Executive summary: a great stay! Stephen welcomed us personally and "explained" the apartment. A safe, residential neighborhood, park and river close by, a short bus ride to partly trad, partly hip Stoke Newington. Bus turned out frequently to be the best transport, e.g. to Camden or Bethnal Green. The three of us slept well in the bed and on the large sofa, the bathroom was clean and in good order (bit of muck along the tub grouting, but if it didn't bother my wife it can't be half bad). The nearby co-op fed us (good Scones & clotted cream!), so really everything went smoothly and we had a great time. A definite recommendation and we'd certainly come again.
