Botley Townhouse

There should be a doormat in the bathroom

Very Good

這是我這次旅行中最差體驗的一個住處了。先説好的吧：床還比較大也舒服，衞生間大；公共廚房提供了必備的用品。糟糕的：1，在火車站的背面，離市中心較遠，因火車站附近修路，也沒有公交可乘到市中心，全憑走路，交通不便；2，別被聯排別墅忽悠了，就是一普通住宅。房間很小，二個旅行箱打開後基本就沒有地方了。3，房間的隔音太糟糕了，樓上走路説話的聲音一清二楚，直到半夜。 唉😮💨

衞生不錯，環境也過得去，設施一般物不所值。樓上的腳步聲，上下樓梯，開門關門歷厲在耳。七百多塊一晚不推薦使用。

On the down side - Grungy building overall, lots of scuffing, carpet stains in the halls/stairs, etc. bits of trash also around the place, cleaning of common areas seemed sporadic at best. Wifi password on sheet in rooms was incorrect in most cases, we had to get help from fellow guests (password was default jumble of letters and numbers, some capitalized, some not, but many rooms had instructions that put ALL the letters in caps). PLUS, all the wifi instructions failed to give the name of the network which, again, was a default meaningless jumble of letters and numbers so again we needed the help of fellow guests to figure it out. Walls and floors are wafer thin, so you get to hear your co-guests quite well. Door to patio from kitchen did not shut, much less lock that struck me as a concerning safety issue. Numbers on front door to call for assistance are meaningless; one wouldn't connect, the other went to voicemail and voicemail was never returned. Drain in our shower was clogged and, oh yeah, no point trying to call the folks listed on the front door, they ain't gonna answer. Rat trap in patio seemed telling, but all cities have rats so make of that what you wish. On top of it all, cell coverage for just about any service is non-existent, why I don't know. On the up side - the room was clean and the bed was fine.

Stayed one night with friends. You get an entry code for the front door and one for your room , as far as I could see no one lived on site apart from the guests. It was all clean and tidy, there is a kitchen on the ground floor that you can use, it is well supplied with tea and coffee ( dolce gusto machine and pods) but no drink making equipment in your room. We cooked breakfast and dinner in the kitchen but didn't see anyone else use it while we were there. We had room 6 on the top floor, fairly quiet, well presented and spacious. We had asked for it to be set up with 3 adult sized beds but arrived to a king size , single bed and very bouncy fold out child bed, we split the king size in to two singles and had 3 very comfy beds. We all had a good night's sleep. Room 3 could be very noisy as it's door opens into the kitchen and room 1 and 2 are right next to the front door but when you book you can see which room you are booking. 4 and 5 were on the 1st floor with 6 on the second, narrow staircase to 6 of you have big bulky luggage. It was good value and being able to cook for ourselves meant we could cater for dietary needs and keep the cost down. It's 10 to 15 minutes walk from the railway station, there is a waitrose almost opposite for self catering.
