The apartment looked like in the picture. Aldgate station 15min walk. McDonald's and minimarkets are close too. It was spacious with a big window. The floor and around the beds was full with dust. The shower didn't have cold water, you could only use hot water, which was more than 65°C, we couldnt shower first night after a long trip. It was fixed next day afternoon, still no cold water, just "less hot", just 3min shower possible. I had troubles finding the place, the host wasn't really patient,and as we got there he didn't answer the phone, and we waited 15 min till someone came to give the keys (not the host), the address that I got after the booking was not the full address!! You can not find the place just with that (it doesn't have the number of the building or the apartment, just the floor!!)
We were told trafalgar square was 10min away with the bus, which was in fact more than 30 min.
We felt really unsafe in the neighbourhood, we didn't come home later than 21h. The surroundings were really dirty, full with garbage everywhere! Inside the building there was a really strong smell, real bad.
I would not stay here again, and I would not recommend it!
