A lovely family-run guest house. Everything about the property is fantastic. They are helpful and kind. You can walk downtown or cross the street and take the bus, which passes every 10 minutes. There are shops, restaurants, and supermarkets close by. The room was clean and cosy.

Comfortable Stay in a Great Location

We had a pleasant stay overall. The room was clean and the bed was really comfy, which made for a good night’s sleep. The location was ideal—close to the city, restaurants, and with parking available nearby. Late check-in was easy thanks to the key code system. The room had some nice touches like tea bags and biscuits, although there wasn’t quite enough milk provided. The only downside was the kettle, which was covered in a white powdery residue—hopefully just limescale, but it wasn’t very appealing. Aside from that, it was a convenient and comfortable place to stay, and I’d consider returning.

This was not the best guest house I have ever stayed in, for sure. The room had an unpleasant odour and there were damp patches on several walls. Fittings were not pristine either. Perhaps most problematic was the security light that was on all night and streaming through the (unlined) curtains. Towels and bedding were provided and were clean and the lady who greeted me was friendly.

Staff was very friendly and the room was clean, however the condition was poor with worn furniture that had seen its best days. The single room I booked was advertised with a private bathroom (not en-suite), however it was used by other guests in the house as well. Some of the few sockets in the room did not work.

I thought the accommodation was very good I have found that organising accommodation on line that there is no phone number to call as I had mediocrity me that needed a small fridge to put it in But as in both off my bookings they did put my medication in there own fridge and froze my ice bricks I had with me The only susjestion I can make that they should state if there is a fridge in the room or not because I just expected there would be one The breakfast in Oxford was good but maybe a chance to have porridge made as a option would have been nice Overall very happy Strphen Brown

1. Absolutely atrocious checkin and checkout. If my friend (in another city in the Uk) didn’t have a local sim, I wouldn’t be able to checkin at all. Checkout was just as bad. I sent 5 emails to Expedia, multiple to the property and none form the property were answered. Checkin and checkout instructions were not provided. The reception was in another building but that was never communicated. 2. No toiletries were provided. 3. No coffee or tea was provided. 4. Booked the room for 2 people and only got 1 towel. 5. Would avoid this property altogether. It caused me so much headache.

I normally don’t leave reviews but for something like this I was extremely disappointed. The room I was in was not clean and when I asked the property owners to change the sheets they said that I put something on it, mind you I’d just gotten there two minutes ago and they were showing me my room. The outlet was undone and felt dangerous. The bathroom was so small you couldn’t open the door all the way as it would hit the sink half way through. This wasn’t a very cheap rate either, the easy hotel down the street was charging 5£ less than they did but I decided to go with this because I wanted a more authentic experience and the pictures online looked cozy. Overall was it the worst place you could have? No. Would I recommend it to someone else? Also no. Would I come back? Definitely not. I’ll stick to proper hotels from now on after this experience.

This room should not be rented out during summer. The room was in the attic (sort of a third floor), up 4 short flights of stairs, with two large roof windows facing full afternoon sun. The room was unbearably hot during the entire afternoon/evening and well into the night every day of my 6 day stay. I was out of the room each day by about 8am, so I am not sure at what time of day it became unbearably hot, but I suspect if may have been by early afternoon. I could not endure spending any more time than absolutely necessary in this room as it was making me feel physically unwell due to the stress of the heat each and every day. The separate shared bathroom (toilet, vanity sink and shower) in the adjacent room was also unbearably hot, so much so that as soon as I got out of the shower and dried myself, I was instantly drenched in sweat and needed to get out of the tiny bathroom because I could hardly breathe. The room was so small you couldn't even open the door more than a third of the way due to it hitting the vanity sink. I had to spend time at the local supermarkets and restaurants from 5-approximately 10pm, to seek refuge there during the most unbearably hot hours for this accommodation. There was a small desk fan and the windows did open so I could finally cool the room down by about 1-2am if I opened the windows by about 10pm. I slept poorly, due to the heat. This room would pose a health hazard to many people, the young, old or any with an underlying medical condition.
