Location is great for walking around East London and exploring Shoreditch, Brick Lane, etc. A great view as well. I would avoid booking in winter months until the updates he mentioned would be done to the apartment are completed sometime next year, as the insulation is very poor as we were quite a bit colder than expected for the week we were there. Even if you plan to be out and about almost the entire time, be aware that you won't be coming home to a warm and cozy place unless you plan to fill the gas card with quite a bit of your own money. Something we were unaware of when booking. Otherwise, Lucas flat will definitely put you into a great part of London, and an area that I will likely try to stay in again next time I'm there.
