Pros:

Proximity to our planned destinations. The cuteness of it being connected to the railway station. Staff were lovely.

Cons:

Water pressure in the shower and toilet. Took ages to fill and the shower no pressure so it just came out enough to wet us and rinse.

Lovely little hotel in a really good location.
Pros:

The location was perfect for our stay. We brought our train loving son who wanted to visit Didcot railway centre, it was only a short train ride away from where we were staying.
He loved watching all of the trains pass by our room window.
A nice basic hotel with everything you need.
The breakfast was very tasty, great start to the day.

Cons:

We didn't mind mind the noise of the train's through the night but it might not be ideal for someone wanting peace and quiet.

Attitude of the staff in the bar because I arrived at 9:50. When I asked if it was too late for a drink I was told "no but you'd better hurry up, I want to go home"!

A good base for Oxford & Abingdon.
Pros:

Friendly,quirky,handy (very) for the railway station. Great cooked to order breakfast.

Cons:

Nothing obvious springs to mind. I know people mention the trains but 1) It's called the Railway Inn people!
& 2) They certainly didn't bother me so they can't be that bad.

Pros:

Breakfast was good value

Cons:

Landlady was rather rude and my husband felt she really couldn't be doing with any questions,especially as we checked if they could check in early.
Would not return.
