    No staff around at night or in the mornings if need anything.

    Great location. Not really a hotel, it’s just rooms above a restaurant. Simple enough. Room 8’s bathroom is across the landing so not in the room, but you get used to it. Bed/mattress a bit stiff but slept well as do knackered from doing touristy things throughout the day. Simple and cheap ish.

    There is no room service and no 24-hour staff to contact in case of emergency. It's less of a hotel and more of a house.

    Could do with an update. Massive mould stain in entry hallway which isn’t a great first impression! Bathroom for my room was located across the hall which was a little strange. It’s cheap but still wouldn’t say great value for money.

    Good location in Jericho, easy walk to centre of town

    This is not an "hotel" in the common sense. There is no reception or staff available 24h. The check-in consists in collecting the keys from a resturant downstairs. On arrival, the resturant staff asked for my name and gave me the room keys. The staff wasn't rude but not welcoming either. You can count on the staff assistance only during the resturant's opening hours, since there is no number to call. I only had a brief interaction with them and I felt I was bothering them. One of the first thing I encountered when accessing the "hotel" was a very old map of Oxford that was completely filled with mold. It is evident that the staff doesn't care much about their customers' first impression. The wifi was neither reliable nor fast.

    The building is located in a central yet quiet neighbourhood. The place is supposedly cheap for Oxford's standards.

    No breakfast even if it’s mentioned during the booking, but the biggest problem is the bathroom : dirty, tiny, almost no hot water for more than 3 minutes There is no reception, so you don’t know where to go neither who to call

    Good location, near the center, the staff seems nice

    Everything needs to be updated. Sink only cold water so a bit annoying. On the second day my mom asked to change one of the small towel, the cleaning guy refuses to change it and said towel only got changed every 3 days. Overall experience was decent & you got what you pay for

    The location is just perfect even though check in process is different from other regular hotels

    There was a charge for late check-in. Strange but I was told when I requested it. However, no one told me that it meant having to call someone when at the door because there is no physical reception desk. Also, the number on the door, on the website and on Booking.com are all different so it wasn't clear which one to use. I ended up calling the one posted on the door.

    It took us a little while to figure out how to check in, but we arrived quite late. Email instructions ahead of time might have helped but it worked out fine in the end.

    Jericho is a wonderful neighborhood, with great cafes and an amazing pub just around the corner. It is also a pleasant walk to all the main sights of Oxford. We loved how easy it was to get to the good stuff! Our rooms had comfy beds and lots of space and a fridge. Our kids loved the tea stuff in the room.

    Its slightly old fashioned by design, & could do with modernisation, but that is the style of the building & whilst it is spotlessly clean this is OK.

    It was basic, but clean & friendly staff. Great location. Very quiet but also very central. The rooms are all easily accessible & you can enter exit at anytime of day & night with ease.
