Studio - Lake Street, Oxford OX1

Oxford Mail:

We're not exactly sure whether this landlord understands the meaning of 'studio', because whoever takes up this bedroom will share the bathrooms and kitchen in the building. 

For £495 a month it seems you get a room in a glorified hostel. 

Oxford Mail:

The property is close to the city centre and comes with double glazed windows, so at least you'll be warm.
