Aldgate Ace

Fans of vintage shopping, street art, and good food will love the location of this East London apartment. Perched above the bustling Brick Lane, it'll suit those keen to be in a vibrant, lively area. Three minutes on foot is Aldgate East Station – perfect for jetting across the city – while the neighbourhood is full of cool shops, restaurants, and bars to discover. The apartment is bright, if a bit simple, but it has everything you need to feel at home. There's a sofa bed for one guest (though it costs a fee to use), a sleek kitchen, and two comfortable bedrooms.

Home truths:
*Given the central location, street noise is to be expected.
*At full capacity, one guest will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living room (additional fee applies)
*Your host aims to meet all guests in person, but they're happy to organise self-check-in depending on your arrival time and situation. This will be agreed upon in advance.
*Essentials such as toiletries, tea, and coffee are provided. However, you'll need to bring your own detergent if you plan to do laundry.
*Netflix is available on the TV – just sign in with your own account to start watching.
