We had plenty of room to store our clothes, big drawers and a closet. Everything was clearly explained.

    Stayed over for one night for a Noah Kahan concert on valentines and was the most romantic place I've ever been! Basement bar looked gorgeous, chocolatiere and florist shop 30 second walk, very convenient corner shop and small beautiful array of restaurants. For one night, 2 of us, £89 (which was a bargain and a half!) We were upgraded to the garden suite! Most gorgeous stunning reception and gorgeous room and windows and curtains and a mini fridge!

    A perfect location for attending Alexandra Palace and all the shops and restaurants in Muswell Hill. Surprisingly easy to park. We received a very warm welcome from our lovely hosts. The room was very tastefully decorated and comfortable. Great to have lots of mirrors too, which can sometimes be a problem with accommodation.

    Really enjoyed 3 nights at Oxford Street Homestay, fantastic location, so central. Moshe was a great host, very helpful, even allowing us to check in early at no additional cost. Comfortable room and very clean, would recommend to others and would definitely come back.
