Pros:

La ubicación del alojamiento con respecto al centro de Oxford y la facilidad para llegar a todo (estación de bus y de tren), además de su cercanía a restaurantes y bares.

Cons:

Los colchones de la habitación eran bastante duros. Hizo mucho calor y solo había 2 ventiladores. Las ventanas no tenían persianas, solo cortinas de lana para bloquear el sol.

Great stay
Pros:

The location is great, close to many good cafes and several colleges. The room was big. The host was very nice. There's a nice Lebanese restaurant just below the hotel. Good shower control.

Cons:

The bed was a bit wobbly, made it harder to sleep. I couldn't find any charging spot near my bed, making it harder to charge my phone and keep the fan closeby.

Great location and friendly welcome!
Pros:

Friendly welcome and easy check in. Really great location for central Oxford!

Cons:

Interior was a bit dated and bathroom was small. But to be fair we barely spent any time in the room, and it was clean!

So dirty to the point is was uncomfortable to go back there after a long and tiring day.
Pros:

The staff was extremely pleasant and helpful. They gave us loads of coffee to have breakfast.

Cons:

The place was extremely dirty and uncomfortable.
The room was very dirty and the bed very uncomfortable. There was not a second pillow and when I got up in the morning I was more tired than the night before.
The external bathroom did not have a key to lock it from the outside; therefore, I could not make sure that people did not use it when I was away. Not only it was dirty to the point it was unpleasant to stay there, it was also too small to even use it. The shower only had two temperatures to choose from with a button, the first one too hot, the second one not enough. The sink has only a small, sloped shelf.

Pros:

The location is ideal for the centre of Oxford. The room was functional for an overnight stop due to work. Check in and out was very efficient

Cons:

The bathroom would best be described as being a very efficient use of space. Manoeuvres around the door to open/close, however, nothing wrong with the fittings

Pros:

Alright place.

Cons:

Price to quality ratio. There is just no competition in Oxford, so locations charge what they want. This is not to say that this place is somehow unusual in that regard, others can be still worse than that.
