Fantastic experience: Beautiful college, with gorgeous architecture. Stunning library. Very friendly and like other colleges in city centre, once you walk through the entrance gates you're really in another world, seemingly far away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
Positive experience: Queens College has one of the more imposing and spectacular facades in Oxford High Street, or The High, as it is known to the locals. The alcoves along the front were presumably for status at one time. Photography is often difficult as a wide selection of buses stop outside the college. If open, it is worth a visit as the interior is just as impressive as it's exterior.
