I lived in Alejandra's apartment for 1 month and I loved it all.
In my opinion it is really difficult to find a place like this in London. Location is perfect, either you are one of those lame corporat sell-out working in the City (like me) and looking for a medium-term accomodation, or you just want to go for a stroll in Brick Lane/Shoreditch during your London weekend.
It takes literally 30 seconds from the doorstep to the tube station (Whitechapel: District, H&C and overground) and the flat comes with everything you need for setting-up a nice evening in with friends (fully equipped kitchen, fast wifi, nice tv, comfy couch...).
Bref, I really felt home. *****
(Plus, Alejandra is just awesome)
