DO NOT STAY HERE

DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES The bed had bed bugs and I was woken at midnight covered in bed bugs and bed bug bites. The bathroom, shower head and ceiling was grimey and overall dirty. The noise outside was very loud and I got very little sleep due to general noise and delivery drivers banging and talking. The manager was extremely rude when I spoke to him and was SHOUTING at me down the phone when I was discussing the bed bug issue. He point blank refused to give a refund for the stay. A terrible terrible business and management. DO NOT STAY HERE.

Chosen purely on price and location namely cheap and central. City centre so expect it to be noisy at night. Currently building work going on opposite so noisy early morning. Keys collected from polite person at desk on arrival. No one there in morning but not an issue. Narrow staircase if u have heavy luggage. Room clean. Kettle, Hair dryer, iron. Bedding clean. Bathroom clean. Mould around shower but not a game changer. Fire extinguishers in hallways. No fire exit found other than main staircase. Cheap, City centre location, city centre noise, Room clean. Fulfilled our brief cheap and central.

Noisy street but good room

Room was comfortable and both room and en-suite were clean, and the stay was very good value for money. However, my room faced the street and even with the window closed I was disrupted several times during the night from noises outside (e.g. waste collection) so if anyone is a light sleeper I would suggest requesting a room not facing the street! Obviously the hotel itself is limited in their ability to rectify this.

Rooms were cute. Stairs to room were narrow & was glad we were on the first floor. TV had poor picture quality. Could hear people talking outside on the street.

Emma

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Everything in the room was clean, and based on other reviews as I expected. The front is a little hard to find in the dark though. The location is excellent for the centre of town and lots of food and transport options right outside. I didn't actually see anyone who worked there the whole time, so this is not a place to stay if you need assistance. The room was noisy from outside, but earplugs sorted this out.

Disliked: Amenities
when people say no frills they mean no frills. 2 towels, no small ones, shampoo no conditioner. i do have to say that the toilet paper wasn’t folded or anything it looks just used from the last guest and the kettle still had water in it and looked gross. it’s great location but it’s rare to have a quiet moment there’s always something going on (we didn’t mind though but it’s something to consider if you’re a light sleeper). we stayed for two nights and were there for oxford not a luxurious hotel room so it was good enough! overall happy with our stay. great place to stay if you’d rather spend more money on food/things to do than a room you’re just sleeping in.
