Great Location and fabulously large apt but with some flaws
Checkin , parking and the apt were terrific - very large space. walkable to Jericho and central Oxford - or bike-able. Near the canal walk and close to Port Meadow. Possibly one of the better locations in Oxford. The apartment is modern and well equipped but there were just a few negative points more for the owners to repair. I don't normally post negatives but I think this flat/apt is def worth it with a few minor tweaks There were lights that didn't work in the bathrooms just needed replacing. One of the bedrooms had a glass table that was broken on a corner - which is dangerous especially with kids. The kitchen cabinets could do with a bit if TLC as the bottoms of the doors were coming away. An instruction book or one pager at the apartment as to how everything works would have come in handy and less imposing than warning signs and directional signage through out the flat. Finally the apt seems somewhat spares as a lot of the wall hanging were missing. While I understand that there are personal items esp pictures/paintings that owners want to put away but the distinct lake of anything made it feel a bit characterless and perfunctory. To the it may also be handy to have more hangers in the closet and for the owners items to not just be shoved away messily there would be more space if this were done better All in all a big space, all modern mod cons and close to everything. Def worth the price tag. More to the point it had parking an Oxford unicorn for sure.

Family city break
Fantastic location, close to nice food shops, cafes and restaurants whilst also being easy to walk into centre of Oxford. Apartment spacious and clean. It is a bit tired, many bits of furniture a bit broken and in need of a refresh but comfortable enough and a good base for our stay.

Everything we needed in an excellent location
Clean, comfortable bed, all the appliances worked, soft towels. Plus the whole apartment is nicely decorated. We love the location of Jericho with its cafes and restaurants, under a mile from the center of Oxford. Plus the convenience of an underground parking garage with an assigned space. The numbering system of the spaces in the garage is a bit bizarre -- e.g. 16 is next to 65 and there are duplicates of some numbers (including ours) but it was so good to not worry about the car. Will book this again!
