Beliggenhed var fin
Jeg ville gerne være oplyst om, at jeg skulle dele badeværelse med andre gæster.
Første dag var der kun koldt vand - det var ikke tændt. Der var ikke så meget tryk på vandet, at jeg kunne skylle sæben ud - hentede en skål i køkkenet

Die Lage mitten in der Altstadt in einem Hof mit Verbindung zur Markthalle ist großartig.
Die Unterkunft liegt 15 Minuten vom Bahnhof entfernt.
Der Eingang und die Treppen sind schmal und steil, für große Koffer schwierig.
Das Nachbarhaus wurde renoviert - Baulärm ab kurz nach 7 Uhr

Location
Nice bed
had to wait a long time in front in the street to get my keys even if I gave my time the day before and the man was rough.
No equipment for the kitchen to cook even if it’s indicated,
wifi not working
Shared bathroom is dirty (joints are orange and black), carpets are dirty (why would you put some everywhere they are so hard to clean ?)

Excellent location for central Oxford.
A little tricky to find.

the location was brilliant !
I put on the dressing gown - pink one - and found a period cup which i presumed as used which was vile.

When I went back to the room around midnight there was no electricity in the room. I spent the night without heating and without electricity. Next day I had to spend my time in a coffee shop to charge my phone. The owner said that there was an electrical problem particularly for my room. If it was indeed a one time thing, it would be understandable, but it is the second time unexpected issues with electricity happen in bookings made through booking.com..

This guest house is in a fantastic location to visit Oxford. The host was punctual and friendly. The rooms are simple and small, but very comfortable and warm even in the winter. The property was very clean. We would stay here again without hesitation.
There is a shared kitchen that can’t be used (there’s a sign up indicating it isn’t available). We didn’t intend to cook anyway, but it’s worth noting.

La ubicación es la mejor, en plena calle principal.
El personal del hotel muy atento en todo momento.
Muy bien equipado con cocina, secador, etc
Necesita un poco de reforma y actualización de mobiliario y decoración ya que está todo un poco deteriorado. La moqueta tiene algunas manchas lo cual crea mal efecto.
El baño no tiene calefacción por lo que cuando vas a la ducha pasas un poco de frío.
Por lo demás, fue perfecto para lo que buscábamos y para quedarse una noche.

It was close to the town centre and good value for money
The dressing gowns were not cleaned from the people before as we found a menstrual cup in the pink dressing gown

Very central and ideal for our purpose
Maybe a little cold in winter.

L’emplacement, l’accueil sympathique et efficace, le charme de l’ancien. La salle de douche était parfaitement propre et très confortable.
Les escaliers raides ne conviendront pas à tous les visiteurs (mais notre hôte nous a proposé son aide pour porter les bagages).
5.0 / 10.0
The location. It was very convenient and the kitchen was nice although we didn't use it.
The bed was small and not very comfortable. The floor was sloping and it was generally quite run down.

Great location yet not noisy. Old world charm but well maintained. Very well equipped and you have almost everything made available.

Price. Location. Ease
They did communicate, but it could have been better, faster, and clearer. As in how to get your keys. The phone number provided... I had problems with it

Cleanliness, historic building, comfortable bed and studio room, location and helpful staff
The shared bathroom at a different floor, but for a few days stay it was not a major inconvenience

Location couldn't be better, right in the centre of Oxford. Everything was alright, nothing to complain about.
5.0 / 10.0
Location perfect for arriving late in the afternoon with coach. Few minutes walk from the bus station. Pubs and restaurants for eating. Nice coffee shop for breakfasting in the court.
Run down with low maintenance. It was ok for 1 night but I wouldn’t stay longer.

Location, facilities, very comfortable bed, safe and secure, surprisingly spacious and quiet

Amazing location, very comfortable stay in well sized room. Shared bathroom is clean and well equipped. There's also a kitchen with fridge, microwave, toaster and everything. Kind owner and staff. Perfect for a short stay in central Oxford, as you cannot be more central than this.

Perfect for me on my own on business, easily booked and found. A comfortable nights stay with shared facilities.
3.0 / 10.0
The location is perfect, and because the apartment is off the street it’s very quiet.
My main problem with the facility is the smell of mold and mildew mildew. The other problem is the building is in need of structural repairs. The floor is extremely uneven.
8.0 / 10.0
The location can't be beat. I did a walking tour of Oxford, and we did a circle around where the guesthouse is located. It was unreal how much history is around it.
My room was comfortable, if a bit chilly at night (the heaters were very welcome). Tina was great, and very helpful.
Overall you're not going to find a better price in a better location!

I liked the property because it was secluded for me and my friends for the night and it felt like a home for the night
9.0 / 10.0
Location and value both great. Like it's not the greatest place in the world and the shower was a bit rubbish, but the bed was extremely comfortable, room was a great size and had everything I needed, and for the price I would absolutely stay again.
Also, very cute view out the window, big diagon alley vibes.
Shower was a bit bleh.
8.0 / 10.0
Lovely character to the building, very clean and tidy with extras , iron, hairdryer and cleaning products and well equipped kitchen with cleaning products with tea and coffee and biscuits which was welcome.
The entrance stairway doesn’t reflect the high quality of the room. The TV didn’t work properly despite the signal booster. We liked the old character of the room but the floors are very uneven and whilst this didn’t bother us it may not be suitable for people with mobility issues
8.0 / 10.0
Cosy courtyard, very convenient location, good value.
Staircase quite dirty, small gap in door to room, radiator not working properly.
7.0 / 10.0
The location is perfect, it is possible to go to all points of interest within a short 5min walk. There are many bars, restaurants, pubs, cafes nearby.
The bed is comfortable and the bedding is of good quality.
-There is no reception. In fact it is an apartment and they rent the rooms separately to use the same bathroom. It's kind of messed up, so there are some unusual things.
-There is no heating or heating in the bedroom or bathroom. There were two electric heaters in the room, which were insufficient for a cold of -4. Too cold to take a shower without a heater.
-There are several electrical outlet extenders everywhere, which we know are dangerous, so I found the environment quite unsafe.
