I stayed with Debbie for 5 1/2 weeks and I had everything i needed. Debbie was a great host and was welcoming and kind and relaxed when i used the kitchen and lounge. There is plenty to explore in the vicinity and Dalston & Victoria Park via the canal path were particular favourites. I found my short morning walk along the canal to my bus on Kingsland Road a great way to start the day and always felt safe walking home on my own, even late at night. Great place to stay if you want to be near all that happens in the east end but not right in the middle of it.
