I mean for this to be the most glowing review possible. From the moment I walked in, I saw that the apartment was lovingly cared for. My room was bright, with a gorgeous fragrance, high quality bed linen, lovely plants and everything was immaculate. I even had my own iron and ironing board in the shared house which was very considerate. You can always tell if a bathroom and toilet is frequently cleaned and these most definitely were. The location was brilliant. The apartment is a 1 minute walk to the Underground and Overground stations, and a mere 4 minutes by light rail into London’s square mile. My host Angel was wonderful to talk to, especially about his love of food and gardening, and was extremely helpful with tips about Shadwell and East London area. If all AirBnb hosts were like Angel, there would be no need for hotels, ever.
