Very clean, spacious and comfortable rooms. Good amenities with the desk and kitchenette. Comfortable bed. All the staff were welcoming and friendly. Would recommend and stay there again.
Nothing really. Got sent a lot of information before the say maybe this could be streamlined and cut down.

Very comfortable and clean room. The host was very accommodating and helped with every sketch of the stay. Very close to bus stops that are only 15 minutes from the centre of Oxford.
Nothing as everything was really good

The room was very large and comfortable. Unlike many hotel rooms, this room had plenty of light for reading and working. There is a handy mini kitchen and the staff is very forthcoming and helpful. The BB is located in a beautiful area in North Oxford close to the restaurants in Summer Town.

Friendly staff, spacious room, quiet and comfy. Mini kitchen in room with free tea/coffee. Very simple 10min bus into the middle of Oxford (or perhaps a 45min walk but busses come every 10mins). Slightly expensive given it’s out of town but overall decent value and they are very welcoming. Space for about 6 cars on site but it’s in a residential area where you can park for free outside of Monday to Friday 9-5pm.

Kavita has created a really tranquil space with lots of really nice holistic touches. The room was spacious and comortable with kitchenette and eating space with table & chairs. Breakfast is provided in the room but with plenty of choice. The 'out of hours' check-in worked well.
Kavita herself was very warm and friendly.
Sitauated on a quick & frequent bus service into the city you're able to avoid the new congesetion charge.
Would thoroughy recommend a stay here.

Mini kitchen (kettle, teapot, crockery/cutlery, microwave and fridge). Hot water and power shower. Good towels. Spacious room. Quiet for a main road location. Friendly staff.
Mattress rather poor. Bath rather than a walk in shower - not easy to get in and out of and slippy - need a mat.

Staffs were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious, comfortable and clean.
Location is a bit far away, but still easy to get to Summertown (walking) and Oxford city centre (bus).
7.0 / 10.0
Adequate spacious room. No real problems with the room itself. Entry a bit fiddly as the hotel is split into two separate buildings. If the (miniscule) carpark is full when you arrive, it creates a problem of where to leave your car while you try to locate your key, and your building, and unmarked entry door.
Car parking although advertised is far too small for the number of rooms and this was a major consideration in my choosing a hotel. The threatened charge for every hour you do not remove your car after 'scheduled checkout time' is not mentioned until you get there and is not very friendly. There are a few (about 3) parking spaces in the neighbouring street but only at weekends.

Very cozy with everything needed there. Very welcoming staff and easy to get to the city centre. Coming there I felt like this guest house has a soul, it was a very pleasant stay.

Easy to get to the city centre. Very reasonable price given the facilities including the kitchenette and bathtub. Some staff members were very helpful. Quiet at night.
A bit away from supermarkets. The cleaning could have been done more thoroughly. Some staff members were not willing to help. The kitchenette may be equipped with some kitchen towels. The floor towel wasn't exchanged daily. Compared to other hotel rooms I stayed in the UK around the same time, the room was cold. No decaf teabags.
This was my second time staying here, and although I think I'll stay here again, but there is always a major problem in the room (light, water supply) upon arrival.

Very clean and comfortable with an excellent sized room.
Staff very friendly.
Plenty of tea and coffee making supplies with fresh milk which was replenished daily
Deliveroo worked well
Parking was tricky with no free spaces on site. However parking was available in street around the corner but you had to be moved by 8 or 9 am depending on the side of the road you parked and could not return until late afternoon as the spaces were limited to residents parking.
Some elements of the continental breakfast were not brilliant - croissants not fresh but otherwise satisfactory
Could do with some mugs rather than the small cups
9.0 / 10.0
The room was large and well appointed with a kitchenette. Oxford was walkable from the accommodation. There was free on site parking.
It would have been nice to have a free-standing shower, not over the bath. Road was busy/noisy at night. Not terrible though.
