Hvorfor folk elsker det

  • Residential vibes in the ultra-desirable De Beauvoir Town
  • Full kitchens and washing machines for longer stays
  • Walkable to the Regent's Canal and Dalston's nightlife but quiet at night

Hurtig oversigt: This is a serviced apartment with a steep damage deposit and zero staff—if you need a concierge or can't handle a lockbox, look elsewhere.

Anmeldt af @AhmedSaad3217277: I spent the weekend hunting for the best cool-down spots, and these four were absolute winners. The way they layer the acai at Projeto is mesmerizing, and the coffee mocktails at Cafe Rider are totally unique. You need to add these to your summer bucket list.

The hype

Spacious, stylish, and well-equipped apartments in a lovely neighborhood, but the administrative hoops (deposits, ID verification) are annoying.

Reality check

The 'check-in' is entirely digital and can be stressful if you don't receive the code email or have data issues upon arrival.

  • You prefer cooking your own breakfast in a full kitchen
  • You want to feel like a local in a leafy, upscale neighborhood
  • You're staying for 3+ nights and need laundry facilities

Renhed & Vedligeholdelse

8
  • Housekeeping: No daily service. You arrive to a clean flat, and that's it until you leave.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Generally spotless upon arrival; grout and tiles are well-maintained.
  • Maintenance: Good condition, though some guests report minor issues like loose handles or tricky locks.
  • Linens & towels: Fresh and hotel-standard white, but you only get one set per stay unless you pay extra.
  • Odors & scents: Neutral. No heavy chemical smells, but no luxury fragrance either.

Ofte stillede spørgsmål og skjulte tips

Alt hvad du gerne vil vide før du booker.

Is there a front desk?

No. This is a ghost hotel/serviced apartment. You will not see a human.

How do I get in?

Key retrieval via a lockbox or keypad. Codes are emailed 7 days prior, pending deposit payment.

Is it close to the Tube?

Not really. It's near the Overground (Haggerston), which connects to the Tube, but it's not a direct Central Line spot.

Can I leave my bags before check-in?

No. There is no luggage storage on-site. You'll need to use a service like Stasher or Nannybag nearby.

Is there parking?

No on-site parking. Street parking is permit-only or paid via app (RingGo), and very limited.

Is there a lift?

No. Stairs only.

Insidertips

  • ✨

    The 'De Beauvoir Deli' nearby is expensive but perfect for stocking your kitchen with treats.

  • ✨

    Walk along the Regent's Canal (5 mins away) to get to Broadway Market on Saturday mornings.

  • ✨

    The damage deposit can take up to 10 days to release after checkout—use a credit card, not debit.

5 ting du bør vide før du tager af sted

  • 💡The Wi-Fi is actually fast (50+ Mbps), unlike many hotels.

  • 💡The 'cleaning fee' is charged regardless of stay length, punishing one-nighters.

  • 💡You might be asked to take out your own trash before leaving.

  • 💡The heating is efficient but can dry out the air—crack a window.

  • 💡It operates under multiple names online (The Haggerston Flats, The Hackney Flats), which can be confusing.
