Accommodation description from the host:
My accommodation is ideal for gays and lesbians. It is in a diverse, buzzing with life area in Central East Zone 1. Also known as 'hipster paradise' ... expect well dressed pretty boys with designer dogs and oatmeal latte in reusable cups.
If you drive :: my house is in a congestion charge area: plates of all incoming vehicles are scanned. The house has a daytime work-week concierge. Across the street is Shoreditch Police Station. It s one of the safest boroughs in London. I can not secure parking for you. The property and adjoining park is dotted with security cameras. No lewd conduct in the elevator either please.
check - in :: 6pm ... rarely earlier, occasionally later. All of the railway station have storage facilities. Some are 24/7
check - out :: 10am .. upon agreement also later if there are no same day check-in
Please arrange for the use of data while in UK. You might need to update me on flight/train arrival changes. Or get lost on the way. "I am by a big building" statement has a zero value in locating you. Similarly: "I ma in a local pub" as there are three around.
There is 24/7 transport: Northern line tube and buses. A leisurely walk to gay SoHo takes me about 30+minutes. Add some more time if a sofa is your best woking out tool. Save on travel expenses by staying central.
Nearby are popular gay bars/clubs like: The Bunker (in front of my house), Dalston Superstore (30min walk), The Glory (15min The Queen of Adelaide (30min walk)
Sights: Barbican Art Centre (10min walk), Sadler's Wells Dance Theatre (12min walk), The Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art, Museum Of Home, Museum of London, The Bank of England Museum, Wellcome Collection. Sir John Soane's Museum. St Paul's Cathedral is 20min walking distance away. Brick Lane with the best graffiti and Bangladeshi curry about 15min away.

Everything in my house is in working order. If it feels like you forcing it: you are probably doing it wrong way.

I love hosting.
