Very clean and comfortable. Only very slight gripe is that the sofa bed didn’t feel the most stable…..having said that my son slept well on it. Excellent value for location; about 20 mins drive walk to town and 30mins to the train station.

Lovely clean room and well equipped. Comfy bed. It took me a while to work out how to use the keypad for the door code but then it was all fine. The kitchenette tap in my room was very wobbly but hopefully the owner will fix it on seeing this.

Adequate for one night.

Room clean and modern. Trouble checking in as code wouldn’t work and couldn’t get hold of anyone, alarm going as too many tries, after about 20 mins we eventually got in.

Room adequate, no orange, cereal or bread as in pics. Just sachets of milk, coffee and tea. Fridge very smelly I wouldn’t want to put food in there. First pic from website, second what you actually get.

Very comfortable little apartment--only two small issues. One, my apartment overlooked the Abington Road, which was a bit noisy. Two, the step up into the shower and toilet made me a bit nervous about slipping/tripping, or twisting my body. Not recommended for persons with limited agility.

Check in ok with code on door, but needed communication earlier than a couple of hours before check in. Room ok. Bed comfy. Bathroom not well cleaned, shaved hair from previous guest over sink and floor. Mould on shower head and not all holes in shower head working. Terrible pressure in shower. Like warm water in shower but scalding out of all other taps. Microwave filthy. Plates and utensils not clean. Carpet stained. Wouldn’t stay again.

Not a great experience

Check in was very clear and straightforward with key coded locks. Unfortunately when I went to leave and go into town, the door to the apartment would not re-lock itself and as I had to meet my son at the station, I had to leave all of my belongings unsecured. The host did quickly respond to my e-mail about this but he’s loutish offered didn’t work.

Fortunately nothing was stolen but it meant the door was unlocked all night (we put a table in front of it for at least some security).

The kitchen offers plenty of tea and coffee plus delicious biscuits, so that was appreciated, although the small cup containing what I assumed was white sugar, was in fact salt! (Sachets of salt were provided separately but no sugar).

Our plan was for my son to sleep on the sofa bed, and we found the duvet and pillow in the main bedroom shelving, but there was no sheet or duvet cover provided, so he was forced to sleep directly on a rather grotty mattress that had mould patches and stains on it as per the photos.

Overall, a convenient location and the flat is well presented, but the absence of basic security and bedding did leave me feeling dissatisfied with the overall package.

Room with kitchenette on Abingdon Rd

Lovely comfy bed and kitchenette. Very convenient location on bus route into the city from the Redbridge park & ride. Downside is that the property is not staffed therefore you can't leave your bags anywhere pre check in or after check out. Also the electricity switch for our shower needed to be checked. Not secure and needed fiddling with to get the shower to work at all. Not sure how safe it is.

Convenient, tidy little mini-suite type place :)

Very easy to access, 5-10mins walk from centre of Oxford. 5 mins to a Tesco Express which was very useful. Really tidy, great mini-kitchen, and a really tidy shower room/toilet - no bath though. Just wish I'd stayed there the other nights I was in Oxford. Great choice here.

Perfectly adequate

I stayed at Your Oxford Stay for two nights for a work trip. It's conveniently located near the city centre, and I felt the property was safe and secure. The accommodation was perfectly adequate for my needs - the room was clean and tidy and the bathroom especially was spotless. The room was showing signs of wear and tear though - some marks on the carpet, a broken window pane, chipped kitchen units - and the sofa was incredibly uncomfortable to sit on. However, the bed was comfortable, there was great storage space and the little kitchenette was fairly well stocked with utensils and crockery. The keyless entry system worked well.

The only flaw was I arrived at 3 for check in and the staff were behind me on the stairs to clean my room. Was able to drop my bags and take myself for a walk so i really didn’t mind. Room was large and had all the amenities you need. Pub across the street was convenient and you could walk into town very easily.

Convenient place, the owner responsive but not helpful at all. The place not thoroughly cleaned and some odor (not strong but you feel it when you from a walk outside). Cleaning is horrible and arrangements weren't communicated to me earlier, so not recommended for long stays. Cups had stains, the microwave had load of stains, and the shower rode was very dirty. Can't be a repeat customer.

Very disappointed

I arrived at the place, not realuzingvthat I needed a code to get access to my room. My phone had run out of power, and I had to recharge it before I could find the e-mail with the code within minutes of gaining access to my room on the top floor, the room below mine was occupied by a group of noisy men, singing, playing music and shouting at each other until 02.00. I had to get up at 06.00 again, so was tired and exhausted all day. There were no instructions on how to operate the electric panel radiator and the shower tray along the edge was filthy. Had it not been raining and dark outside, I would have left and booked into different accommodation.

Very good, but could do better.

Wonderful!

This was a great find! There are two rooms plus a bathroom. It was stocked with snacks and breakfast items when we arrived. There was a fan in the bedroom, which we appreciated. Three was free WiFi. It was a convenient walk to center of Oxford. We were given access instructions prior to arrival by contacting them from instructions on confirmation email. We stayed two nights and our room was serviced between them, which was nice. If you need a front desk, this wouldn't be for you. But I'd stay here again in a heartbeat!

Great stay for a self-sufficient traveller

I booked last minute and immediately called the owner for instructions (as advised by hotels.com), but if booking with more notice, you can expect instructions without calling I believe. The instructions came through by text within 5 minutes.

A self-sufficient room with codes to enter the main door and the room. Spacious room (301), which was very well put together. Great en-suite. The shower was acceptable, but would prefer more pressure. The bed was very comfortable and the room also had the nice of a couple of small bottles of orange juice, milk and some cereals for breakfast.

I'd definitely recommend if you're happy without a reception, welcome from staff etc.

無人ホテルなので、不安でしたが、チェックイン時、入口ブザーで呼び出してすぐに対応してもらえたので良かったです。多分、携帯にアクセスコードの連絡があることになっていたのかもしれませんが、イギリスに到着してすぐに海外携帯にしていなかったこともあり、入口のインターホンでの会話で入口、部屋のナンバーキーのコードを聞いて入館しました。入口のナンバーの入力で手間取りましたが何とか入ることができました。
部屋は、広く、とても快適でした。ただ、エアコンが無いので夏は厳しいかもしれません。あまりないようですが、最終日には25℃をこえる日があったため、部屋は寝苦しかったです。ただ、それ以外は、快適な暖房があり、バスルームでも冷っとすることもなく良かったです。
ロケーションもセンターから歩いて15分程度でとても近いです。また、WestGateのショッピングセンターへも同じくらいで問題ありません。
すぐ前に、パブがあり、ビール、ピザやハンバーガーが楽しめます。どちらも十分、おいしかったです。地元民が多数利用していました。
最後に、部屋のクリーニングやタオルの交換についての情報が全くないので、その辺、きちんと表示してほしいところです。
