Gateway House

All very good, the owner really friendly and accommodating.

Really helpful guy there to welcome us, went so far as helping push my car into a tight parking space, and gave brief but comprehensive overview. Room was clean and tidy, although space was tight for 2. Fridge in the room was a nice surprise. Wifi was good.

Shared kitchen is very tight to sit at the table in the outer room. Only 1 room for toilet/bath/shower shared between 4 rooms (potentially 6 people), and it's upstairs when 2 of the rooms are downstairs - could have gotten really busy (although it wasn't on our 1 night stay). Having a 2nd toilet on the ground floor would be an advantage.

The room was lovely. Patio door leading to the garden, comfy bed, a fridge, big tv, towels a d loads of little extras like disposable slippers and night cap. And fan which I was so grateful for during the heat wave.

It had everything I needed cooking large room and parking

Location

Simple and great value. Philippe is a delightful host. It’s well located to visit the local area. There is off street parking. You’ll have used of a shared kitchen. Rooms are adequate. It’s a shared house but we found all the other guests to be quiet and friendly. A simple breakfast of cereal, yoghurt, croissants and juice is provided.

There isn’t a lounge or dining room. However when we stayed the weather was good so we were able to eat in the garden which has a table and chairs.

Clean, tidy and easy to find it’s location

The room was clean,however I couldn’t watch TV as it wasn’t fixed already ..🤷🏻‍♂️

No English breakfast,when I asked they said it was Continental ..so I thought they would be toast+Butter+jam..there was only a few croissants an absolute shocker!

Very comfy night’s stay. Peaceful street and great that the ‘quiet time’ from 10 pm was observed. All as described and very good value, particularly with the inclusion of a choice of breakfast items. Easy access via key box. Clear, friendly and prompt communication.

Booked so that I could easily travel from Didcot Parkway in the morning. Only issue with my stay was the unreliability of buses from the station when I arrived - no fault of the property owners, obviously, but a bit of an inconvenience. Not trusting the buses I walked back in the morning (and might have done regardless as only a mile and travelling very light!).
