About this property

This one's got a gym, sauna and a steam room!

Well presented, clean, and cozy, 1-double bedroom apartment, overlooking the new Olympic stadium and the Olympic​ village, in zone 2. It comes with free use of the gym, sauna, and steam room facilities. It sleeps up to 3 people, but is ideal for 1 and/or 2.

This is very clean and tidy, 1 double bedroom flat, within transport zone 2. The apartment is overlooking the Bow river canal and the new Olympic stadium in East London, with excellent travel links. All rooms are very spacious and with modern furniture with plenty of storage space. The kitchen is smaller than the rest of the rooms but very practical and fully equipped. All towels and linen are also provided, together with the welcome pack of tea, coffee, milk, and breakfast cereal for the duration of your stay. Overall, this is an ideal East London base for your vacation and/or work in the city. You will have sole use of the flat during your stay.

£100 per night is based on 2 people staying per night. Furthermore, another sofa bed is situated in the living room, for 3rd person for an extra £30 per night.
The price per night is as follows:
Up to 2 People - £100
Up to 3 People - £130

PLEASE NOTE:
* £90CLEANING FEE APPLICABLE TO EVERY BOOKING!
* DURING THE CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR'S PERIOD, (20/12-10/01), THE PRICE PER NIGHT STARTS AT £120, BASED ON 2 PEOPLE SHARING.

The apartment is located in a very safe, gated block of flats on the 2nd floor, with the added luxury of the gym, steam room, and sauna facilities on the ground floor for no extra cost. The gym complex is open daily from 6 AM-11 PM. The concierge is present every weekday from 8 AM-4 PM, and on Saturdays from 8 AM-12 AM.

The apartment is at the back of the building and is very quiet. The only thing that might wake you up in the morning is the sound of ducks from the nearby canal; it is rather therapeutic though. Neighbors are mostly professional couples in their mid-'30s, very quiet, and have no children. There are few restaurants and/or bars close to the building; Dane’s Yard Bar and Restaurant is highly recommended and only a few minutes away.

Free use of gym and steam and sauna facilities is the best bit this place has to offer. It is open daily, from 6 AM until 11 PM and I strongly advise you to use it, - ok, perhaps not the 'torture chambers', sorry, the gym, but definitely the steam room and the sauna. - It gets busier only in the evening, from 7 PM.

The Central House is located on the north side of the High Street. It is a convenient and well connected, accessible location if attending exhibitions or sporting events at Excel and O2 Arena, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park/Stadium, and Victoria Park (Festivals: Field Day, Lovebox, As One In the Park); or if you are working locally, (3 Mills Studios, Stratford, Greenwich, Canary Wharf, Docklands & the City).

The Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park offers a fantastic array of sports activities and other attractions. You could swim in the Aquatic Centre, or visit ArcelorMittal Orbit; standing 114.5m tall, with two observation floors, at 76m and 80m, the ArcelorMittal Orbit provides visitors with stunning views over the Park and across London’s famous skyline. It is both a work of art and a thrilling experience. For full details about the Olympic Park, please visit the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park website.

Central London is 30 to 40 minutes away, depending on traffic. This is transport zone 2 and travel links are excellent; there are 4 Underground and/or Docklands Light Railway stations, all within 10 to 12 minutes on foot. Your closest station is Pudding Mill Lane, (DLR), and it is 3 minutes away. Bow Road, (DLR), is 6 to 7 minutes away; Bow Church, (Tube) is 8 to 9 minutes away and Bromley-By-Bow, (Tube), is about 10 to 12 minutes away. Please see the pictures for directions.

Stratford International train & bus/coach station is approximately 15 minutes walk away, which provides direct access to Central, Jubilee, DLR, London Overground, and other regional trains services, as well as coaches to Stansted Airport, which depart every 15 minutes.

Among others, bus number 25 operates very frequently and this is a 24-hour service to central London and Oxford Street. On the other hand, if you are a sporty type and prefer cycling, there are 2 Barclay's Cycle Hire docking stations within a 5 minutes walk from my apartment.

Due to the London Olympic Games 2012, the entire Stratford area was vastly regenerated and developed, becoming the main retail hub for East London. Westfield Shopping Centre in Stratford is Europe’s largest urban shopping and leisure center, with more than 250 shops and 70 places to dine. A vast, bustling, covered shopping mall with numerous shops, stocking designer clothes for every pocket as well as high-end, luxury brand stores; an Apple store, a diverse range of food options, a 17-screen multiplex cinema, and a 24hr Casino.

Heading west from Stratford, whether it's towards the trendy Shoreditch for nightlife, bohemian Hackney, London Fields & Victoria Park, or the business districts within The City & Docklands, all are readily accessible via the frequent local bus services.

There are 2 local Tesco shops: Tesco Superstore and Tesco Express, both within 8 to 10 minutes on foot.

I am a 40-year-old photographer and usually, I live here on my own. When rented, my girlfriend (yes I know, sorry ladies, :), gets to have me and sometimes she's very happy about that and sometimes not so much...

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions, queries, or are simply curious.

I have had a very unpleasant experience recently, whereby, guests left the premises without closing the door behind. My flat was left open for 5 hours and I have had to change all the locks.

Rachel B.

East London stay
We were here for 6 nights. Prior to our visit, Dejan was very responsive and helpful. Apartment is spotless, modern and everything is as shown in the pictures. There's a bus stop in front of the building and overground station few minutes away. It was perfect for our short vacation and we'd recommend this to all visitors. Oh, and free sauna and steam room was a great bonus.

The host with the most
Dejan is a great host, very quick to answer all your questions and very easy to talk to. The flat itself is clean, cosy, quiet and immaculately presented. We stayed at Dejan’s for full 3 weeks and felt at home from day one. Travel connections are plenty and although there are no bars or restaurants in the close proximity, Stratford is only one stop away, where there are many. Truly wonderful experience.

Awesome place
Dejan's place was awesome! Very close to public transportation and a massive Westfield shopping centre, (there's a bus stop in front of the building and an overground line, around the corner. The flat is extremely clean, spacious, and quiet. Dejan was quick to answer all our questions and very accommodating indeed. I would definitely recommend his flat.

Helpful
On arrival to the property Dejan the host was,very helpful and couldn't do enough for me. Give me a very detailed explanation about the property and surrounding area. The property is clean and with everything I needed to make my stay comfortable. Dejan was always at the other end of the phone if I needed any thing. Very close to Westfield and other shops. Westfield hosting a variety of eateries and great for transport links. When ever I'm back in that area Dejan will be my first port of call.

Dejan was incredibly nice, flexible, and accommodating during my stay. The flat is exactly as described; conveniently located, clean, and has most things you'd need for a short stay in London.
