We had a lovely stay at Andy's flat. It is situated a bit away from the hustle and bustle of London--the 242 bus picks you up and drops you off right outside the building gates and takes you to Hackney Central station where you can easily get into Central London from there. Or you can walk to the Homerton Overground Station, which took us about 15-20 minutes. There is a rad adventure playground on the walk to Homerton that our 13 y.o. son enjoyed. We loved the neighborhood, and the various places to eat and shop along Chatsworth Rd, which are all just a short walk from the flat. We enjoyed Pivaz for breakfast, Cod & Co for fish and chips, and we had a lovely lunch at Venerdi.
Andy was very hospitable. He greeted us during our check-in and gave us the lay of the land, his flat has wonderful views of London! His rate is very favorable--if you enjoy staying away from the tourist area and rather stay in a proper London neighborhood, I highly recommend Andy's flat!
