Beautiful, light, spacious (for central London, it's huge!) apartment in Commercial Road, just near Aldgate East Tube and the tail end of Brick Lane. That area is convenient (an easy walk to Tower Bridge and St Pauls and great Tube and train access) although it's a little bit run-down. Brick Lane and the east end are very trendy and boho and there are some great bars and cafes but it's not everyone's taste.
The apartment is in a new-build tower block with a security desk etc so very safe and convenient with a nice urban view. My only comment is check the terms and rules carefully as you'll be asked to pay a separate cleaning fee which the owner's assure me is to keep overall costs down. Despite this, it's great value and I had a brilliant time staying about 10 days and would do so again for sure.
