One of the Central London tube station, quiet in the morning hours. Mess at night especially in weekends.
Due to underground railways there is bit pressure problem in the body. You can feel it if you are new.

Old Street Station is a generally clean tube station and quite busy during work commuting hours.

Very small and little underground station. The platform is literally 2 meters wide! Air in the station is very very dusty! Everywhere there is garbage and dirt! And one of the worst is that in none of London's underground stations there is mobile network coverage. In every other city that I have visited there is, but no London is special why to put mobile coverage in the subway...

Clean, the staff was very helpful when I needed to reach a place they direct me and showed very clearly.

A very nice station. Great location in an urban agglomeration. Unfortunately, the ongoing renovations slightly hinder the normal functioning, but the traffic organization is well thought out. I like this place because it is developing very modern.

Always busy when visiting the Moorfield Eye Hospital, however easy to navigate with friendly staff. Never had any issues when using.

THE party place to visit at the weekend so close to the vibrant scene of the pubs and clubs and restaurants of nearby Shoreditch, the erea is swamped with partygoers on Friday, Saturday and even Sunday seeking a really good night out , so different from the normal shopping street it is during the week, this is the enigma of old street, despite the prolonged road works at the roundabout and the inconvenience of entrances rerouted, the partygoers continue to come in their droves at the weekend as their place to visit, as a long time resident I am glad that this backwater at the edge of the city of London is being seen and it's shops used by the influx of visitors, despite it's proximity to the city, it is one of those nowhere places, a place to pass through, not visit, but thanks to the vibrant party scene it is now on the map as a real place to go to, about a mile down the road is moorgate where I have seen numbers of people departing from the station heading towards the clubs, pubs and restaurants sighted around Liverpool Street station and the Bishopsgate area, only a twenty minute walk from old street passing through Finsbury square and the broadgate complex and only the other side of Liverpool Street station, for the less party minded during the sober daylight times, old street offers a co-op, two Marks and Spencer, an Argos, two Sainsbury's and even two Tesco stores and Waitrose in nearby whitecross street, with a little exploration there is a wealth of shopping delights awaiting you if you are hunting for food to delight yourself or just wanting to visit a unique but underrated area almost but not quite unknown.

An impressive mixture of ultra modern buildings and old buildings. The underground station is being updated and it makes leaving the station or entering the station a wee bit frustrating I hope this situation is resolved soon as the signage is not great.
