Excellent location, within walking distance of the city centre and very easy to find. The room was cleaned on a daily basis, the bed was a little small but the shower was excellent
It would have been nice if breakfast was included in the cost

Great location and quite comfortable. Lots of stairs, but we knew that was the case. The good thing is being high up off the street, it’s much quieter. Lovely continental breakfast for a small fee.
Electric tea kettle didn’t work.

Disappointing
nice bathroom, very friendly staff
sheets had brown marks on them, the fireplace didn’t turn on for more than a few seconds at a time so it was quite cold

Great location. Clean and well-maintained. And a good value.
It was nothing fancy - but the cost was right.

Friendly, helpful and responsive owner. Free parking (first come, first served). Great location for access to the city centre. Basic facilities, but clean and comfortable for a one night stay without much time spent in the room.
Parking not guaranteed, but with the park and ride not far away there is at least a back up option.

A hotel that exceeded expectations compared to other hotels in England. Clean, cozy and not as old-fashioned as you usually find in England for cheap money.

Easy walk to Oxford center as well as river activities. Great parking lot. Newly redone room.
Was chilly and not able to adjust thermostat for heat.

I don't like to spend a lot for a room when I am traveling alone. I'm just going to sleep there anyway. This room was perfectly adequate. It was clean and comfortable. It would be small -- probably too small if you were traveling with another person. They offer breakfast but I didn't pay for it. The staffers were pleasant and helpful.
It was quite a long walk from central Oxford -- about 20-25 minutes. There isn't very much in the immediate area, just a couple of pubs.

Quiet place with sports view outside window with free parking lot.
A little bit difficult to find the right parking lot when you driving to as building is beside busy road.
