No vale la pena
Pros:

Estaba cerca de las atracciones principales de Oxford.

Es muy caro, no vale la pena. La habitación es súper pequeña, la cafetera no funcionaba y no incluye desayuno en el precio.

Pros:

Неймовірне розміщення в історичній будівлі фонду Родеса. Номер у стилі старого Оксфорду. Неймовірний еркер з кушеткою для відпочинку. Тиша, затишок, комфорт.

Beautiful getaway! If I go back, this is where I'll be staying.
Pros:

The location is perfect, with a beautiful 5 minute walk to Broad Street. The room is small, but clean and cute, and great for a 1-person weekend stay.

Cons:

The check-in process is a little strange, where it's not clear how to enter the building. There are no signs. The room is on the small side for more than one person.

I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
Pros:

The room was clean and spacious, and all the staff were very helpful. The bathroom was bright, with good lighting that made it easy to put on makeup. The WiFi was good, and it was easy to order a taxi using an app. And the heater was small but very powerful and the shower was hot and worked well.

Cons:

The location is too far from the city centre. The room had only one chair (and it was a cheap plastic chair), and it was very uncomfortable. The bed was excessively high and far too bouncy, making it impossible to relax.
There were also basic design issues. The toilet paper holder was placed so far away that it was difficult to reach while seated. The layout of the building is confusing and poorly signposted; I got lost multiple times trying to find reception.
There was no TV or fridge in the room, which is unacceptable at this price point. The café was also extremely disappointing. It was advertised to open at 8am, but when we arrived at 8am, coffee was not available as the staff were still “cleaning” the coffee machine.
Overall, despite the clean room, the lack of comfort and poor facilities made this a frustrating stay.
