The location of Asli's apartment is ideal for visiting Banbury - right in the centre of town. Despite it's location, we were not disturbed by any noise. Parking is a bit of an issue - if you're not comfortable leaving your car in an unprotected public car park, then I suggest looking elsewhere to stay. The apartment was very clean and is well equipped. However, the sofa and particularly the bed are both very uncomfortable - both of us struggled to get any sleep. The joining instructions helpfully tell you how to control the heating, but neglected to mention that the boiler itself may need turning on. We spent the first evening wearing extra jumpers, before I worked out that the boiler was off. Finally, the fridge was not working properly - things that I put in it only stayed cold-ish, mainly because they were cold when I put them in. If we'd been staying longer than 2 nights this would have been a significant issue, as my wife needs to keep her insulin cold.

No hairdryer and we got no answer from the owner.

Really nice flat, area itself wasn’t great as a lot of people making noise outside, but can’t really do too much about that

Overall, the place is very well laid out and looks exactly like the pictures. The communication was very good with the host and very easy to check in, and flexible check out. The only challenge is that the neighbours were incredibly noisy throughout the evening on a Saturday night and the apartment is very very hot. Appreciating it was a very hot day, but unfortunately no fan was provided, so a very uncomfortable nights sleep. A simple fan would have helped tremendously.

I recommend it!

On top of the fee to pay, they then ask you for a £200 safety deposit after you have made payment. Luckily I was able to cancel and get a full refund.
