This apartment is open, spacious and light. There is lots of room to move around and enjoy working and dining at the table, relaxing on the lounge or sitting outside in the sun! The central heating means that it is always warm, and having a separate shower/bath is also wonderful. All the kitchen and laundry amenities are here too and easy to use.
I found access to the Hackney Downs train station which gets you to a major junction Liverpool St Station really simple, there's a great little local shop around the corner that supplies just about everything as well as a Marks and Spencers about 10 minutes walk away with lots of other specialty shops there too.
Damaris is also a great host who has helped me out with a few things while here. She's a really responsive, kind and gracious host. I've had a really pleasant stay here on first arriving in London and would highly recommend it as a great base within easy reach of the city and transport hubs.
