Pros:

Friendly staff

Cons:

Room renovations were going and were noisy.
Breakfast was supposed to start at 7:30am but the doors to Breakfast room didn't open till past 08:30. Saw one guest leave disappointed. We were told that the next day the chef may not arrive till after 11:00am but we would be offered a free lunch.

Decent price for low budget accommodation, however wouldn't stay again.
Pros:

Reasonably priced for what it was.

Cons:

The distance to the City centre is longer than expected. Cabs ended up being expensive back and forward as parking costs are extortionate in Oxford. The room was clean but the shower was terrible. Hardly any pressure at all. Staff were reasonably friendly. The whole place smelt strongly of cooking as there is an Indian restaurant tacked to the side of the hotel and it was noisy at night when people were leaving to get into their cars.

I enjoyed my stay
Pros:

A good breakfast, a choice of cereals, juice, plus cooked breakfast tea or coffee. Dietary needs were catered for on request.

Cons:

This is not a criticism but as the property is being renovated there was some builders tools and materials around.

Shocking and poor standards
Cons:

The room was not clean or tidy, bed sheets where stained, shower was not clean, noise from restaurant downstairs was very loud this was not customers as it was empty this was the staff playing music.

Poor room and facilities, very misleading online with representation of room and standards
