I traveled by myself and stayed in London for 2 weeks. My requirements for accommodations were threefold: quiet, clean and safe. All three requirements were abundantly fulfilled. Note that this is not downtown London with all it's noise, crowds, tourists, shopping and hustle/bustle; it's in an East London neighborhood. It's 3 blocks from the Stepney Green tube station and the neighborhood has everything else that you would need very close by. The flat is very comfortable, clean, warmly decorated, and has all the amenities that one might need, including a heated bed (which I absolutely loved and I took an afternoon nap every day) and a fully operational and stocked kitchen (I only ate in a restaurant one time during my 2 week stay). The London Tower is a short 20 minute bike ride from the flat along the Regents Canal. I spent most of my trip biking along the various canals nearby, exploring the neighborhoods located on the canals, and unfortunately for my waistline, stopping at many of the local bakeries to sample breads and goodies (but boy was it worth it!!). The flat is located in a 4 story Victorian complex of about 100 units; the easiest way to find the flat is to find the building and enter into the main courtyard, all the units surround the courtyard, look for the little sign that has the appropriate apartment number and there you are. It's on the top floor so if you have health issues or carrying large suitcases note there is no elevator. I loved staying at the flat! If you are looking for something different than a hotel and you are the slightest bit adventurous check it out!
