Lyndy's place is fantastic!
First, the home itself: it's beautiful and spacious, very stylishly decorated with contemporary furniture (my wife fell in love with one particularly cool and comfortable wooden side chair). There is a large living area with huge sofa and a large dining table that was big enough for us to set up our laptops on one side and still set up for meals on the other half. Two nice bedrooms, both upstairs: the master in the rear, second room facing the street. My wife and I stayed there with our two teenage sons, and the second bedroom with two twin beds was perfect for them. (Our boys LOVED the entire home btw, and they can be tough critics.) One bathroom with tub/shower upstairs and a half bath downstairs near entry. Water nice and hot. Very well-equipped kitchen with nice appliances (the only thing we missed having -- and I mean the ONLY thing -- was a microwave, and that's just because I'm a lazy American when it comes to making my oatmeal in the morning. I survived). The washer/dryer in the upstairs bathroom was a godsend (and worked quite well). There is also a nice private courtyard in back with a table and chairs (unfortunately, the rain during our stay didn't allow us to take advantage of it, but it seemed like a great place to have breakfast, weather permitting).
Then there's the location: incredible! On a very quiet street in the Shoreditch area (we never heard any noise at night, and we were there for the entire bank holiday weekend)and very close to everywhere you would want to go. Very short walk to Brick Lane (we enjoyed the street market on Sunday) and lots of great restaurants and shopping all within walking distance. We particularly enjoyed the Vietnamese food on Kingsland (as, apparently, did the many locals who packed the bustling restaurants!). Overground and underground stations also about a 10-15 minute walk away, which made the rest of central London easily and quickly accessible.
Lyndy's communications were thoughtful and her recommendations spot-on. Can't say enough good things about her or her home. It helped make our London vacation perfect. Thanks again Lyndy!
