Err I am not sure what a condo(minium?) is though I am fairly it isn't what first impressions might lead one to think....

As for the food - I indulged at a very upmarket deli in St Giles and a sunny spot in the Parks for a fraction of the cost of the sandwich lunch.

There is one at Wolvercote - and I would have stayed there if I drove.
do if driving (or half of a couple since the cost makes it a no brainer even witha taxi or two. However I took the train and stayed at Keble which was for a lone traveller not unreasonable for an ensuite, central room. But for a couple it is madness - the Randolph starts looking reasonable. Of course it is an experience staying in Hall and was safe and more sociable for a singleton. However for the younger folk they could save a fortune at the bright and shiny Youth Hostel by the station...

Just looked up the Oxford Peartree Travelodge. If you booked now it would be £49 for a family room a night Basically it is at ther far end of the Woodstock Rd and round the corner from the cemetary so you could make a quick getaway after Enyalie if so inclined. Breakfast isn't included in that price but you do get tea and coffee making facilites , a king size bed and telly.... just in case you have a low tolerancefor rubbish poetry
