Gerry's place is super comfy, very clean and cosy.
Tea, coffee, wifi, TV, DVD player, generous shower, there's even a well stocked bookshelf which includes some of his fascinating published works.
Gerry is such a great host he even came to meet us at the station to guide us back to his flat through those infamous little streets of Old London Town.
The flat is surprisingly quiet being only a couple of minutes walk from Liverpool Street station but this makes it convenient to travel anywhere in London quickly and safely by Tube or bus.
This is a fascinating part of town close to the City and the attractions of Spitalfields and Brick Lane and the surrounding friendly and quirky little cafés and bars up into Hackney and Bethnal Green.
Going South you can easily walk to Tower Bridge and enjoy the great Thames promenade as we did across the river all the way to the South Bank and beyond.
London just gets better and better!
Highly recommended.
