Summerdown House is named as such because in the summer, we all like to go down, if you know what I mean.
Actually, Summertown House was the first place I ever lived, when I was a tiny baby. I think, from the ages of 0 to 3, I lived here. And then many times we'd come back throughout my childhood to visit friends that still lived here, and see the apartment I was a baby in, and so on.
As for the apartment building, well it's a typical, slightly dated set of apartments that used to be dirt cheap and are now more competitively priced, right on the main bus line on Banbury Road that will take you down into the centre, and not far from the Summertown shops.
Just for the memories alone, I'll give it a 5 star, because in those days, I think - briefly - my parents were almost happy. But that's probably just because I don't remember it.
