I think for the price paid it was a lovely stay really. The room was nice and clean, we had everything we needed: towels, toiletries, hairdryer. There was even a microwave in the corridor, which we prayed on as we picked up pizza on the way to the guesthouse and it was already cold when we arrived. So, having a microwave to heat it up was a blessing! Breakfast was continental but we were also offered eggs of our choice, so I guess depends on how full you prefer to be in the morning but I had enough of food to kick the day. Staff is lovely and helpful as well.

We had no issues whatsoever.

The owner was extremely friendly, managed to park the car in front of the house and allowed us to leave the car all day while visiting Oxford. Our room was spacious, clean and the bed was really comfortable. My parents room was much smaller but adequate for a night. Breakfast is in the BB next door, it is continental only with a choice of eggs. The area is full of restaurants and only a short bus drive to Oxford city center. Will definitely be back next time we visit.

Nothing!

The welcome greeting was very friendly and helpful. They left a fan in the room which was brilliant in the heatwave. We were left alone as I think they owned at least 2 guesthouses so had our own front door key as well as room key. The continental breakfast included was served next door by very friendly staff. Great fresh coffee. Location was great - a 20 minute walk into the heart of Oxford and lots of shops on the way - an amazing coffee shop across the road and handy tesco, Sainsbury's and M&S too. Very close to local restaurants so could have a drink and walk back.

We stayed 2 nights and no room service, beds remade, cleaned, bins emptied or coffee/toiletries topped up the next day which I've never come across before?

Great value for money and location. It was a quick bus ride into town and the bus stop was very close by. The staff were wonderful and helpful, allowing us to drop our bags early and helping us with carrying them. It was a bonus to have a simple but good breakfast thrown into the price - eggs of choice and then cereals and toast with a large selection of toppings. We would definitely book here again.

Can’t think of anything.

The best value for money we had on our whole trip to the UK. Location further from Oxford than you might want but the bus stop is right on your doorstep. The room was large with an extra couch and a private bathroom. All the normal ammenities was provided with the added bonus of hot chocolate with the normal coffee and tee. The breakfast is basic in that it only provides eggs fried, boiled or pouched with toast, cereals and croissants with jam but far better than most "included" breakfasts. Really a very pleasant stay!

Only that it's just further than walking distance from Oxford.

This is the second time I stayed there this year. In February we booked two rooms, this time it was three rooms. The lady and gentleman serving breakfast are friendly, kind and helpful. Would recommend this place to anyone and everyone!

A bit more top up milk and teas if one is staying more than one night. But otherwise everything was 100%!

We stayed to attend an event at St Hugh's college and the room was handily placed for that. The room was nice and big, the bed was comfortable and there was plenty of space to put away our luggage. In the bathroom the water was warm and the shower worked well.

My only suggestion would be to have the curtains lined with blackout, as there are nice big windows but given it was the summer, it was light very early making it hard to sleep.

Everybody was absolutely lovely, very friendly staff. Great value for money the breakfast was brilliant, was able to get cereal, eggs, toast croissants, and unlimited coffee. Brilliant location if you're planning a trip to Oxford, it is only six minutes away from the town centre by bus. The bus stop is 1 minutes walk from the property, costs only £2.

Nothing, brilliant stay

Very friendly staff which were happy to help with anything. Loved all the little sitting rooms. Laurel and Hardy statues everywhere. The garden was beautifully kept we loved sitting outside amongst it

Unfortunately we had to carry our suitcases up several flights of stairs as there was no lift

Lovely room in a nice townhouse. Great location across from a nice cafe and shops. Nice and quiet. Clean. Lovely breakfast in the morning from staff who were always friendly and welcoming.

Best have a phone that works as you need to call to get access on first arrival.
