We've stayed in Alex's place for a month and it was lovely. Our studio was very clean and had all the appliances that we needed. While Shoreditch can be rather lively, our second floor studio in the rear was very quiet and we always got a good night's sleep.
The host was excellent and very pleasant when it came to communication and always resolved any queries we had promptly - here I would also like to give a special shoutout to Janos the handyman, who is as capable as he is a delight.
The only drawback I would mention is that the place is smaller than the pictures indicate. However, it was enough for us, a couple, for a month.
