This flat is on a quiet street mere blocks away from Spitalfields market and Brick Lane, so you are only a 5 minute walk away from lots of hip shops and restaurants. The flat is incredibly well furnished and stylishly decorated. From the clean tile floors to the art on the wall, the flat is exactly as the photos represented. The beds were all nice and comfortable. Both bathrooms are modern and clean. The kitchen has excellent appliances including a dishwasher. There is also a useful laundry machine in the hallway. The courtyard space is a true gem to find in a city environment.
It's about a 10-12 minute walk to the tube stop and bus stops that get you to any of the main sights in London in 15-30 minutes. The Spitalfields/Shoreditch neighborhood is fairly trendy and up-and-coming, so there's quite a bit of street art nearby, including a Banksy. It is not in the posh west end neighborhoods of Kensington or Mayfair, but it is very much a place where fun 20-40 year old people are living and hanging out. We enjoyed going out in the morning to get some bagels from the famous bagel shop, and walking the streets during the weekend markets. We spent a month there, and felt like we still missed out on some great restaurants and shops, as there were so many great places in the neighborhood.
