Lovely stay thanks to wonderful staff, though not as quiet or restful as I would have liked.
Location is convenient for Oxford Brookes University and bus stops with routes into Oxford Centre.
On arrival, I found out breakfast is served between 8 and 10, so I would miss breakfast on the two mornings of my course, as I had to leave at 7:30 on Saturday and 7:45 on Sunday. For Saturday there was nothing to be done, but for Sunday the incredibly lovely and attentive staff made me an early packed breakfast + lunch (as an alternative to make up for missed breakfast on Saturday). I am so grateful for the staff's kindness and flexibility, arriving early on Sunday to make sure I was fed - this is why I'm rating with 5 stars.
I was only able to enjoy the delicious breakfast served on site on Monday - great variety and everything super tasty.
Room and bathroom was super clean, nicely decorated and with welcoming touches: complimentary still and sparkling water, coffee, and biscuits.
Mattress was uncomfortable, pillows were nice.
Important to know: the rooms are right above the pub and three of them (mine included) face the street. Windows are not double glazed, so it is quite noisy until 11 pm on Friday and Saturday (car noise from street, conversations, laughter, music, and doors slamming). Lack of double glazing also makes for draughty rooms, and for some cigarette smell to sneak in from outside.
