Je conseille cet hôtel pour visiter la ville.
Pros:

Une excellente situation dans la ville d’Oxford.

Cons:

Les portes des chambres sont très lourdes et font vraiment beaucoup de bruit, tard le soir ou le matin…. Dommage.

Brilliant little place!
Pros:

Absolutely wonderful stay! The reception guys were great and nothing was too much trouble.
The room was absolutely spotless, no TV, no phone signal, which suited me down to the ground.
Lovely peaceful garden and nice little café serving breakfasts.
Can't wait to return!

Nothing.

The location was excellent.

Pros:

It’s a nice clean space with a lovely garden. The room was kept clean and the reception staff were very helpful. I had made two separate bookings and they were able to consolidate that so that I could stay in the same room.

Cons:

The room and the work desk are small so it was a bit tight. For someone with an early morning the on premise Nyata cafe opens later than I’d have liked at 8am and has limited breakfast options.
