One night stay in single room
I booked a single room for one night with shared bathroom while visiting family in Oxford.
The guest house is in a perfect location in Summertown, on a direct bus route from city centre with lots of cafes restaurants and shops close by. The 500 park and ride bus goes directly from the railway station to bus stop right opposite the guest house.
The attic room was small but spotlessly clean with fresh bedding and towels. The bathroom was modern and also spotless. As the room was in attic it had a velux window in the roof. It didn't close properly meaning if it had rained the rain would have fallen directly on the bed.
The guest house is on a very busy main road and the traffic noise was loud even during the night as I couldn't close the window. Also the walls were very thin and i could hear the conversation of the people staying in the room next door.
I'd advise guests to remember to take their room key with them when they use the bathroom as i was woken at 6am by a fellow guest who had locked themselves out and needed help!
Breakfast was available and there was a bright clean dining room although i didnt have the breakfast.
Overall if the window and noise issues were fixed it would have been a great stay its a lovely little guest house in a really convenient location for a visit to Oxford.
