A spacious corridor / hall, with room for cupboards or a desk, leads up to the two north facing double bedrooms. Both bedrooms have large ceiling to floor windows allowing lots of natural light and also have ceiling to floor original fitted wardrobes offering ample storage space. The larger of the two bedrooms has a door leading out onto the open balcony/fire escape. Background underfloor heating throughout is included within the service charge.

To the south of the Barbican lies Cheapside, One New Change shopping centre and St Paul's.
