I was excited to explore East London, a different area of the City from my usual (I usually stay in Bloomsbury when I'm in London). Jane's place was perfectly situated: in a family-type neighborhood right across from beautiful Haggerston Park, a short walk from shops and coffee shops on Goldsmiths Row and Hackney Road. I'm an avid gardener so I appreciate parks and farms, and Hackney City Farm had the BEST cheese and fruit juice, plus a beautiful private garden. I would return.
