"Very Good"

Très bien situé

Rien. Note aux prochains locataires : vielle bâtisse, donc il y a un peu de bruit parfois, mais l’hôtel n’y peut rien.

"Séjour très agréable !"

9.0

La chambre est cosy et confortable. Le quartier est au coeur d'Oxford (tout est à proximité) mais la rue est calme. Hébergement très agréable !

La seule petite chose qui manquait était un tuyau avec un pommeau de douche. La baignoire était très bien mais il est dommage de devoir se laver avec un verre doseur...

"heel leuk, wel laag, pandje precies in het centrum, voor de ligging niet duur."

8.0

Locatie kon niet beter. Alles wat we wilden zien of doen op 5 tot 10 minuten wandelen. Verblijf in een pandje uit 1600. Erg leuk. Rustig gelegen met mooi uitzicht. Broodjes/koffiehuis net om de hoek, fijn voor ontbijt.

Sommige dingen wat minder, handdoekenrek in de badkamer viel uit elkaar en niet alle lampen werkten. kleinigheidjes. We konden niet rechtop staan op de kamer maar we wisten vooraf dat die mogelijkheid erin zat. Was ook wel weer grappig, heel 1600.

"Incredible location, perfect room"

10.0

The location is incredible, couldn't have been in a better position. The room was exactly as described. More spacious than expected. Tea, coffee, hot chocolate and little almond biscuits were provided which was very nice! Staff were lovely. Overall, very cosy and perfect for our short stay.

"Would definitely book to stay here again"

8.0

Fantastic location. Perfect for absolutely everything. Really comfortable bed. Old building so floors were really creaky but added to the charm… Good communication. All questions rapidly answered.

Little bit tired but still ok.
