King bedroom in bright modern flat
<b>The space</b><br />Our large modern apartment is a 1 minute from Old Street tube in one of London's most exciting areas. Just a few minutes walk to the historic city centre and Shoreditch - a restaurant and night life hotspot.<br /><br />The flat is on the third and fourth (top) floors of our residential block.  It is very large (1500 square ft), open and bright and we even have a foosball table that you are welcome to use! The kitchen extends from the living/dining area and has a gas hob, oven, dishwasher, washing machine/dryer and fridge/freezer. <br /><br />The bedroom is a large double room upstairs with king-size bed, ensuite bathroom and balcony.   We have not added a cleaning fee, but if you are staying beyond a week our cleaner comes once a week and will clean the room and wash towels and bed linen, which are provided. <br /><br />The apartment is surprisingly quiet at night despite being at the centre of the action as it faces away from the street.<br /><br />In the bedroom
Hi, my name is Rob,  I'm a New Zealander who loves living in London in the brilliant neighbourhood of Old Street.  Together with my flat mate Tess, who is Australian, we are making our third bedroom available on here for visitors.  

A bit of background on us.  My loves include travelling, music, food, nightlife, history and art (which just happen to be all the things that are great about London).  I'm an IT developer and am just releasing my iPhone app for reviewing dishes at restaurants so am definitely able to answer any questions you may have about London's food scene!  I also know a fair bit about London history.  Tess works as a project manager and is also a pretty keen traveller. She's as enamoured with London as I am but with probably a keener sense of the nightlife. 

We also both like meeting new people and can get vicarious pleasure out of others enjoying their discovery of everything London has to offer!  

Local tip: there is a lot happening in Shoreditch but I particularly recommend the cocktail bars - a look at the worlds50bestbars website shows The Gibson at number 6, Happiness Forgets at number 10 and Nightjar at number 19 (all within a couple of blocks) but there are a lot of brilliant options in the neighbourhood.
