Overall Ratings & Reviews W Oxford St Charm 1 BR Apartment Central Philly

The stay was overall pretty good! The instructions can be a little bit more clear and maybe updated on the initial message. My first night on the stay the wifi or TV would not work, but maintenance came in the morning to help fix quickly. I asked for more towels and they never brought any, but overall the stay was nice and I would do it again for a short amount of time! It was easy to get in and get out, and there was feee parking! There are many things walking distance too for a snack or food. I appreciated the stay!

I was expecting a waterfront property based on the Expedia listing picture. It wasn’t, however, the street was cute and quant and a true picture would’ve sufficed. Aside from that, it was perfect a cozy place for a quick stay. The area felt safe and nice and quiet. Parking was convenient. Its location nearby a beautiful park and a driving range. The air quality was a pit poor. Worth the money and very am satisfied.

Great value place for the price

Convenient location next to Fairmount Park and great coffee shop. Very clean, new appliances and fixtures, and comfortable. We had an issue turning off our AC and the property manager was immediately responsive and sent out someone to help us get it fixed quickly (on a weekend no less)! Would recommend staying here!

Upon arrival the unit smelled of smoke, the windows were all open like housekeeping was trying to air out the place. We planned to stay for 5 nights, 2 adults with 2 bath towel amd 2 wash clothes. When I asked for an extra towel I was told there would be a fee for an extra towel. The second night of our stay 4 police cars were in front if the builsing for at least an hour arresting a person and towing the car. On our 4th night our car window was smashed in therefore we ended up leaving a day early. We certainly couldnt stay with a broken window. The unit itself was adequate, small and little to no storage space which meant all the flat spots were covered in stuff. The only place to sit and watch tv was the bed. Will not book here again.

Doesn't respond, nothing works, I couldn't stay

The bus drops you off essentially at the front door of this hotel making it very easy to traverse around town. The only major downsides I had was a lack of hot water, which luckily I prefer cooler showers. There are a few very good breakfast places nearby however I am unsure about dinner and lunch as I was further away during those times. Overall great experience however if you are a light sleeper be aware it is very close to the train tracks.

It was clean, updated and cute…convenient near public transportation and grocery store

Clean and homey. Beautifully decorated and the heat worked really well.

Very clean and updated apartments that were safe and in great location. Thank you!

Excellent place to stay. Had everything I needed and then some

Stay was excellent. Condition of the apartment was super nice with the only exception that there is very limited parking space. The space in front is limited to only 2 hours of parking. The only way you could park is to walk about 5 minutes down the block. Overall besides the parking issues, the place was nice and clean!

Best place to relax and unwind I recommend to everybody

Electricity went out no heat in 30 degrees weather no compensation was made for the inconveniences the unit was extremely cold and wasn’t fixed until the day after

I only leave this review to warn others about what they may expect. When we first arrived to the location, there wasn't accessible parking, it was 2 hour street parking in front of the townhome and then overnight parking was a block or so down, if you could find a spot. So I don't think they should say parking is available when it's hit or miss whether you'll be able to park or not. Secondly, the property says there is AC in each unit, which there is... but you're not allowed to turn it down to cool the room down. When we stayed in August it was 90° outside, it was a joke that we wouldn't be able to adjust the cooling in the room. The final and most horrendous thing to happen to us during this is we were given the incorrect check in instructions! We were given the code to a room that wasn't ours! You can image our surprise when we started settling into our room and two strangers walked in!! They showed us their instructions and they were very similar to ours, same door codes and everything. When I messaged the property owner about not knowing which room we were supposed to stay in, I didn't get a message from them until 2 days later!! Which then had the right code and room... What the heck was I supposed to do?! I had 2 strangers in what I thought was my room, and no where to stay for the night. My partner and I packed up our things and went back to the car, needless to say we didn't end up staying here... we were stuck booking an extremely last min room somewhere else.

Very nice place

Space was quiet & clean. Central location was great for commuting from downtown to Mt. Airy and back. - Wasn't aware it was a communal kitchen from the listing. - 3 separate door codes to enter the room are the deal breaker for us. Took multiple tries every time, some doors required hitting the unlock button code, other # sign after code...Has to be a better & more convenient solution for access. - A/C requested to set no lower than 70 degrees, which we did. 86 outside felt more like 77 inside, not 70...

I was confused about the check-in instructions. I think it would be great to attach some pictures to show the steps to check-in for those who are first time to use the electronic locks.

very bad communication

Right next to Fairmont park. Felt very safe and the property was clean.
