Oxford Studios

We stayed with friends who had a fairly good experience however our experience was very different. We stayed in Studio 101 and it should have been called room 101 because that’s where I wanted to put it… The room felt more like a converted garage, the bedroom and bathroom had no windows, the bed was a small double and up against the wall with no side tables. The kitchenette was bigger than the bedroom which was around 5 square meters - my husband had to sleep on the outside of the bed as he was too tall to sleep in the side with the wardrobe at the end of it. The bathroom was tired and the whole room smelt mouldy. We couldn’t open the window in the kitchen because we were on the ground floor and so there was a security worry (especially as the area wasn’t the best and didn’t feel particularly safe). Luckily our friends lent us the fan from their room. The tv didn’t work and all of the kitchen cupboards also smelt mouldy - I had to wash my glass before I used it. We couldnt have a drink on the side while in bed though as previously mentioned no side tables. We would not recommend Studio 101.
