One night stay. Small but aequate sized room for what we needed. Shared, but nice bathroom, although no shower. Everything clean and welcoming. Self service breakfast with plenty of options and helpful communication from host for a smooth check in. Ideally situated for a walk into the city with a handy pay and display carpark down the end of the street.

Der Check-in war in Ordnung. Das Zimmer war auch ok. Was uns nicht gefallen hat war das Frühstück. Es gab eine Wurstsorte das war Bacon, eine Käsesorte die nicht mehr appetitlich aussah. Eine Sorte dickes Toastbrot, keine Marmelade, also wirklich wenig Auswahl. Nur Cornflakes

I loved the easy check-in process at the Osney Arms. The location is great, close to the train station. Our room and the bathroom were both clean and perfect. We especially liked the breakfast options in the dining room, along with the espresso machine. I would definitely stay here again!

Comfortable room, just as advertised. Got the one with shared bath, only one other room shared. Easy self check-in. Short walk from the train.

This felt a lot more luxurious than the price tag suggested! My room on the top floor was small but perfect for a single guest, the bed was comfy with a choice of pillows, and a kettle and fan were provided in the room, plus lots of free biscuits. The bathroom was shared but only with one other room, and it was huge (and everything was scrupulously clean). The buffet breakfast was well thought through with a nice range of options, including coffee machine and herbal teas, a selection of dairy and plant milks, and a range of cereals (with clear allergy information). The self check in was smooth with clear info provided. Would definitely stay again.

Basically a ‘self-service’ B&B which is somewhat overpriced.

The carpeting in my room needed to be cleaned - to the point where I didn't want to walk on it in bare feet. The room is in desperate need of new paint. That said, the sheets and bathroom were clean, the breakfast was hearty and the breakfast room and kitchen well stocked and clean. The location was a convenient walk to the train station, laundromat, grocer, park, and restaurants.

Older accommodation but the rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The breakfast is self service but there is a really good selection of different items, various kinds of tea and a great coffee maker. We would definitely stay there again.

oxford stay

The guest house was as expected. It was all self service from check in to leaving the only staff member we saw was the cleaner. The room and bathroom were clean and tidy. The food available for breakfast was fine with a good variety Negatives were - The bathroom mirror in room 3 was cracked all across its width. The sink in the kitchen adjacent to the dinning room was dirty and the cleaner seem to wash up the breakfast dishes without cleaning it.

Poor hot

Seen better days. Could do with a clean up and a lick of paint. Breakfast was poor. Only 1 slice of cheese left. Cold meat had run out, as well as boiled eggs. Not worth the money. Mold round the shower
