Location: I initially thought it would be a bit of a trek from Central London, but the Overground links proved otherwise. Station is a short walk from the apartment and then only a few mins into Liverpool Street. Getting to and from Gatwick was very easy and straightforward too. A Co-op literally a stone's throw from the apartment was very convenient as well!
Apartment: Much bigger than we expected. Very clean, spacious, airy, modern, and kitted out with everything you need (plus a pool table!). Amazing to get somewhere of that size and quality at that price within a short ride to Central London.
Host: Superb communication, extremely friendly, prompt responses, helpful tips, plus the welcome treats were a lovely touch. Top host, thank you Al :)
