We enjoyed our stay, thanks.
Pros:

Breakfast was excellent. The bed was comfortable. The room was clean.

Cons:

Being so close to the dining hall was handy, but being in the main corridor, we were rather disturbed by late night/early morning door slamming of the fire door.
We didn't really like the see-through wall and door of the ensuite. The light shone through into the bedroom making it uncomfortable for the one trying to sleep.
Also the ensuite door didn't fit properly when closed so very little privacy.
We had to ask for the window to be opened, and were not given a key to close/open it as desired.

Prettige, rustige plek in Oxford. Dichtbij het centrum.
Pros:

Het hotel ligt dichtbij het centrum van Oxford, maar in een rustige straat. De kamer was prima. Goede bedden. Een waterkoker en koffie/thee benodigdheden. Men heeft een drinkwatervoorziening op de gang. Dat is zinvol want het water uit de kraan is erg chloorhoudend. Het ontbijt was uitgebreid.

Cons:

Er viel niets tegen.

Pros:

Excellent location good breakfast

Cons:

We got given a room with mould in the bathroom, there was no toilet brush and we had to have a very awkward conversation with reception to get one at 10pm the bathroom flooded and when we asked for directions we were given we can take any bus to Heathrow not asking what terminal and so on.. would not recommend!

Average touristy hotel, made up for by great staff who try hard to overcome any problems or issues.
Pros:

Staff were all extremely helpful. Breakfast buffet was good.

Cons:

Poor heat control in room. Dirty cups not replaced. Lack of room service. Dining room lacked atmosphere. Special orders e.g. poached eggs were VERY slow at breakfast.

Duur maar goed verblijf met helaas iets te veel lawaai van de luchtcirculatie.
Pros:

Dichtbij centrum en treinstation en toch in een rustige straat. Vriendelijk personeel bij het ontbijt. Goed ontbijt. Moderne kamers met een goede badkamer, geen geluidsoverlast van buurkamers.

Cons:

Luchtcirculatie in kamer is niet uit te zetten en maakt permanent veel lawaai. Prijs is erg hoog ten opzichte van kamer en faciliteiten, maar voor Oxford zijn dit helaas normale prijzen. Personeel bij inchecken kan wat vriendelijker verwelkomen. Kamers zijn wel donker, weinig natuurlijk licht.

Ci ritornerei
Pros:

L'hotel è situato in una buona posizione il centro è raggiungibile a piedi. La camera è risultata comoda e pulita. Il personale è molto accogliente e disponibile e l'hotel è facilmente raggiungibile a piedi dalla stazione più vicina al centro. La prima colazione la definirei discreta. Ritengo che l'hotel abbia un buon rapporto qualità, posizione, prezzo.

A neat gem !
Pros:

The location: well suited to access from Train station (8min walk) and also to explore the historic colleges by walk.
The rooms are decent size and very comfortable.
Huge shoutout to Jess at the reception who checked us in and also was kind enough to point out on a map, the sites and sounds to not be missed!

Cons:

Nothing.
