Décevant
Pros:

La localisation dans Oxford
Le parking proche de l'hotel

Cons:

L'absence de climatisation alors qu'il faisait très chaud
L'impossibilité d'ouvrir la fenêtre
La vue de la fenêtre directement sur la cour et des tables obligeant à garder en plus les volets fermés
Le coffre fort très petit
Le caractère un peu vétuste de l'hotel
La chambre n'est pas faite sous prétexte d'écologie sauf si vous le demandez expressément
La parking payant
Petit déjeuner triste
Pas de frigo dans la chambre ou acces à fontaine d'eau fraiche
Pas beaucoup de personnel

Zentrale, dennoch ruhige Lage, um Oxford zu Fuß zu erkunden
Pros:

Die Lage des Hotels ist super, wenn man Oxford fußläufig erkunden möchte. Wir hatten Zimmer im Innenhof, wo man noch Tische und Stühle zur Nutzung zur Verfügung hatte. Trotz anliegender Hauptstraße war dort ganz still und man konnte gut schlafen. Das Frühstück und das Abendessen waren sehr gut und wurden flott serviert. Da wir vor der Frühstückszeit zum Flieger mussten, hat man uns ein Continental Frühstück zur Verfügung gestellt, das war sehr nett.

Cons:

Die Ausstattung des Zimmers und des Bades waren zweckmäßig,aber okay. Das Zimmer wirkte etwas dunkel. Wenn man einen Cappuccino statt eines Americanos oder Tee zum Frühstück wollte, musste man zuzahlen. Das war auf unserer Rundreise das erste Mal.

Lovely old building but a struggle in the warmth.
Pros:

Lovely old hotel right by the university parks with surprisingly large rooms and lots of cool nooks and crannies.

Cons:

Because it is such an old building no air con (just a fan) which when it was 30 degrees plus just moved the hot air around.)

Also no fridge so just warm water.
