Cute in pictures but everything just felt "okay".
The apartment is located on the 7th floor of a tall, public housing-style building in a public housing neighborhood -- very residential and felt completely safe. Claire has done a wonderful job making her apartment feel special and setting up guests for a smooth checkin. It is a reasonably quick walk down to the busy streets of Shoreditch and felt very safe in the neighborhood. Beautiful views of the skyline and lots of sun from the flat.
I stayed in mid-May and had no need for AC or heat.
Unique apartment with the artwork and pet turtle but wish the shower was working properly and in my opinion, the flat could use a deep cleaning. She provides towels, hangars and the essentials. It just didn't have that clean and crisp feeling that I was expecting from the high quality pictures.
Both Claire and Rita were very responsive with messages and were able to respond to questions - which is always very nice when arriving to a new place. The checkin process could be improved (a bit of a treasure hunt) but ultimately it seems to work.
