A good stay starts with knowing what you are booking. This guide covers what to expect from central East London streets and from a private room in a shared apartment with LDN Stays, so you can decide whether it suits your trip before you arrive.
The neighbourhood
Central East London is lively. LDN Stays apartments are in central locations, some on main roads, so expect traffic and street sounds. That location is what puts markets, food and transport within easy reach.
Like any busy city area, it pays to plan sensibly: know your route home, keep your belongings close in crowded places, and check your journey before late-night travel.
The buildings
Access to many of the rooms is by stairs only. If you have heavy luggage or find stairs difficult, check the access details in the listing for the room you are considering.
The room and shared spaces
LDN Stays offers private rooms within shared apartments. Your room is your own. Many rooms have locks and the kitchen has designated fridge and cupboard space, though each listing confirms what applies to that room.
Bathroom arrangements vary by room. Some rooms have a private ensuite or private bathroom; others share bathrooms with other guests. Each listing says which.
Shared bathrooms and common areas are cleaned every day. Rooms themselves are cleaned once per stay, not daily.
Because the apartment is shared, you may hear other guests. If you are very sensitive to noise, read each listing and its reviews carefully before booking.
The LDN stays way
When you book, LDN Stays sends you a message explaining how the apartment works: if the accommodation is shared or private, that your room is always private, and how cleaning works. Our kitchens also have a recommendation board with suggestions from the hosts and past guests, you can definitely spend a lot of time researching the board and find some gems.
Our rooms suit respectful, budget-conscious travellers who spend their days out exploring, such as friends, couples and solo visitors. They are not set up for families with children, parties, guests who cannot manage stairs, or anyone looking for a luxury stay.
If that sounds like your trip, we are here for you.
We look forward to hosting you in London!
