Malachy and James are very nice hosts. Malachy answered quickly to my messages, explaining how to get to his apartment, giving me the great news that the strike of public transport was cancelled.
James waited for me and my son longer than we were supposed to.
The flat is in a nice part of Hackney, very well served by transports: there is a bus stop exactely in front of their door. If you want to have a very good cafè or eat something tasty and cheap you find a lovely cafè next to the house. Otherwise you need to eat somethng at home, there is a Tesco market at the corner.
The house is quite nice, extremely clean and cosy: we definitely felt at ease.
The night we had been at home I had a long and good talk with James.
I will definitely recommend it.
