Excellent amenities: 10-mins walk from Old Street underground / Bus stop with regular service on the main road directly outside the building. Close to SoDa, Shoreditch and Spitalfields Market. Property is set back from the main road so is surprisingly quiet for such a central area.
Host made us feel really welcome; early check-in was no problem and she went the extra mile with nice touches like leaving us a fan (it was really hot / during the summer), washing our towels and returning etc.
The room was cleaned for our arrival and the use of the terrace was an added bonus.
The bathroom (not in the same room) was clean and we were welcome to use items like shampoo & shower gel.
Use of kitchen and all facilities was encouraged - no problems at all.
