Ella and John's place was the perfect way to begin our trip to England. Their great warmth and hospitality was so appreciated by me and my friend! The ground floor apartment was spacious, spotless, and very comfortable. It was a delight to sit in their beautiful garden every morning, drinking wonderful coffee and eating John's delicious cake. They were both really interesting to talk to about a variety of subjects, and had great tips for things to see, restaurants to try, getting around London, etc; John and Ella were helpful in every way, from planning beforehand to booking a taxi for us at the end of our trip. The East End is also a fascinating neighborhood, with a rich history, unlike strictly tourist areas. Ella and John's Airbnb is now our gold standard!
