The apartment itself is very nice, seems newly renovated. The staircase leading to it is horrible though, with an old, smelly carpet and a broken window.
The apartment is easily reachable by public transport, the DLR station is only 5 minutes away.
The area is not nice, I would not be comfortable walking around in the dark there alone.
Due to traffic and train lines, the noise is high, we needed to close the windows for the night in order ti being able to sleep.
