Rinaldo was a great host: communicative, friendly, helpful. He has a nice place that provided us a great getaway. The place is about a 15-20 minute walk to Miles End, where there are nice restaurants and coffee shops. If you're into walking, there's a great canal walk that you can follow to Miles End Park, which eventually hooks up with Victoria Park. In another direction about 50 minutes you can walk to Spitalfields Market (for cool shopping and hanging out) and Brick Lane (for great curries). Obviously with Uber, you're minutes away from those places. Overall, really nice stay and a great host.
