No.192 Oxford

Clean

Room was very clean and comfortable; the check in process was easy. Really nicely located for a short walk into the main city. As frequent visitors to the area, this was a great find!

Clean and spacious room. Was able to park on the drive, which was a massive plus.

Beautiful studio room love the ability to walk in the garden . Very clean and quiet and convenient for walking into the city would definitely stay again LM

Lovely clean rooms, comfy beds, easy check in / out. Thank you

Very convenient location and exceptionally clean and well furnished room. Self check in worked well and the team were very accommodating when I messaged or rang them. Would definitely stay here again. Most importantly the bed was very comfortable and the room was perfectly quiet!

Every thing was perfect

We really enjoyed the location of the hotel, it's easy to access the city center and there are great cafes and pubs nearby. It's a self check-in hotel, but the procedure is very easy, we had no problems with that. Also the staff is very nice and kind and it was easy to send them a message and they've replied very quickly. The room was very nice and clean, it had great water pressure in the shower and the bed was comfortable. The only downside for us was that the front door to the property and the doors to the rooms were banging very loudly, if you didn't hold them while closing. We were staying in the room on the first floor just next to the entrance, so we were woken up many times by those doors.

Staff very friendly however did not respond to various issues and no phone number to reach them. Larger rooms might be better. Not sure if I would stay there again.

Very good value for money. Clean and comfortable place. Staff very helpful. I called them on the phone for a query and they answered immediately and were really helpful.

Good location for a short walk in to Oxford. Ideal for a few days away with plently to do in Oxford. We stayed in the studio at the back which looked out on the garden, had a small kitchen, and a bath. Would reccomend staying in either of the back rooms which have outside seating. You can hear people coming and going, and doors as they are heavy in the property, but this did not affect our stay or disturb my sleep. This might be because we stayed at the back of the property on the lower ground floor. Check-in was easy using the kiosk, you will recevie a code a week before your stay which you type onscreen and your keycard is generated. The property are then contactable via Expedia, an email, or by phone with prompt responce times.

The Iffley Road location was handy for both Cowley Road and the towpath. It takes a half-hour or so to walk into the city centre and there is a good bus service if you don't fancy walking. Nothing actually wrong with no.192 but this was my first experience of staying at an un-staffed hotel and I've realised what the disadvantages are. * Checking in was frustrating, involving a machine that wasn't very user-friendly * If you're staying for more than one night, you don't get your room cleaned and you can't get fresh towels or more teabags or whatever * You can't easily report any issues - in our case, a leaking sink slowly flooding the bathroom floor * It doesn't feel as safe - there was a guy hanging around on the landing outside our room very late at night. I reported the sink via email after we left and got a promise they'll look into it. But I don't think I'd choose to stay in a hotel with no reception desk or staff again.

Very nice hotel. Great communication before and during our stay. There’s not a front desk, but there is a very easy check in process. The hotel was very clean, comfortable and in a nice area. If I ever come back to Oxford, would definitely stay again.

It's a clean, quiet and comfortable accommodation, literally at a stone's throw from the bus stop to reach the town centre. I dealt with the staff only via email, but they were very nice and helpful.

We enjoyed staying here. We chose this location because It was walking distance to our friends house. Although it was on the other side of tge touristy area. Location worked for us. It was walking distance from the main bus stop (St Clements Stop C) - which is where buses from Heathrow Airport typically stop. The place was clean and quiet. There were several other rooms nearby but all guests were respectful. The location is also away from the hustle bustle of Oxford. There is no elevator and we had to take our luggage up the stairs (which we knew). Check in was easy with a Kiosk. We did have an issue with WiFi but were compensated for that by the host. Rooms are small but serve the purpose. Bathroom was clean with a shower (This was absolutely appreciated because lot of places have bathtub that you have to climb in to shower which can be problematic and sometimes dangerous for elderly in the group). We appreciated the standing shower. Traffic in Oxford can be quite backed up so we do recommend walking (even buses can take longer than walking) . Bus stops can be out of service and one would not know unless you download the Oxford Bus app. We walked to the area with the ethnic foods on Cowley Road. There is great variety available . In general area felt very safe and great location with kids to stay

We were recently in Oxford for vacation and a summer course. We booked the studio with kitchenette. The good: the rooms are clean and recently remodeled. The location: The location is a very healthy walk from downtown Oxford. Bus is readily available. The exterior is not what I expected—the building and especially those around it looked worn. The challenges: 1. Staff members are not on site. They reach out and suggest you email if you need service. 2. We emailed several times with very spotty responses. 3. There was nothing to make coffee. One of the main reasons I booked this room was the kitchenette and terrace so we had a nice place to make and eat breakfast and coffee. There were pots and pans, etc but only instant coffee. I reached out and requested a pour over or French press twice but was declined and then ignored. 3. The hallways or other part of the building seemed to be air conditioned but our room was terrifically hot, even in the basement. Several afternoons it reached around 30 degrees Celsius because it was a direct western exposure and it remained too hot to sleep at night. A note in the room said to reach out if the room was uncomfortable and so I did. Again, I did not even receive a response. The management states that they want good reviews but even this morning when I listed these concerns in a final communication—you guessed it—no response!

Property was clean and easy to find and access. We had 2 rooms booked and the 2nd room was quite small. Was a little challenging to get additional towels/paper supplies. Good walking proximity to city attractions and food.

La chambre bien que petite est confortable. La salle de douche est minuscule mais cela va pour un cours séjour. L'équipement est complet. Toutefois il n'y a pas de miroir au dessus du bureau ce qui ne permet pas l'utilisation d'un sèche cheveux. Il y a bien une grande glace en pied dans le couloir mais pas de prise de courant. Je suggère de placer un miroir pivotant devant la télévision ce qui permettrait les deux fonctions. Le couloir reste allumé toute la nuit et comme la porte d'entrée n'est pas entourée par un joint, il y a en permanence une lumière de veilleuse dans la chambre. De même les rideaux ne sont pas assez occultants et le jour m'a réveillé de bonne heure. J'ai résolu la difficulté en portant un masque et j'ai très bien dormi au calme dans cette chambre refaite à neuf. L'environnement est agréable toutefois le jardin sur le devant est un peu à l'abandon et mériterait quelques arbustes à fleurs comme on en voit beaucoup dans Oxford. Je déconseille la chambre du rez de chaussée coté rue à cause de la rangée de poubelles sous la fenêtre. La encore un petite haie de buissons bien taillés pour cacher les poubelles serait la bienvenue.

The room was small but comfortable, with some thoughtful amenities like a kettle and teas. The neighborhood is very interesting and there are good cafes nearby.

Generally everything was fine but the shower smelled moldy. Also there was no place to put down anything in the bathroom
