This flat was better than expected. Very spacious, very comfortable and very well decorated and maintained. We spent 5 nights with our 2 children ages 7 & 5 as well as our parents...6 guests total and we were extremely comfortable. Entering on our own was a breeze with the very detailed instructions including photos via PDF that were emailed to us. There were even necessities in the kitchen already including olive oil, butter, water, spices, etc... Yes, the Overground train runs right behind the house, but the windows are double pained and the sound is minimal. The most noise came from other residents slamming the front door of the building which is right at the front door to the flat, but the kids were so exhausted every night, they slept right thru it. We LOVED staying in Shoreditch because of all the night life as well as DELICIOUS restaurants and awesome bars. A small grocery store is just a 5 minute walk as well. We HIGHLY recommend this flat to anyone traveling to London.
