Great, quirky little place in an excellent location. Don't expect a brand new hotel but for a very old town house it exceeded our expectaions.

Centrically located. Nobody at the reception when check-in so the instruction was given over the phone. We stayed the Yellow room and it was small and tilted which made me sick. It was dump and smelly.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Clearly needs some TLC to bring it back to standard, wall power sockets hanging loose, 'shower' is a 1 pint jug, door hooks unsecure. Generally just a bit tatty. And the bed has one of the most uncomfortable mattresses I've ever slept on.

The room did not have an additional safety lock in the door and did not have a shower (only a bath). Check-in was also difficult as there was nobody available when I arrived so I had to call and check in via phone.

Location wise it’s very good, just few minutes walk from the tourist attractions. The room is okay, not thoroughly cleaned and there’s a leak on the wall coming from upstairs.

The location is amazing but thats where it ends. It could be fantastic with some imagination and investment but to have to use a bathroom on another floor just isn't viable in this day and age. The decor was tired and the whole thing felt unloved.

Excellent communication & check in. Lovely warm spacious room, ensuite shower room/toilet with shower gel. Very comfortable bed and space to sit in front of TV. Smart TV, kettle & tea/coffee/hot chocolate provided (+milk& sugar). Lovely quiet street, very peaceful amongst the old buildings and looking across to one of the college gardens. Lots of interesting places to walk to within 5 minutes, colleges, museums and also many lovely restaurants and cafes nearby. I didn't have time to walk to the river but that looks lovely & there are boat trips.
