“In historic Oxford, this property merges the charm of its 16th-century origins with modern self-service conveniences, including automated check-in. While some rooms might require navigating stairs, the central location near the Museum of Oxford and the adaptable breakfast options are definite advantages. In my opinion, it's a solid choice for those who appreciate a blend of history and independence.”

The room had a remote-controlled skylight. I could open it for fresh air or close it to block out any city sounds.

Fantastic Location, Comfy Beds!

perfect location comfortable bed relaxing space prompt response

The location was perfect! It put me right in the heart of the action. The beds were so comfortable! I slept like a baby every night. I really loved the tea room. It provided a relaxing space with great coffee. I received prompt responses whenever I contacted them by phone or email, that was awesome.

The entrance was a little hard to find down a side street. It's easy to miss, so be sure to look carefully!
