Guest Reviews
Location
Oxclose Studios offers a mixed bag when it comes to its location. For some, the proximity to their workplaces and local amenities such as shops and convenience stores was a significant advantage. Guests found it easy to find and appreciated its closeness to areas like the Cresset and the border of Lincolnshire. The location was deemed convenient for short stays, especially for those needing access to the Sainsbury's and Aldi shopping complex nearby.

However, the property sits in the heart of a council estate, which has left some guests unsettled. Descriptions of broken glass, graffiti and a noisy environment paint a less than favorable picture for others. While some reviews mentioned a quiet area, the general consensus points toward the neighborhood's rough and poor condition with late-night disturbances affecting the overall experience. Overall, the location caters well to practical needs but falls short in terms of ambiance and safety.

Some guests found the mattresses to be really worn and observed that the bedding showed signs of significant wear and tear.
