Our first airbnb experience and it did not disappoint! Niamh is a wonderfully engaging host who was never more than just a text or call away if we needed her. Her home is exactly as described and had everything we needed during our week stay. Her cats, Millie and Bill, were a joy to have around. We loved chatting with Niamh during our check-in and check-out - we nearly missed our train to Paris because we enjoyed our conversation too much! The Leyton & Stratford area - all within walking distance - had everything one would need. There's a quaint English pub at the end of her street - we stumbled upon it during a stroll and had a wonderful time there as well! For local shopping, we recommend ASDA for groceries & personal hygiene products. There's a T K Maxx for clothing items too - all very affordable and located by the Leyton Underground station.
