Stayed 3 nights for 2025 British GP. Can pick up a bus 1 block away, but only 15 min walk to downtown Oxford, where you can catch bus routes to Oxforad parkway Park & Ride, or pretty much any other bus route available. Clean, nice and helpful staff. Not luxury, but just nice overall. Has private parking lot in back, but may be full if you show up later in the eveing so beware as parking overall in Oxford is awful.

Great place!

This is a great no frills option for staying in Oxford. The front desk staff was helpful, informative, and friendly. It’s just a short walk from the town center and all of the Colleges. And it’s quiet since it’s not in the middle of town. I’d stay there again for sure.

It was a very good stay for such a reasonable price! The bathroom was very much up-to-date and clean, bed was warm and comfy and the blankets are soft. It is an old building so the noise can be easily heard from other rooms. There was some guest above us that was very loud and noisy during 2am to early 6am so i wasn’t able to sleep as sound. But overall it is a great place to stay, just depends on whoever is above you

This was just what we were looking for in our visit to Oxford. Easy parking, close enough to walk into town and visit several of the Colleges. The staff was great, stayed up late to get us checked in. We will definitely stay here again in the future.

A convenient and comfortable option

The bedroom and shower room were comfortable and clean. The carpet looked new; the mattress was just right, the room temperature too. The blackout curtains were helpful to sleep in the morning and I didn't find the road too noisy. The instructions for wifi, drinking water, checkout etc were clear.
