Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
You've got the best of North London on your doorstep from this studio apartment. The cafes and bistro pubs lining Islington High Street and Regent's Canal are just a stroll away. Here for sightseeing? You're less than a ten-minute walk from Angel tube station for easy access into central London. It's worth noting that this apartment is open-plan, with the bedroom sectioned off with a curtain. The third guest will also sleep on a sofa bed, which won't suit everyone. But you can't go wrong here if you're looking for a smart pad with space to work.

Home truths
At full occupancy, one guest will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area. If you plan to use the sofa bed, request it with your host in advance.
While the large bed makes for a great night's sleep, it does feel a little big for the room. Space is limited, so we'd recommend travelling light.
Please note that renovation work may be happening above the flat during the day. Given the home's central location, you can also expect to hear some street noise.

Local guide
About Angel
Angel is a highly sought-after part of London, and for good reason. It's packed with trendy bars and restaurants lining Upper Street — the main road running from Angel through to Highbury and Islington — and an array of independent shops lining its side streets. A commuter's dream, Angel not only borders the north of London, but is also within walking distance of East London's Shoreditch, and borders King’s Cross...
