Offering proximity to Oxford without the bustling crowds, this ground floor apartment is a practical, convenient option. The home can fit up to five, but it'll be a tight squeeze – though one bedroom provides a king size bed, the other has a small double, while the living room sofa bed is only a single (and that's before everybody has to share one bathroom). The space is tastefully appointed, however, with a cosy living room and dining area (you'll need your own streaming service log-ins to work the TV) backed by a functional modern kitchen. Cowley Road and its surroundings are home to many popular cafes, shops and restaurants, while a fifteen minute drive north west brings you right into Oxford.
Home truths: *At full occupancy, one guest will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area. The small double bed in the home's second bedroom is also recommended for one guest, or else will be quite tight for space.
*There’s free parking for one car on the premises.
*This home's garden is shared with residents of the building, but is gated and usually empty.
*Starter toiletries are provided. However, you will want to stock up on other essentials such as coffee and tea, as these are not included.
*Self-check-in is available here. You'll either pick up the keys at a nearby property or use a lockbox on the premises. Your host will confirm instructions before your arrival.
*Your host uses a third-party platform called Truvi for ID verification and to manage damage deposits independently from Plum Guide. They'll send you a link to fill out when you book.
