This a clean, safe place in north London in the Hackney area. it is comfortable for short term and long term stays. the host is outstanding and commicative. it is a short walk to several bus stations and then to the underground. kitchen is well equipped and washing machine works nicely. overall a great stay. just one minor note, there are stairs to climb, so if you have mobility issues you have a little challenge. But i will stay again. lots around the neighborhood and easy to get to anywhere.
