Our hosts were very helpful and quick to respond when I had a few questions. The unit was what we needed, comfortable and space for everyone to spread out. The location was wonderful, we were out walking every day to see what we were interested in, didn’t need an Uber once, And if a bus was needed, the stations were very close.

Fantastatically located property. Starting to look a little tired perhaps and beds not particularly comfortable but for a short stay am sure most would be very content.

The property was beautiful but there were no sheets for the sofa bed so the 5th person just had to sleep with a duvet without a sheet and blankets from the sofa

Great central location for visiting Oxford. A parking space included is a huge bonus. Very clean apartment with lots of amenities. Would definitely recommend to others. Only two things we would change, the mattresses were not comfortable on either bed and we needed a baby cot which the property was not able to provide.

Great location for 1 night stay to pick up son at Oxford

This would be a 5-star review if the mattresses were better. They are remarkably uncomfortable. That said, it's a good apartment in a great location, and check in was easy. We needed better instructions on how to work the stove as well.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
This property is in a great location easily accessible to many areas in Oxford! Well equipped kitchen that we didn’t use for our short stay. Good tv, seating area, and table for cards. It doesn’t have AC and there are no fans, the front window doesn’t stay open to help cool the interior. The bedroom carpet smelled bad and all carpet upstairs is aged and stained. The bathroom upstairs was clean, but had a hazy mirror with limited views. The linens and towels were nice. The supply of toilet paper for three nights with four people was short.

Brilliant arrival

These were the best arrival instructions I've received. Very thorough. Nice sitting area in the open "great room" and a table comfortable for 4 easily. Speedy, reliable wifi. Short walk to Westgate center with its many trendy rooftop restaurants. Short walk the other way to The Head of the River, spectacular pub with excellent service and an outdoor patio with views of the active river traffic. The flat is in a good location, as described, and I'd be willing to return but at age 75 I fing myself resisting places with stairs.

Not as described

Great location but that is where the positives stop. The property smells damp and musty. The downstairs window won’t open to allow fresh air in. The entrance is untidy and dingy. The entry hall was littered with laundry bags and were a trip hazard. The beds were uncomfortable, very thin mattresses. The beds were described as king size but at best were a double, so we had two poor night’s sleep. The bathroom had peeling caulking, a bodied shower connection, the mirror is misted and not clear. The downstairs toilet is damp with plaster coming away and the skirting is loose. The curtain rail in the lounge has missing hooks. The TV reception is poor and the TV pixelated frequently.

Easy access to downtown

Nicest thing about this flat its location within easy walking distance to downtown, Oxford University and shopping. The entrance to the flat is on the ground floor with stairs up to the bedrooms. Getting into the flat was a little complicated but the host provided good directions. The building the flat is located in is at the corner of two busy roads but there was not a lot of noise at night thankfully. The outside of the building was not much to look at and there was junk in the hallway from other flats. Inside the flat is as described in the pictures. Furnishings were nice and everything worked well. The beds were the size described but not very comfortable.
