Correcto para una breve estancia.
Pros:

Situado al lado de la estación de trenes y cercano a un park and ride, ya que si vienes en coche no puedes entrar en la ciudad sin pagar una tasa y el ayuntamiento puede multar, por lo que es cómodo para usar el servicio de parking y bus hasta el centro.

Cons:

No tiene ascensor. Necesitaría una renovación de moqueta y cortinas. La zona es un poco aburrida por la tarde - noche.

Pros:

Royal Oxford Hotel is a good pick. The room felt tiny at first, but it’s comfortable. Air conditioning and windows are lifesavers in this 30+°C heat.

No elevator, so guests on the first and second floors have to use stairs. Luckily, the reception team helps carry heavy bags.

It stands directly across from the train station. Getting to Blenheim Palace and other spots is easy. We once thought it was a little far from Oxford University and the city centre, but public buses make trips convenient.

Breakfast isn't provided, but the downstairs café makes incredible English breakfast — the best I’ve had in four months in Britain. Recommended!

Pros:

Great location, only a few minutes walk from the train station but still close to Oxford centre / Jericho. There are lots of cafes and pubs nearby and a Sainsbury's local in the same building. Staff were really friendy and helpful. I was grateful the room had aircon as without it the room got very warm.

Cons:

There was traffic noise as the room was facing the road. If guests were talking in the hallways, it could be loud in the room.
