I was a bit anxious about moving out of my more central, Islington "comfort zone", but thanks to Jodi, I´ve discovered Hackney!
Don´t be misled by the location seemingly close to the road and the station. The windows (and WHAT windows) are facing London Fields park, and it couldn´t be quieter.
The flat is beautiful and there were so many nice little thoughtful details- this is the first airbnb where I got my own fluffy bathrobe and candles in the bathroom! Now, that´s luxury. The pillows were fluffy, too. I also appreciated the locally themed books on the nightstand, as well as the fact that there was plenty of drawer and wardrobe space.
And another example of Jodi being such a considerate host- no sooner had I mentioned that I´m getting a cold than a fresh, hot ginger-lemon-cayenne concotion materialized in front of me.
Now I´m only hoping that the room is not booked next time I´m going to Hackney:)
