Wonderful stay. Highly recommended
Pros:

Beautiful rooms and clever sunken construction in the lovely grounds. So comfortable. Enjoyed the part of staying in an historic building with a somewhat recent contentious story but also how the narrative and art has addressed this complexity.
The coffee shop was a simple pleasant experience, and sitting outside next to the lovely wildflower garden (in spite of the dryness from the drought).

Cons:

For the beauty and solid features and fittings in the room it was surprising how the neighbours' doors banging rattled through to our room. But not enough to deter a wonderful stay!

Lovely accommodation in central Oxford
Pros:

It’s a beautiful building in a great location. My bedroom was very comfortable and I enjoyed the garden.

Cons:

It would have been nice to have had access to some communal space (lounge/library). It didn’t really matter because I enjoyed the cafe/garden but it would have been more of an issue in bad weather

Excellent location for the university
Pros:

Location - easy to get to all central places .
Lovely garden - extremely clean.

Cons:

Weird - the room was half decorated - stopped the change of paint colour around the top of the walls .
The curtains were falling off the rail
No breakfast included - pretty expensive but then it is central

Very good.
Pros:

The premises was stunning and the location was perfect.

Cons:

The rooms could’ve been cleaner. They were very clean, but parts of it looked shabby. For instance, there was a red mark on the brown wooded table and the coffee machine had stains on the steel surface where you would have to place the coffee. They were just minor cleanliness issues. However, for £188 , once expects a perfect room.
