The staff are very friendly. One of the owners got us a map and showed us all the places of interest to go to in Oxford. I liked how close we were to the centre. All in all a lovely place to stay
Lovely family run hotel in central location. It’s was a bit underwhelming from the outside but the garden is beautiful and the we enjoyed the hospitality. Breakfast was very nice. We will definitely go back next time we travel in Oxford.
Was in the annex which was good as a late night. Have to go to main hotel for breakfast

This is in a very convenient location, unfortunately there are noisy roadworks at the moment and the kitchen was being renovated during my stay, so there was not a cooked breakfast.
This hotel is next to the train station so you will hear and see the trains from your window. There are steep stairs and no lift so I would recommend not bringing any big or heavy luggage. The breakfast is just toast, cereal (only Kellogs products), yogurt, fruit and juice (coffee and tea of course), but if you want anything hot you have to pay extra (for example, Heinz beans on toast will cost you about $5; if you want eggs with bacon and sausage be prepared to pay about $13). It is located on a very busy street and there will be a constant stream of people walking by all day. It is about a fifteen minute walk to the Westgate shopping center on the south end of town, and another fifteen minutes to the central part of town (such as the covered market). It seemed quite expensive for the type of room you get, but Oxford is an expensive city to begin with. Parking is available acrossthe street for about $16 a day.
The property was clean.
For the annexe property where three rooms were sharing 1.5 toilets/bathroom it was exceptionally maintained with great cleanliness standards.
Although there was road works, the place was easy to access. No lift in Annex which was tough with 6 bags on top floor. Will the manager was outstanding. I would go back given his hospitality and guest service. Seemed a happy place where staff were chatty and happy.
I stayed in separate building down the street. Small rooms with shared toilet and shower. It was nice enough. The staff were excellent. The area is under heavy construction so alternative parking was needed. But this was arranged. Breakfast was very nice, a free option with ability to buy more. Road closures made getting to hotel difficult but detailed instructions were provided and they worked well. This is a modest but affordable place within easy walking distance of the University.
This is a nice affordable lodging. The staff were great and accommodating. I stayed in the annex, a building down the street. Small spartan room with shared toilet and shower. It worked out well for me (might need to bring shampoo). The breakfast was good. There is a lot of construction around the building making parking and getting to the hotel difficult. But I was given excellent instructions before arrival and that was enough.

A great hotel with fume of history. Convenient location to all. Great breakfast for all your family needs. Please be aware of the noise of surrounding construction. The impacts are not just the excessive noise but the hot water supply to the bathroom. We do not have the hot water on the first night, need to use public bathroom. We still have issue of the hot water on and off the second day after the hot water pressure device replaced. We ask reimburse from the manager but did not get the response. Hope they could get this issue resolved for future travelers.
Stayed in a twin room that was very convenient for myslef and a friend. Comfortable and very closeby to the city centre.
Only slight annoyance was when we arrived the room hadn't been cleaned from people before, spoke to the cleaner and said she'll clean next, even though we had arrived much after the arrival time.
Overall once cleaned there were no complaints. Lovely staff!
