Frankie’s place is my new favourite stay in London.
First, the location is unbeatable. I love nearby Islington’s vibe, but it’s also nice to keep it at a comfortable distance. Hackney delivers just that, plus the immediate neighbourhood offers its own ecosystem for pubs, entertainment and conveniences.
Then there’s Frankie’s place itself. Modern building, super clean flat, comfy bed, plush towels, fully equipped kitchen, an afternoon sun-lit living room and a balcony overlooking the park across the street that’s to die for. No better place to sip morning coffee and to drink in the sun setting over London.
Check-in was free of any of the usual hassles of narrowing down the search for the right building, locating the entrance and gathering door keys. Frankie’s communications, directions and then meeting me in person to hand off the keys made for the smoothest of starts to my London stay.
An excellent base for enjoying a wonderful city. I look forward to repeat visits.
