Quirky but good

Quirky, slightly chaotic DIY guest house converted from an Edwardian pub. Once we got used to the self-service breakfast in the communal dining room, we found it a really comfortable stay. There's everything you could want for a continental breakfast and a really good coffee machine, With full access to the kitchen it's ideal for heating up an evening takeaway or even cooking a meal. Bitlab, the proprietor was around in the mornings and always helpful. Although our room was almost straight onto the street at ground level, which was slightly disconcerting to start with, there was very little traffic noise (more from other guests actually). Decorated to a good standard, you get the feeling that it was fitted out from an auction house. Nothing matches, but so what. Oxford is the city of bicycles, so come by train or be prepared for park and ride and lots of walking. Don't rely on the four parking spaces at the property! But you can also hire an electric bike or even an electric scooter.

Good value for money.

Outside of building misleading. Inside is clean and light. Our double ensuite had a view over the street, was clean and well equipped. Lots of hot water, radiators that can be adjusted, comfortable bed, tea making facilities. Very happy considering the price we paid. Breakfast was ok. Only issue is parking. We were lucky to get a place outside. Also major roadworks on route into town. But overall very good value for money.

Cheap and cheerful, does the basics well and good value for money. Within walking distance from Oxford station and the shopping centre (at a push). Room is small, but cozy, good for a short stay.

A great stay for a night in Oxford. Convenient location walkable to city centre, and parking available with 2 spaces. Good selection of cereal, fruit, bread etc for breakfast as well as tea/coffee etc. Will return on our next night out in Oxford.

Dismal

We did not stay , walked in and walked out . Room was dismal depressing . I didn’t see but my partner said bath was dirty . Dirty windows on main road , no blind or net curtains , ground floor , no privacy until you draw curtains . Definitely not worth £100 .

Although the site was not staffed in person, this was more than made with the fact that detailed 'WhatsApp' was given in advance as to how to gain admittance to the venue. Many thanks to those involved....

It was perfect for what we wanted. We stayed 1 night and it included breakfast. The location was perfect to walk into Oxford town centre and not have to worry about driving and parking.

It was exactly what I needed, a comfortable room for one night. The room was clean and tidy with space to put things down (not always the case) and it was just fine. My only issue - but it wasn't too much of an issue - was that my room was right next to the front door so I heard as folk went in and out.

Basic, low price accommodation

Essentially a hostel. Not a terrible stay, but very basic accommodation in a basic, unimpressive (and poorly insulated) house. The room was in a dormer, and very, very small with a shared bathroom that only had a bathtub.
