Great little place in a great part of London. Laura & Masud made us feel very welcome to their home, treating us to some food basics which is one of those little things that makes a huge difference after a day of travel. The flat might not be big, but it's got plenty of character and it's a perfect spot for exploring Hackney and the rest of London. If you're new to the city, don't be put off by the seeming lack of transport, ie no tube / overground, as there's plenty of buses on your doorstep, and just a 5-10 minute walk to a train taking you to Liverpool street in 10 minutes or so.
