Good to know

Oxford Street is lively in the evenings, so expect some noise from people passing, especially at weekends.



Guest Access:

Guests have the whole apartment. Self check-in is by lockbox from 4 pm to 9 pm, and check-out is by 10 am. There's no parking at the apartment: Oxford Street is free to park on from 8 pm to 8 am and paid by day, and College Street car park is around the corner.



The Neighborhood:

Oxford Street is lined with restaurants, bars and cafés, and the waterfront is close. Walking times: Town Quay 7 minutes, the Bargate and Ocean Village marina 10, the Ocean Cruise Terminal 11, WestQuay shopping centre 13, St Mary's Stadium 16, the City Cruise Terminal 17 and the Mayflower Theatre 22. Families can take the ferry from Town Quay for a day on the Isle of Wight, walk the old town walls or catch a film at Ocean Village. The New Forest is about 22 minutes away by car.
