From the get-go, Gypsy really made an effort to make me comfy in this apartment, and she took lots of time to get me acquainted with everything. The place was spotless, big and bright, and it had everything I needed in the kitchen and bath. The washing machine was really handy, and the heated drying rack for laundry was AWESOME. I also loved the Sonos system that piped my music/podcasts into every room. That, along with Gypsy's hospitality, really made me feel at home. But the BIGGEST perk was being in the heart of Clerkenwell and having Leather Lane right next door. The neighborhood feel and the countless choices for food were fantastic. I had a ball just sampling all the great coffee shops on Leather Lane alone! A Boots and Sainsbury were steps away ... Farrington, Barbican and Chancery Lane Stations close by ... and Exmouth Market within a 5 minute walk. I had a great experience here!
