Yan's apartment offered a very great home-away-from home feel right away. With the National rail line you are on Old Street in 20mins and a 10min walk to Shoreditch. The projector in the parlor is to die for and offers great enjoyment. There is great and cheap Turkish food in the neighbourhood and Sainsburys nearby. Would recommend highly for anyone that wants to experience London and feel right at home (I was a business traveller).
