    Everything was great.

    We loved everything! From the holistic atmosphere, to the quiet & peaceful area. They had a backyard to relax in (wish we would have stayed longer to experience the backyard). Truly comfortable beds, and the water pressure was great. The lady at the counter (apologies for forgetting her name) she was so kind and down to earth. She was very helpful. If we ever go back, we will be staying here again! Parking was right in front of the building, felt safe and well lit. We arrived after check-in hours, no issue at all getting keys and access to our room. 100% recommend to stay here! Very close to Oxford, less than 10 minute drive to the University.

    Bathroom would benefit from a shelf for storage and mixer tap on sink but it was perfectly adequate for what we needed

    Room was perfect for what we needed, just somewhere to rest and sleep while visiting family and looking round Oxford

    No breakfast room, breakfast is brought to your room the night before, so no tasty full English. But there are a lot of possibilities within walking distance.

    Clean spacious room with a kitchenette which permitted us to make our own breakfast. Nice bed, thick towels. Nicely decorated house, with even a little sitting room. Warm carpet everywhere. Very well situated, the bus to the center stops almost in front of the building. The noise of the busy road in front was no problem at all. Car was well parked on the small parkinglot in front of the house.

    Would have been useful to know what facilities exactly are in the kitchenette, eg I brought slices of bread hoping to make toast for breakfast, but no toaster - which is fine now I know, and I made porridge in the microwave instead!

    Clean, comfortable, friendly, not overheated. Hot water reliable, shower easy to use. Bed very comfortable and roomy. Relaxed atmosphere, safe. Table to sit at to drink tea etc.very thoughtful. No hidden extras on payment.

    There are ambiguities in the description of the property which need to be clarified in the write up. 1. It appears that breakfast is included and supplied to the room. After having booked, one is asked to pay for breakfast. 2. It would seem that parking is avaliable. However there are fewer parking places on the property than there are rooms. So first come first served, especially on weekdays when the parking on the adjacent street is not available.

    Clean place in a good location, efficiently managed

    The hotel is comfortable and staff friendly. Decor is a bit dated so not for those looking for a boutique hotel but it's functional and fine and much more space than you get in a central Oxford closet of a hotel room

    Spacious room, free parking, and very close to bus that takes 5 min to get to central Oxford. Also near Summertown shops and cafes. This is a much quieter area than Cowley Road and quick to Jericho area and center of town

    An extremely clean and comfortable location. The most comfortable we have ever stayed in in the UK. The room and the bathroom are really spacious. (In many locations in the UK, the bathroom looks like a torture chamber or anyway a place where you are in trouble.) The location is very well placed with easy and fast connections to both the city center, the Ashmolean Museum, and the Blenheim Palace. We will happily return to this hotel as soon as possible.
