This is a marvelous apartment. The location is wonderful -- just around the corner from South Parade street where there are a couple of great restaurants, and at the other end of South Parade are the shops on Banbury Road, including 3 excellent grocery stores. The bus into Oxford stops right at the corner of the street the apartment is on, so about a 1-minute walk from the door, and the bus back stops right across the Woodstock Road. This is just about the ideal location -- close enough to make getting into the city centre simple and quick, but just far enough out to be away from the tourist crowds. The apartment is comfortable, well-furnished, and spacious, with three bedrooms. The kitchen is well supplied for cooking or for reheating leftovers from the nearby restaurants, with crockery and cutlery for five and sufficient pots, pans, and utensils to facilitate cooking. The refrigerator is large, and the washer-dryer is a great plus since there's no launderette nearby. The best thing about the apartment, though, is Danny, the owner. He was exceptionally helpful from the time we made our reservation, answering various questions, and equally so throughout our stay. We had a couple of glitches and he responded immediately, even coming over one evening at 8:30. We travel a lot, and Danny was without question the most helpful host we have ever had. We hope to return to Oxford next year, and if we do we will certainly stay here again.
