Location - brilliant! Facilities, bed, linen, security are all amazing - lovely and new and my room was really clean, tidy and comfortable. Really noisy when the window was open and no aircon so can get hot. I was there over a weekend and the others in the house weren’t that clean in the kitchen so could be a problem for anyone who is fanatical about mess and dirty plates.

3 bedroom flat advertised as a hotel; probably the most noisy room I have ever stayed in Oxford. No cleaning for 7 days. Never Again Expedia should take notice and should not be advertised as a Hotel.

Decent room; shared bath
Decent little room close to the University. The room does not have its own bathroom; it is shared with 3 other rooms, so a bit of a problem if you have to go, and there is someone in the bath. The room is up 2 flights of narrow stairs. Comfy bed and room which faces St. Clements, but not too noisy. The carpet was really dirty and stained, but otherwise room was ok. Also, no mention of $35 cleaning fee when I booked. Also, one morning there was no hot water, which sucked.

Although we met some problems at check out, Suzi solved things out for us really quickly. I couldn't fault about the room - very high tech and comfortable. Would recommend this guesthouse.

Great Venue for Common People festival!
Great venue close to South park (where we were going for a festival). The appartments were well furninshed and had all the equipment needed to make a good stay. Note: The bathroom is shared which may be an issue for some, but not a problem for us. The communication from Alan and Suzi was amazing. There is no parking on site, but there is a pay and display carpark round the back of the appartments.

Home automation in Oxford
An amazing apartment well located and with a lot of automation. It looks like the landlord loves domotics, home automation, remote control, Internet, TV integrated in the tub, and so on. A house all in height but with a lot of charm.

Ganske udemærlet sted.
Placeringen er i gå afstand til ting og der er rent og velholdt. Der er ikke eget mad og toilet men dele med de andre værelser. Der er heller ingen gratis parkerings plads ved det men der er en betalings parkeringsplads (den er dog en smugle dyr at holde på)

leider muss man für Parken zahlen und mit Stadtverkehr rechnen, aber die Räumlichkeiten sind ein Luxus, wenn man Zeit hat Filme anzuschauen und etwas zu kochen.
