Guest Reviews

• Callum (10/5): It was like visiting a family friend! - We had a nice cup of tea and a good conversation with Monika when we arrived which was nice! Good tea too., the bed was soft and comfortable, food shower and friendly host! It was a great place to stay and we're looking forward to being back. I don't really think there is anything that can be improved!
• F. D. E. (10/5): Staying with Monika and her family was truly a delight which far surpassed our expectations! - Staying with Monika and her family was truly a delight which far surpassed our expectations! We found nothing at all wanting in the accommodations, but to the contrary Monika’s welcoming hospitality to us went above and beyond our expectations. Truly, we felt that our experience staying with Monika and her family only enriched our stay in Headington, Oxford and added to the wonderful memories made. We would highly recommend Headington Haven, and would happily stay there if ever again in Oxford ourselves!
• Khalil (10/5): - Rien à dire tt est bien
• MESHACK (8/5): -
• Cecile (8/5): - La propreté, l'accueil par le fils de 17 ans ,le calme. L'éloignement,
• Guest (8/5): Great stay ! -
• Soheila (4/5): -
• Truan Jay (8/5): Friendly family home, lush dog, good location. - Monika is super friendly and we had a lots of nice chats, but I could also have chill time when necessary. I quickly became besties with the little dog Alice. Location was fairly close to Oxford Brookes Uni which is why I was there. Also Shotover park is pretty close by. Room was nice, lots of light. Even got given home baked cookies one evening. You just have to be aware you are living in someone else’s family home, which is well lived in by Monika’s family and sometimes other guests. It was fine for me but maybe not for everyone. The bed was a kinda futon thing so fine but not the most comfortable.
• Eden Grace (10/5): - The host was so lovely and gave us al he information we needed for an interesting stay in Oxford. It was comfy, clean and peaceful.

• Maddison (9/5): Perfect place to stay for those travelling solo. - It was comfortable, cozy and Monika was just lovely! It felt like a home away from home. It is a distance from town but there are buses close by making it easily accessible.
• Lynley (9/5): Great stay in comfortable Oxford home - Warm welcome and pleasant stay. Host is relaxed and very helpful. Room was large, clean and comfortable. Within walking distance of Headington shops, Shotover Park and close to bus route. Free overnight on street parking.
• Larine (10/5): Exceptional - I like the neighborhood, the owner, and the place in general, easy communication, quiet night I had a good sleep, and everything was set and clean once I arrived,
• Rafal (10/5): Very nice stay. - All was brilliant 👌😊.
• Zsolt (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely host who was very helpful and accommodating. The room was clean and tidy with a comfortable bed ensuring a good night’s sleep. The facilities were also clean and tidy. Can’t wait to return.
• Santos (1/5): Bad - The male host is courteous at first meeting, but when we are about to leave, he don't bother to talk to us and don't bother to offer us breakfast, so I'm confused with this kind of treatment. I don't understand why I need to cancel the stay and will get a refund when in fact it's not refundable.The room is a bit clean but the whole house is not.No breakfast offered eventhough it says breakfast included.I can also smell the cats wee inside the room.The bed is not comfortable.
• Jonathan (10/5): Very comfortable stay - Easy access n close to work Nothing
• Santos (1/5): Bad -
• Gary (4/5): Disappointing -
• Phan (10/5): Wonderful homestay with lovely people - Lovely area, cozy place, friendly and supportive people. Monika and her family is an amazing host. I and my friend absolutely had a great time and chat there.
• Valerie (9/5): Quiet room w/shared bathroom - not far from Oxford campus - Host was super nice and offered us a great room in her home. We paid extra for the continental breakfast and it was lovely to sit with owner and discuss UK/USA stuff. Room was comfortable and shared bathroom worked out well for us. Our visit was too brief. Would definitely look up this place for a next visit. Parked our car across the street. We used the Park and Ride nearby to save money to see the downtown campus. Great pubs a short drive or 20 minutes walk from her place. Nothing!
• Lori (8/5): Very good - MOnica’s place is well located in Headington, and the buses are quite close. Monica is very welcoming and gave us lots of ideas about exploring Oxford.
• Steven (7/5): Good -
• Maria (9/5): Nice home stay in Oxford with very friendly family - Nice home stay in Oxford with very friendly family :-) The room was comfortable and quiet. It was very easy to get to the city centre by bus. Free parking over the weekend. We liked staying in a private home instead of hotel due to the interesting conversations and tips.
• Iana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michaela (9/5): very pleasant home stay, with great location - The whole stay was pleasant, the host family is very welcoming, with insightful conversations, tried to help with any problem, rooms were clean and spacious. The meals were home made and delicious. Easily accessible by bike or public transportation. Great location for walks or runs in the vicinity. all was fine.
• Lim (8/5): Very good -
• Souravi (10/5): Exceptional -
• Xinyi (10/5): Exceptional - I had a delightful experience booking this homestay on Airbnb. The accommodation features a lovely and loyal little dog, Alice, and a mischievous cat named Gremlin, which adds a charming touch to the environment. Everyone staying there was incredibly friendly; we often shared meals and engaging conversations while respecting each other's privacy and space. I highly recommend taking the opportunity to have a friendly chat with the host, Monica. She embodies the warmth and care of a true host. I came to Cambridge to unwind from study pressures, and this homestay exceeded my expectations with its reasonable pricing. It's more than just a place to stay; it's a sanctuary where you can relax and recharge. If you're looking for a comfortable and welcoming place to stay, I wholeheartedly recommend it.

• Walker (9/5): Fantastic stay! Warm, welcoming, clean, friendly! Highly recommended! - As someone that had never stayed in a homestay before, I have to admit that this stay was superb! The family was welcoming and warm, the house comfortable. The room was beautifully decorated and it really was like staying in a friend's home away from home. Highly recommended! I wished there were more frequency of buses in the area, but that is by no means a poor reflection on their place as they have no control over that!
• Marko (10/5): Truly a home away from home - When we arrived, we immediately felt at home. There's everything we needed for the stay, the room is quiet and cosy. The place is a nice 45min walk to the city centre. We had an enjoyable evening chatting with the host, Monika, and other guests that joined us. I have originally picked this homestay because of the cat pictures and we were not disappointed, Gremlin the cat is one of the cutest and nicest cats I have met.

• Aabhas (10/5): A place where I would love to return for my next stay. - The host, Monika. It was truly a pleasure staying at her property. One of my best experiences ever. Monika is such a delightful person to have a conversation with, she was more than helpful. Monika shared recommendations about the area, transportation, meals, etc. It was indeed a smooth and memorable stay. Highly recommend the homestay, for both, short and long stays. My stay couldn't have been better. All thanks to the host.
