4k tvhigh-end supermarket
I loved the 4K TV in my Aldgate Studio, it even came with a soundbar. The high-end supermarket across the road has amazing fresh fruit and drinks. This place has everything you need and more!
The inter-room soundproofing could be better, I could hear a bit too much from the connecting room.

charmed stay
4k televisionhdmi availabilitynearby supermarketwalking distance
i appreciated the 4k television with hdmi availability. a soundbar and subwoofer. there was also a high-end supermarket across the road , selling great bread, drinks, and fresh produce. it was convenient with plenty of places to eat within a five-minute walk. aldgate east tube station is less than ten minutes away on foot.
the air conditioning blew very cold air continuously . there was also an unpleasant odor in the room from time to time. i believe it came from the air conditioning system.
