Good

The property was good.

Two things annoyed me: the location was not exactly as presented in booking, but a little further from the city center; and the correspondence with the host was bot friendly - to many things we are not allowed to do and stages we had to pass and to fill up in order to get there.

Not a bad stay. Worthing trying.

Nice location, very close to Waitrose which makes it convenient to shop. Comfy and nice neighbourhood. 15-20 mins walks from the rail station, ok to walk without luggage. 20-30 mins walk from town centre, westgate.

Everything fine, not much to complaints without overly picky. No pub nearby, only a Chinese takeaway at the corner. Need to order Deliveroo otherwise.

Very disappointed, not good value for money.

Beds were comfortable, great WiFi signal, location was ideal, it was a quiet cul de sac and parking for one car are the only positives I can give.

Lack of cleanliness, several cobwebs present, dirty and dusty skirting boards. Lounge flooring has several areas of deep scratches to the wooden flooring. Furniture isn’t pulled out for cleaning to take place behind, therefore dusty and debris. Only 2 mugs !! No plug in bathroom sink, water not draining away and black stuff coming up from pipe, (did send out a plumber who rectified the bathroom sink issue, still no plug though). Radiator not working in back bedroom. Stains present on sofa and cushions, needs complete redecoration throughout, very tired and tatty looking, did find the green paint very oppressive. Garden very unkempt, weeds everywhere, broken fencing, no garden furniture if one had wanted to sit in the sunshine. Advertising photos are not a true representation of the property and it is definitely not Oxfords Most Stylish House.

Superb

Really Nice Little house, near the bus stop and a big supermarket. Super clean and the key box is really useful and makes the arrival procedure quick and easy

The only negative point is that we had to give your credit card details by phone to a person you don’t know, it should be better to have a safe website to fill them rather than by phone, which is a bit strange, even more knowing that our bank details are already on the Booking app.

Nice accommodations for a family with convenient access to supermarket. Walkable to train.

A bit far from the center of town, but it is walkable. Very nice patio. Cute neighborhood and very close to Waitrose supermarket. Very spacious home and nice to have a washing machine.

It was clean but could use a deep cleaning. There is a lovely patio but no patio furniture to sit outside and enjoy. Also there is a nice canal along the back that you can't see from the patio. Other apartments had rod fences so you could enjoy the view, but ours was a wooden fence. No clothes dryer, so either hang clothes outside on the clothesline or around the house to dry.

A rubbish stay in a great location

The location of the property is great (just a 10 min walk into town) and having the parking out the front is very useful.

A few days before checking in I messaged the host to mention I did not have the key collection details and I was told that I would receive them the day before my arrival. This did not happen and on the way from the airport to the apartment I called as I still didn't have the details and was told that it was pending a security deposit and copy of my ID (not very easy to provide when driving down the m4)...Moreover, why didn't you tell me this 3 days earlier when I had emailed? When we arrived the apartment was very cold - I was told there was a Nest in the living room...but there is no Nest, there is an 1980s thermostat which appears not to be actually connected to the heating and another thermostat I found in the hallway eventually seemed to be the right one, even though there were no instructions, which isn't helpful. My wife then wanted to have a shower and has other people reported it seemed to be either cold or scalding hot. I messaged for some support and was asked to send a picture of the boiler and then someone from a call centre called me who said they had never visited the property, had no idea and generally were not very helpful. Eventually after taking the panel off the boiler I found a display and with some fettling managed to turn it down (again some instructions would have been useful). I would also note that the kitchen is very small and despite being told "feel free to use oil, salt, pepper etc" none of those things existed so I had to go and buy them. I have no problem providing these things myself, but dont tell me they are there if they are not. Also the description of "Most stylish house" is a nonsense - By no means did I choose this place for its style credentials, but it has an odd green wall (as you can see in the pics) that for some strange reason someone has decided to continue onto the ceiling. The main bed is small for a double and is not very comfortable.

Unpleasant experience

The accommodation staff did not allow us to get into the house because we forgot to pay £200 for the deposit. when we had already paid for the deposit and the staff send a 4 digit code to access to key in lockbox, they forgot to put the key in the lockbox, then we have to wait for 2 hours until the staff arrived at home and provide us a key to access to the accommodation.

Pleasant

The location was great

The property advertises a clean tidy garden, with a neat shed. The reality was a garden that was populated with weeds, a couple of plant pots over run with weeds. No garden furniture. A garden shed , door was left open and it had a empty packet of cigarettes. A washing line that wasn't installed properly and not maintained. Trees hanging over into garden, no maintenance of them. No bedding for sofa bed, no towels for 5th guest, not enough cups for number of people staying. Kitchen not well provided with kitchen equipment. Stains on sitting room ceiling from an obvious leak from bathroom. Keep safe was problematic and on one occasion, we had to enlist the help of a neighbour .

Great location but needs some TLC

Ten minute walk to city. Beds were comfortable and clean linen/towels.

Paintwork tired and stains on ceiling. The sofa bed was not comfortable and had hard metal rail which was painful if sitting on it. No outdoor furniture in garden. No toilet roll left so had to go and buy some as soon as we arrived.

Shabby and squashed but generally clean and close to main attractions.

Location was good. Neighbours friendly. Helped us get the key out of lockbox! Although very squashed in the rooms, beds were comfy and linen was clean. Lots to do and some really wonderful architecture and restaurants in the area.

We found the lockbox really difficult to get into; neighbour came out as he said it had happened to previous visitors and we eventually got in. Owner had stated on text that there was CCTV outside and noise monitors inside the home, but this is not the case. Home billed as 'most stylish' - sadly, this is stretching the truth. Sofa bed came apart and stayed apart, no fixings, so one daughter had to just sleep on it in its sofa state with a blanket as spare duvet/pillows had no linens on them - luckily only 5 of us. Kitchen poorly equipped: only 3 mugs! Garden is in an appalling state: strewn with weeds and old cigarette butts, which was so disappointing as we'd hoped to find seating to sit out in the sunshine. The general state of house was clean but shabby: partially painted in kitchen, with big dent in fridge; stains on lounge ceiling, scuff marks on all walls and what looked like food or make-up stains on bedroom carpets. For price, additional 'cleaning' costs and request of such a high security deposit (£200), we were expecting a much better equipped and upkept home.

Good location, reasonable walk to main areas of the town. Nice quiet road.

Good location ten minutes walk from railway station. Twenty minutes to town centre. Supermarket next door. Nice walks nearby along river or canal. Pleasant road, with parking for one car. Plenty of hot water, soap and towels. Easy to get to via west side of Oxford ring road.

Few areas need touching up with paint. Back yard was scruffy with weeds, and there was no seating available outside. The "double" bed which was advertised is NOT a double as most people would know it. This is a four foot bed, whereas a genuine double bed would be four foot six inches. Although the mattress was comfortable, a four foot bed is a bit of a squeeze for two adults. The kitchen could do with a couple of mixing bowls and some egg cups. Tablemats would be good for the glass dining table, but possibly these have been removed due to covid. The Waitrose delivery yard is quite noisy at night for the back bedroom.
