Enjoyable Stay and Accommodation in Summertown, Oxford.
Pros:

Ideal location for visiting Oxford city. Just a short and very frequent bus ride into the centre. Summertown is also a very pleasant area with quite a variety of shops and cafes only a short walk from the GuestHouse.
Accommodation was spotlessly clean, towels changed daily and a very welcoming greeting by the owner.

Cons:

Not Applicable.

It was overpriced for what it was.
Cons:

The bathroom was substandard and not properly equipped; the bedroom was dull; the establishment called itself "Bed and Breakfast" but offered no breakfast.

Bon emplacement, chambre avec le strict minimum
Pros:

L’emplacement de l’établissement est parfait

Cons:

Le prix est assez excessif par rapport à la chambre. Les murs sont du papiers il faut donc espérer que nos voisins de chambre ne fassent pas trop de bruit ou n’écoute pas la télé trop fort

No es un hotel
Pros:

La cama era cómoda y el barrio es muy agradable.

Cons:

No es un hotel. No tiene personal, tienes que llamar para que te den el código del cajetín de la llave. Solo tiene 2 plazas de parking y en el barrio no se puede aparcar.

Never again
Pros:

The single room was at the top of the house and very hot but at least it had blackout blinds. They had a fan, thank goodness.

Cons:

Check-in process was extremely poor. They’d made no attempt to make the single room look attractive. The shower room was unbelievably small.

Pros:

Az elhelyezledese kiváló volt. A személyzet kedves és segítőkész volt.

A vízforralóra egy vízkőtelenítés rá férne.
