I had a great time stay at Melanie’s , she basically had everything planned out for us : restaurants, a book a places to visit and directions on how to get anything you want delivered. The apartment overlooks a bay around it is 2 station to get around the DLR and the Victoria line both are 7 minute walk. You can get a good cup of coffee within walking steps of the place on the bay. Best part is my spoiled niece found place’s every night close by to shop and eat every night. You could also rent bikes and go around the bay. The place is perfect. close to the city but far enough to relax.
