The accommodation and location were absolutely perfect for us. Helen is warm, fun and very interesting! As a host she was welcoming, attentive and informative. She made us feel at home and relaxed but was never intrusive. Our room was clean and quiet with an unusually comfortable double sofa bed and with easy access to the bathroom for our sole use. Quality bed linen, reading lamps, radio, hairdryer all provided and an iron was available if needed + we had access to tea and coffee making facilities in the kitchen A very short walk from buzzy Stoke Newington Church Street with a myriad of cafes and restaurants and an excellent supply of buses into central London and beyond. Close to Clissold Park and Hackney Wetlands, all within easy walking distance of Manor House underground station. Highly recommended - we loved being there!
