We have relocated from Sydney and just finished staying at Tam's place for our first two weeks in London. Tam was easy to communicate with and super friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. The place is easy to find, spacious (especially for London), clean, quiet and has a great view of Canary Wharf, the canal and park across the road from his balcony. There's a bus on your doorstop and the Underground/several DLR stops a short walk away. For groceries we went to Lidl, Tesco Express and there's even a Tesco Superstore in walking distance. We enjoyed the cafe near the park (roast their own beans), Angel of Bow pub (head there for a Sunday roast and board games) and walking along the canal to work out at Pure Gym. A real pleasure to stay there.
