Great location and lovely character property
It was a brief stop over to visit our daughter. We were met on arrival and checked in. On entering our room it was like stepping into a sauna so we turned the heating off in the bedroom but we couldn’t turn off in the bathroom. The room could do with some general maintenance as the light behind the mirror in the bathroom didn’t work and neither did one of the bedside lamps. The showergel dispenser in the shower needed refilling. We had a pleasant stay, the hotel is very old and therefore due to the age of the property there are a few creaky floorboards and you can hear people moving around the property. Outside noise was quiet.

Lovely historic place. Only stayed 1 night. Had room with bath only. Had I stayed for more I would have preferred shower. Still. A very unique experience and very clean!! Excellent location!

Perfunctory 'welcome', reception the only nice part of the building. It is from 1700's so expected wonky floors etc, but shower fitting had been hanging off the wall for some time, soap container by sink empty, wallpaper peeling and lots of tatty decorating. Grossly overpriced

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The place is definitely not worth the pricing, even considering the really good location. Considering and accepting the "shared bathroom" option it was assumed that the bathroom is standardly shared for two rooms and is located next door to the room, while in fact it is shared for 9 rooms and located on another level of the building, requiring climbing the stares. The room is very tight and small. The cleanliness of the shared bathroom is not acceptable as the personal only attends property when there are new customers coming. No interim bathroom cleaning is performed.

A small hotel with a B&B feel.
A small hotel with a B&B feel. This is an old building, fitting with the town of Oxford with modern features like a flatscreen tv and wifi. The location is a side street but still in the heart of town. An easy walk to all that Oxford has to offer including the new shopping center.

Mange your expectations and its pretty good
This is truly a no-frills place. Usually, there is no staff on site at all. Very informal. The maid who let me in speaks only Portugese and worse French than I do, but we managed. Simple, modest room and bath. Nice bed, perfectly comfortable. No other facilities or services. The fan in my room was past its best days but worked. Internet worked fine. Quiet street, creaky old building with very narrow halls and steep stairs. Great location.
