Sophie was a wonderful and gracious host. She accommodated our request for a early afternoon check in time and gave wonderful recommendations for places to eat, drink and things to do in the area. We had a problem with the hot water heater (just a little switch that got toggled in the wrong direction) and she was so nice to come by the flat to help figure it out, all with a smile on her face.

We loved the location of the flat - it was a great experience to stay in a real neighborhood, with easy access into central and west London via bus, overground and tube. Lots of great coffee shops, grocery stores and restaurant options nearby.

One small note; through no fault of Sophie's (her flat is non-smoking), there was a bit of cigarette smoke that wafted up from the flat below or maybe from outside on a few evenings - it wasn't bothersome to us but maybe would be if you are sensitive to the smell.

Thank you Sophie, for such a great introduction to East London!! Would highly recommend it to anyone.
