Kris' place was lovely! It's in Tower Hill right between Tower Hill station and Aldgate/Aldgate east. The flat was clean and quiet except for during the early afternoon because it's across from a school so the children come out screaming and having fun. However this shouldn't deter you because you'll be in london so you wont be in the flat at 1 pm, you'll be out exploring! It's amazing how quiet the flat block was. The flat itself is a studio, but an incredibly spacious one. Kris was a great host, very communicative with a fast response rate. The man at the front desk, Terry is also impossibly lovely and incredibly helpful. He's great. We really enjoyed our time in the flat. It was a great base for London, especially since it was on the edge of both whitechapel and the city (so you get the urban edge and street art mixed with the high rise banking buildings). Loved it!
