My stay at St Stephens met my needs - clean, quiet and comfortable. The room I booked had a basic kitchen and ensuite. The cooked breakfast each morning was great and real filter coffee not instant - brilliant. A comfortable walk into the city past beautiful colleges, views and shops. I felt safe walking into town and back to St Stephens in the evening.

Very pleasant accommodation. College members happy to help with any questions visitors might have concerning the College. Negative: There could be better facilities for reporting faults: my table lamp did not work during the whole stay.

Anon

Nice accommodation giving you some feel of the Oxford student life. Small, but clean and well equipped rooms, conveniently located in Cowley. Very good value for money in Oxford. Thanks for the stay!

Anon

Easy to access property, room clean and functional. Good ensuite shower. No nonsense. Good location, quiet but near to sights, restaurants etc. Thank you.

Overall experience is above average to good, someone stepped on wooden corridors causing loud noises during mid-night,

Anon

Breakfast could have benefited from a little more variety, but that's a nitpick. Good service overall.

BrunoS

Everything was great. Maybe a bit more fruits/veggies at breakfast? The rest was great.
