My host was very good with communication. We didn't meet in person but her friend greeted me and showed me round. The flat was as pictured and as I expected. Very modern situated in a well maintained inner city council block. My host supplied new bedding and towels and everything was clean. I was hardly there as working so much but I slept well there and felt very safe. The travel links are great in this area. A useful bus link right outside the estate. I didn't have the chance to visit any local shops but Westfield is just 10 minutes bus ride or 20-30 minute walk through the Olympic park lands so you are spoilt for choice if you have time to spend. I hope to return as very handy for my work.
