The location is great, being a shortish walk into the city with plenty of bus options. The layout of the flat is good for the price but I had some issues with comms with owner - no 'welcome' explaining parking, when access details would be passed on so I had to chase that the day before. Access is easy and great not to worry about keys. In the flat the tower fan didn't work - luckily we were past the 32 degrees plus heat but it was still high 20's. Also limited crockery/glasses, no baking tray and no sink plug to do washing up - which I needed to do as limited glasses/plates. There were no instructions that I could find for the cooker/microwave/fan/tv. No instructions on what to do before leaving i.e. strip beds, bag and remove rubbish. I messaged owner Sunday morning but got no reply so stripped beds ( sofa bed double) and bagged rubbish and left it. There is a Londis close by for essentials, a Tesco Extra a bit further up Abingdon Rd towards the town. The pub opposite has good burgers and pizza and a large garden. Quite noisy on our first night when we needed the windows open and Oxford Uni Columbian Society was having a party outside till late.

We originally booked a one bedroom flat from the owners, but had to switch to a studio due to some emergency renovations being done. However, the studio turned out to be just fine and the owner adjusted the cost accordingly. The kitchenette came in handy and the location was great for walking into town.
