Shannon's place was comfortable, clean, and in a good neighborhood. We did not have the pleasure of meeting Shannon since she was away, but her roommates were extremely nice and helpful. The room is spacious and the bed is comfortable. Although there is only one bathroom to share in the apartment, there is a sink and mirror in the bedroom, which was extremely convenient when you want to just brush your teeth or wash your hands.

Also there is a very large portable clothes hanger with shelves that was wonderful to have to put out all of our stuff. Shannon also made sure that we could use the drawers in the room for our clothes.

She left detailed instructions on how to use the heater, washing machine, and wifi. You can only use the wifi in the living room, which is on the opposite side of the apartment, so be aware of this. It was not an issue for us at all because we had data. The apartment itself is large and clean with a full kitchen and a living room.

The location was in a good neighborhood. It is about a 20 min walk to King's Cross/St.Pancras and a 8 min walk to Highbury and Islington underground metro station, which is one station over from King's Cross. We walked as well as took the metro. Both are convenient, so it just depends on what you prefer and where you need to go.

Overall we had a wonderful stay with Shannon and would highly recommend her place for your trip.
