Poor
Pros:

The bed & pillows were fantastic.

Cons:

When leaving the hotel, we were not allowed to keep our room key with us, which was quite inconvenient.
The water pressure in the bathroom shower was extremely weak, making it difficult to shower properly.
Breakfast was not included. The breakfast venue recommended by the hotel offered, at best, a poor breakfast experience and did not represent good value for money.

Good oxford hotel
Pros:

Comfy bed, reasonable price, spacious room

Cons:

No lift, about 10 min walk from center, the coffee shop adjacent to the hotel, which was promised to serve breakfast, had low staffing so could not actually provide it, and tgey talked verg rhdely to us, and no other places to get it close either, so we stayed hungry. No parking

Toller Kurztrip nach Oxford mit vielen tollen Erlebnissen und Sehenswürdigkeiten zu Hauf.
Pros:

Komfortables Zimmer mit Kingsize-Bett. Bad war top. Trotz Lage an verkehrsreicher Straße kein Lärm. Personal sehr freundlich. Vom Hotel aus ist die City in weniger als 10 min zu Fuß zu erreichen. Haltestelle des Airline-Busses von Heathrow ist auch in der Nähe.

Cons:

Das Wetter ;-) Die Preise fürs Bier im Pub :-(
