If you are traveling to Oxford and want to be close (within walking distance) to everything, this is a cool place. The management is excellent and really willing to help. This place is nothing special, it is a place to lay your head. But it is well cared for and has great staff and a good breakfast.

The Osney Arms is a terrific place from which to explore Oxford. The rooms are small but quiet, clean, comfortable and have everything you would need. The breakfast is outstanding, with many healthy options and thoughtful touches. The guest house is also just a 15-minute walk from the train station. While the manager isn't on site, he replies quickly to any questions. I enjoyed my stay and found it an excellent value.
