I can definitely recommend this place. The pics are true to facts. The apartment is big and bright and has lots of nice vintage features (the kitchen!) as well as original hard wood floors in the living area and a wonderful garden. It's situated in a great area, just a couple of minutes walk to London Fields, Hackney Central etc. Dalston Junction is even closer. It's Dalston, so there's lots to explore and there are many nice places in the area for both spending the day and for evenings/nights. Moreover, there's a bus stop with several busses to the city centre literally next door. Overground (Dalston Junction, Hackney Central, Hackney Downs) is easy to reach too, should you require more reliable transport during peak. Sophie was a wonderful host, quick with replies and easy to talk to. Thanks Sophie!
