Nice guest house in a good location for accessing Oxford City Centre. Very pleasant staff. Very clean and lovely breakfast.
Problems on arrival. No-one there to let us in on arrival, despite having replied to their message to advise the owners of our anticipated arrival time. Just locked doors and no answer to knocking. Felt unwelcoming at that stage. Managed to find a chap working at the bottom of the garden and he helpfully phoned the owner and managed to let us in (not sure who he was). The door to our room was open but again no key available, by which time we couldn’t find the first chap. Phoned the owner who said she’d try to contact him snd phone back. Didn’t prove back for maybe 1-2hrs, by which time we’d decided to leave our stuff in an unlocked room, taking any valuables with us into the city centre. One of the beds not made up and no towels for this guest.
The bunk bed was extremely uncomfortable and noisy if anyone turned in the night.
Light in the bathroom was automatic, so came on brightly if anyone nipped to the toilet in the night, so unavoidably very bright which woke other guests.
We very much enjoyed our break in Oxford and the guest house was lovely and clean, nice temperature, good location and lovely breakfast and friendly staff.
A nice place to stay if the owners made sure there wasn’t a problem with welcoming guests on their arrival. I suspect most rooms are very clean snd airy and comfortable - just not the bunk bed in the family room.
