If you love staying in a great suburb/borough in the ‘beast of the east’ of London, Elodie’s place is where it’s at. Easily and quickly accessible by bus and train (from any airport or Liverpool station), there are local shops, bars and restaurants to explore without getting into the grime of the City of London.
Siebrand and I stayed there for our weekend of crate-digging at the Independent Label Market at Old Spitalfields. Just a short bus ride away from Shoreditch, Elodie’s place is clean, modern and has a nicely-appointed ensuite bathroom and balcony, too.
Unfortunately, we weren’t able to meet Elodie in person, but her communication and accuracy of describing the place is timely and friendly. It was a seamless process to book, arrive and stay at her place, which has a full kitchen and probably some housemates (who were private and discreet.)
If describing the location, host and apartment isn’t enough to convince you, the clincher is that there are three restaurants directly underneath the apartment. We went to Lardo (Italian) and were blown away by the quality, price and service there.
Merci beaucoup, Elodie! Siebrand et moi avons vraiment apprécié notre séjour à Londres et nous recommanderons ta chez toi à nos amis!
