Comments: The owner of this place does not know the meaning of the word "maintenance". Rooms are very bad and full of dirt (carpet and matresses have not been replaced in decades!). The shower was specially bad; no room for your legs while using the toilet. Access door could not be locked up. Breakfast is the only thing that could be rated as good (varied and abundant). I don“t recomend this place at all.

Comments: A rather musty, somewhat unkempt building with a rather neglected atmosphere. Good breakfast though. A little farther from the centre than the website indicated. Daniel O'Mahony

Comments: Admittedly very nasty hostel, but extremely cheap. The bed had clean sheets and the bathroom was clean, which is the most important things. Breakfast remarkably good considering the price. Don't go there if you're allergic to dirt, but if you only need a place to stay and are short on cash it's an option.

Comments: The owner, we think, is a bit shy therefor he can seem a bit grumpy BUT the "HOTEL" is awful. Moulder on the walls, bad smell, strange people knocking on your door (two times during one night), you dont want to touch the carpet with your bare feets in danger of getting bitten of a strange bug from the shower...please think twice before you book this "hotel". Its NOT worth a single penny.

Comments: The owner was not very hospitable making it seem that he doesn't care about his guests. In the room the bed sheet had faint yellow stains so I used my sleeping bag and slept on top of the second sheet. There was a funny smell to the place. A good, wide variety for breakfast and the servers were quite nice. The location was decent, only a 10-15 minute walk to the city centre.

Comments: For the price, this place is great. A good breakfast in the morning, a nice enough English staff and ownership, and a close location to Oxford make it nice. You also can get your own bathroom at a decent rate. Downside, it is a bit loud, but what B&B isn't in Oxford? Recommended.

Comments: general staff were fine and quite nice and helpful, though the person who seems like the owner acts like he doesn't care one way or the other if you're there, nonchalance bordering on arrogance. In a good location to Oxford though, a lovely stroll by some of the old buildings (eg Magdalan), very close to a few decent pubs, and affordable

Comments: Average quality but what you would expect for the price. The breakfast was disgusting as everything was so cheap. Have less items for breakfast & better quality instead of a big english breakfast of low quality offer only a few items which people will actually enjoy.

Comments: good breakfast and location to all the good stuff in oxford. very cheap. clean bedding and towels, carpets needed a hoovering. i would recommend it if you are there for breakfast and sleeping only and spend the rest of your time in town, not a good place to spend a lot of time in.
