The room was comfortable and well equipped but the whole place was a little dirty around the edges and could use a good cleaning. The breakfast was basic but adequate. Loved the UK-themed salt and pepper shakers on each table!

Bed linens were clean but room wasn't. Location is not as close to central Oxford as I hoped. Basic breakfast was toast, cereal and fruit. No lift.

I liked that it was a big room and very spacious for me to spread out. My only complaint was that breakfast was limited to a one hour window from 8-9am. I was unable to have breakfast due to the limited window and my trip plans not being able to work around it.

Ideal stop for Oxford

Stayed for two nights on a motorcycle trip. Adams guest house is very conveniently situated for Oxford city centre and easily accessible from the ring road. It is on a main road but was very quiet at night. There are plenty of shops and places to eat within a short walk. There is parking for two cars at the front. The room was clean and comfortable although the decor is looking a bit tired, but that doesn't detract from a comfortable experience. I only eat flakes for breakfast but there was plenty of choice of cereals, breads, fruits, yoghurt etc for breakfast and the coffee was good. Manager and staff were very pleasant and accommodating. Definitely would stay again if coming to Oxford

You get exactly what you paid for. Everything was okay. NO PARKING on the guest house. You may park on the side street for 3 hours during the day and overnight after 20:00 until 11:00. Tired looking room, bathroom door didn’t close properly, basic breakfast. However they provided everything you needed - towels, shampoo, soap, hair dryer, kettle, tea, etc. The area was safe and quiet, buses very close to the guest house, which was convenient.

Budget accommodation; friendly staff team

This is a budget offering, so that has to be borne in mind. I had the single room which is up in the roof space. It was very hot (weather 32+ degrees), and they'd provided a small electric fan. However, the built-in blind in the velux is broken, so pinged up and sunlight poured in! Overall, it was fine for a stopover. I felt safe here. The parking spaces were taken, so they kindly offered me a parking permit. Easy win would be to fix the peg in shower room that requires a screw. It was clean and comfortable. I didn't stop for brekkie, so can't comment on that. It's run by a friendly, communicative staff team. I'd stay again as I know exactly what I'm getting.

The room was pretty small and dusty. The shower drain wasn’t working. There was a window in the ceiling through which a lot of noise and cold air would come through. There was no elevator. The host was responsive when I contacted him about my late arrival though.

The stay was okay. There is parking available and it is on the bus route. The room was clean but the rug is a tripping hazard and a crack on the wardrobe which was covered with masking tape. Not a good look.

Nice breakfast. Very nice filter coffee. Another thing. There is an English standard, and there is a Nordic standard. I've rated this according to what I take to be an English standard. Using a Nordic standard, the ratings for cleanliness and property conditions would definitely be lower. 2 stars at most, I am sorry to say.
