Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Not at all like images on web site, this is a local pub with a collection of two tier box like rooms at the rear of the car park. These are accessed via some grotty algae covered fire escape metal stairs. The pub had that stale food smell on entering, indicative of dirty carpets and soft furnishings. On entering the bedroom we were met with overpowering heat the windows were closed and an electric radiator was on full, it was literally like a sauna managed to open the window which had mould on the frame, but decided it would take too long to cool down, it was a very plain motel type room. Taking everything into consideration I decided to hand back the keys and did not stay. We could not understand how on earth we had chosen to book this terrible “hotel”, so checked the web site for comparison and still feel the impression given is far removed from what is actually on offer.

Helpful, friendly staff, very convenient for hopping on to a bus straight to the centre of Oxford (far better than taking the car), convenient, less than a 10 minute walk on a quiet lane to North Oxfordshire Crematorium, spacious room, good breakfast and Black Sheep on hand pump!
