Working near liverpool station, where to live?

I will be working nearby liverpool St station next Sept. I perfer to live alone, no sharing, anyone here have idea where to live?

I have considered leyton (which only 15mins away by tube), or aldgate (more expensive but can go to work on foot). Any good suggestion?

Platform 6?

Mile End.

Marylebone. Right in the centre, next to all the clubs/shops, and on the central line. Bit pricey, though.

A budget per week would be useful.

Shoerditch. Pricey compared to some areas but you really don't want to live in the East End.
£200 a week.

During my internship in S&T I stayed halfway between Mile End & Canary Wharf. Ideal since on some desks you need to be in at 6am, and the flat was only 6 mins from work.

Cost (incl. bills): £100/week.

If you can get a place in Spitalfields or around Commercial Road then it's a short walk, a bit more going on as well compared to Aldgate. It goes without saying that everything comes at a price.

Have you got a link to that place?

That sounds almost too good to be true.

Gumtree usually has these - it wasn't a whole flat obviously - just a single room (single bed) within a 4 bed flat. Given that it included amenities (washing machine, drier, microwave, stoves, oven, broadband internet, central heating etc.) I think it was a good deal given proximity to the workplace.

I'm paying alot more here in Amsterdam - but then I do have the whole flat here to myself.

Thanks

some of my friends did tell me about the East End. But I still hardly find a good 1 bedroom/studio flat for about £200 a week near Liverpool St Station. :frown:

Which website do you use? I alway look at Findaproperty and Rightmove
