Inside the apartment

Guests describe Oxford Terrace as bright, spacious and airy. The open-plan living and dining room has a comfortable sofa, a 50-inch smart TV and a dining table that doubles as a second desk. The modern kitchen, with its Siemens induction hob and LG fridge, has an oven, microwave, dishwasher and a coffee machine with pods, plus all the cookware and crockery you need, and its large windows look out over the city. A washing machine, tumble dryer and iron in the flat make longer stays easy.

Bedrooms and bathroom

Bedroom 1: a king-size bed and a desk for working.

Bedroom 2: a double bed.

Living room: the sofa opens into a bed for two more.

Both bedrooms are good-sized, and the bedding gets special praise from guests: crisp white linen and plenty of towels. The bathroom has a large bath for a long soak after a day on your feet.

Worth knowing

Oxford Street is lively, with bars and restaurants along it, so you may hear some noise in the evenings. That's the trade-off for having dinner and a drink a few doors away. There's no parking at the flat itself.
