Breakfast was adequate. Staff was very helpful and location was great. Room was clean and good value for money. Overall I was very happy with my choice. I will keep this hotel in mind for future visits.

Maybe there could be less of a visible rush during breakfast time on the part of the staff. The kitchen being open for patrons to see and the breakfast taking place in the reception area, the rush to get through the breakfast & clear the tables did leave a bad taste at the end of an otherwise great stay. It's not really anyone's fault -- It might be an idea to serve breakfast exclusively in one of the enclosed areas not immediately in front of the reception or by the kitchen.

The staff was really friendly; the hotel is very close to the train station and not so far away from the city center (around 18-20 mins by walk). They let me leave my luggage there after I checked out, which was really helpful. Compared to Oxford's prices, this was a nice budget stay.

The room's window did not close properly or better said there is a gap where the cold air rushed in the room, although to mitigate this I found they left there a block of some isolator that matched perfectly to the window (see picture). It is nice they offer basic breakfast, but unfortunately nothing really for vegans (except some fruits). There was ongoing construction work outside, but that is not the hotel's fault and the noise was acceptable (no outside work during the night). Also it was no elevator to the upper floors, but this didn't bother me as I didn't have a large luggage.

Friendly, no fuss accommodation located next to the station. We were met by friendly staff, able to leave our bags behind the desk prior and after check in/out. The bed was comfy, the room was clean and warm and the bathroom was generously sized! You are a bit out of town but a light walk is all is needed to reach the main hub of Oxford - being right next to the station is such a bonus. Breakfast was simple fare and I really appreciated getting a proper pot of tea in the morning. We were pre-warned about the noise and provided with sound/light insulation boards in the room. We had no issue, just a low hum at night and some talking in the morning (not too early about 9am).

The shower pressure was pretty average

The staff could not have done more for us, very friendly and helpful with local visitor tips. The food is good and the rooms are spotlessly clean, which must be difficult to maintain with major roadworks outside the front door. Lovely garden, which unfortunately we didn't experience in full as the weather wasn't good enough. Great location for trains, buses and walking access into Oxford.

There are currently major roadworks outside the hotel. Not their fault and they have done their best to minimise the impact on guests, we were aware before we arrived that this would be the case. However, bearing this in mind, the B&B price seemed steep. The hotel is in a very old building which means the stairs are narrow and steep. We were right at the top, which is a bit of a challenge with 2 flights of twisting stairs. I would request a room on a lower floor next time.

Made to feel welcome from the moment I reached reception. Comfortable rooms. Work was going outside the hotel, but hosts had made sure I was well aware before travelling and mitigated pretty much all the issues. Good advise on where to get a good pint and pizza locally. Will return again if I have to go to Oxford. Look forward to using the garden

The stairs are a bit narrow. It wasn't an issue for me, but you might want to be aware. Again it's mentioned so wasn't a surprise, but if you have a large suitcase, might be a bit of a faff.

Really cosy. The staff was extremely warm and attentive, and the room was clean and tidy. Also, it was lovely to start the day having a nice breakfast in a beautiful terrace.

Everything was fine. Maybe my only suggestion is that hair soap could be provided. While I was aware at the time of booking that I needed to bring my own soap, I increasingly appreciate not having to worry about such things while traveling, especially given the airport restrictions on liquids.

The staff were very helpful and cheerful. Breakfast was nice and the cooked breakfast was really very good and good value. The room was spacious, very clean and the bed was comfortable. It was easy to park, but the train station is close by. It is only a short walk into town. I will definitely stay again as it is good value and perfect for a few days away.

The only comments I would make is that I think the bathroom could be cold in the winter as there didn't seem to be any heating. There was heating in the bedroom. The website I booked through said that you had to vacate the room at 11am, but I was asked to leave at 10.30am - it wasn't a problem, but it would have been nice to know the correct time.

The location was very convenient to the train station and to the things we wanted to see. A Continental breakfast was included and for a very reasonable price, we were able to have "made to order" hot breakfast. The shared bathroom was very nice.

We would rather have had an en suite bathroom, but there was only one time when it conflicted with the neighbor's use of it. It was a bonus to have a sink in our room.o

The hotel was located conveniently close to the train station, and I was able to check in to my room early in the day. The room was equipped with all the basic necessities, the breakfast was good enough to start the day, and the staff was very friendly.

The worst things were minor issues like the lack of a place to hang the towel while taking a shower, and getting to know the most efficient way to flush the toilet.

It's a basic hotel but it was clean and generally comfortable. Good location for walking into the town centre or along the river. Staff are responsive and helpful, both prior to and during the visit. E.g. as there is no lift, they were able to allocate my elderly parents a room on the first floor (as there are no rooms on the ground floor this was the lowest floor available) and helped them up with luggage. There are currently roadworks so no on site parking available but they have arranged parking just across the road (about 1min from the hotel) so there is minimal inconvenience. Breakfast is basic but sufficient. A cooked breakfast is available at a reasonable additional cost.

The road outside is very noisy. As there is no air conditioning, we had to open the windows and endure the noise as the weather was very hot when we stayed.
