Lovely guest house in a good location. We arrived earlier in the day before check in but were able to use the car park, called to say we had arrived and went off for the day - when we returned our keys were ready for us. Would stay here again.

Good location. Small room. Easy check-in. No sound proof wall between rooms. I could hear the noises from next rooms or corridors. The car park was good.

Great value for money on a busy weekend in Oxford. The room was small, but warm and had all we needed. The bed was comfortable. Only small complaint was the shower stall was small and the water pressure was weak.
Front desk staff was helpful and polite.
