We enjoyed our stay at David's Shoreditch apartment. The apartment is nicely situated close to the action and the Tube, and it's a comfortable place to call home while you're in London. It is more on the minimalist side in terms of furniture, which was fine, but keep in mind that the couch pictured is the only soft place to sit. Also, the bed, while comfortable, has a thinner mattress than some might expect when they imagine a five-star hotel. We slept perfectly well, nonetheless. David did an excellent job communicating everything with us throughout our stay. All in all, it's a much better value (and as comfortable) for the money than the well-known hotel in the area where we stayed for our last night.

A few things to note: It's a bit of a jaunt from his coffee house where we picked up the keys and the apartment -- you might consider spending the money to take a taxi if you're carrying a fair amount of luggage. Another tip -- make sure to write down the information to disarm the alarm once inside the apartment. We were not prepared (which was my fault). If the refrigerator is not on when you arrive, try the switches above the counter-top -- a housekeeper had apparently flipped it accidentally prior to our arrival.
