A terrific spot for a visit to Oxford.

All of the staff were very welcoming and helpful. Easy access to central Oxford via bus or taxi. The rooms are well-appointed and the beds are very comfortable. Breakfasts are cooked to order and very tasty. All in all, a great place to stay.

  • • Pésimo wi fi en la habitación. En mi caso la habitación estaba arriba de la cocina y hasta las 23 hs hubo bastante ruido. Tener en cuenta que para ir a Oxford se debe caminar aproximadamente 5 cuadras para tomar un bus. Distancia total hasta el centro de Oxford ( alrededor de 3 km)

  • • the breakfast was a bit varied each day in terms of quality, first day was dry and overcooked but other days was fine although varied in size/amount. We ate in the bar one evening and the food was very nice.
