to bring a car for your stay.

Overall the stay has proved to be very enjoyable.
