Qian was the best host manager that I've ever had: he was very helpful regarding my check-in and check-out, and replied all my messages as soon as possible. The room was clean and tidy, the bed was comfortable. …

The property is a good twenty minutes from the center of Oxford. The value for money is not particularly satisfactory, I stayed in a room for 70 pounds and it looked like a hovel room, with a very small bathroom, bare and cold. There is no reception. If you find better, forget this place.

Super nice room in a small town house. Nice, clean and neat. I had room 5 which is a family room facing the street. The windows remove all road noise. Super nice room. …
