I was very sad when it was time for me to continue on my travels and move on from this absolute gem located in an oasis of calm and luxury in London’s Hackney. The room was exquisite, beautifully furnished all in keeping with the apartment’s overall stylish design. Alix was incredibly kind and helpful during my stay and is the perfect host. Her organisation and preparation is flawless from guidebooks to a stash of hot chocolate in the room’s very own cupboard of goodies. This is not just 5-star accommodation it's edging into 7-star territory.
