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!

The biggest issue with this hotel is the works hoing on for the station renovation. On the Friday night we had unscheduled road resurfacing right outdide until midnight One thing i never like in a hotel is hidden extras, having searched for a hotel with car parking, i dont see it as acceptable that this is in a neighbouring hotel and costs 12 pounds day. People running the hotel are nice and friendly.

Very good, well-located, inexpensive hotel
In terms of location and price, this was an excellent hotel. They have been open about being affected by noise from recent building works, but when I stayed (across a weekend in June 2024), I got excellent and quiet nights even with the window open (it was hot). Yes, some of the overall decor is dated and even a bit scruffy, but this is part of the budget package. Fancier hotels in Oxford are very expensive, and many travellers don't want to pay for that. The room itself was actually pretty modern, and perfectly pleasant. In terms of other negatives I've seen pop up in reviews: room was clean, staff were friendly, and wi-fi was fast and reliable. I had the free continental breakfast two mornings, and it was nice (especially when sat out in the garden) and I paid extra one morning for the cooked breakfast which was tasty, and preferable to cooked items sitting on a hot-plate. Overall, I'd definitely consider staying here again.

Quaint stay, friendly staff, family run business. There is construction outside but did not hear it at all at night. The rooms are around the corner from the main office, very close to train station. We stayed on the bottom floor and there was one bathroom to share with one other room stay. The bathroom was newly renovated with a very nice shower. The rooms themselves were a bit outdated, single beds, with a sink, and a window that opens to a cute overgrown garden. I was expecting a busier hostel style stay, but it was nice, relaxed, and felt authentic to Oxford. I did not have their breakfast at the main office but it looked really good and inexpensive. The only thing was walls are a little thin and doors need to be oiled. Thank you for a lovely stay.
