Excellently situated in a quiet, diverse neighborhood near numerous bus lines and Underground stations, but also totally walkable to most of the big sights. Maria is very knowledgeable about London and gave me amazing suggestions not found in guidebooks that were tailored to my interests. (Like locating nearby Banksy street art and the flower market.) Close to Central London and Shoreditch. Maria is quite traveled, and I enjoyed chats with her. My room was just right for one person, clean and comfortable -- perfect for a single traveler.
