Amaia was a fantastic host; I felt like I was staying with an old friend! The room felt very private and the bed was comfortable. The flat is in an area that is rapidly changing due to gentrification. It is very convenient to several busses and to the Bethnal Green tube station. I felt safe and comfortable walking around on my own at night and it was an easy walk to the flower market and Broadway market. I only wish I'd had more time to explore the neighborhood and visit with Amaia but hopefully I'll be back!
