I visit London fairly often and always stayed close to Aldgate East station so I thought I would be fine with this place. It is small but has everything you need. However, I believe this apartment is in a project (government council housing.) I decided to check out and book a hotel at my first night as I kept getting harassed by not only the teenagers in the building with racists comments but also bothered by a couple people right outside of the building during just the 5 mins waiting for my Uber at 7:30pm the same night. I really appreciate Yolanda's hospitality and how clean the place is but I don't feel comfortable or safe at all. I have only stayed one night, spent more money on booking a hotel last minute. I would not recommend this place if you are a girl traveling solo :-/
