Do not book with TripAdvisor's Holiday Lettings. Renters have ZERO protection when there are…read moreproblems. Owners know you have no recourse and take full advantage, with TripAdvisor's blessing.  We booked a rental house for two weeks, and it was nothing like the photos. The house was in a state of complete disrepair. The c02/smoke detectors were going off / in an alarm state the entire time, the guest bathroom shower stopped working, doorknobs fell off doors daily, a sewage smell permeated the primary bathroom, doors and knobs were missing from closets, lightbulbs were burnt out, the keypad to unlock the only entry door was ancient and malfunctioning, the pool cleaner was broken (eventually it was removed entirely,  leaving the pool unclean and unusable the entire time), the washer/dryer were broken, etc. There's a much longer list of things that were going wrong. The rental was nothing like the photos and description on TripAdvisor's Holiday Lettings site. It was in terrible condition and very unclean. We immediately let the owners know about these problems (of which they were already aware, based on many years of poor reviews on other sites). The owners' reply was that we should vacate. We had already flown here, taken time off work, and prepaid for the rental entirely. No attempt or offer was made to address any issues. TripAdvisor was no help. The owners already have your money and know you have no recourse, so they make no attempt (or even pretense) to fix anything. This site is a scam.

Our room was clean, our breakfasts were yummy and the hosts very friendly. There is limited parking on site, but it is a short bus ride or taxi ride from the train station.

We booked the family room (one full and two twin beds) and it was very comfortable and clean and the en suite bath was a good size. The proprietors are helpful and pleasant to their guests, giving us maps of Oxford and tips on things to see and places to eat. There is a bus that stops just outside the Sportsview, but the walk to town is easy and picturesque as you cross the river. This hotel is a really good value if you are spending time in Oxford.

Breakfast was also included the next morning and the eggs benedict had a perfect sauce, not too heavy. We would definitely return.

The doors were too small for door frames, leaving huge gaps- so there was no privacy! Only good point is location as it is close to town. But everything else is reflected in the low price! The staff were unfriendly and unhelpful, not exactly what you expect from a bed and breakfast. This was in 2004, so may have changed since then, but be warned! We only chose this bed and breakfast as it was the cheapest we could find, but after staying there my boyfriend realised why it was so cheap and did not return.

It was inexpensive but the location was great and served our needs perfectly for a quick night. The room was quite large, with snacks and bottled water included. The window was a little funky as was opaque, but we got some ambient light. Be aware there is no elevator, but we literally only had backpacks, so it was fine for us. Desk service was very good. He clearly explained things to us, polite and friendly. Overall, this was a clean, very serviceable budget hotel with a great location.

My room was on the 3rd floor which was the top, so the roof sloped over my bed, making me feel a bit claustrophobic. Although i was grateful that they upgraded me from a single to a double bed, the room was still quite tiny (my bathroom was probably equal or larger size). Tub was so narrow if i were a large person I wouldn't have been able to use it. The room felt quite dated. Sadly, the water kettle, tea and refrigerator were hidden in a cabinet and I didn't discover them til the last day. I wish someone had told me they were there. Breakfast (if you pay for B/B) is downstairs in the restaurant. It's nicely done but a bit on the pricey side.

Location - well located about 10 mins out of the city centre, be warned a taxi from the train station costs you a tenner. Buses run right past, you can get and 8 or a 9 that drop you pretty much at the door. It's in a good area, turn right to head into the town and left to head up to a variety of shops, restaurants and pubs. The area is really nice and you feel safe walking along. It's walking distance from the 2 main hospitals. The owner/staff - absolutely delightful, nothing was too much trouble at all. They were so helpful. You can pay in advance online too. They respond quickly to email enquiries and are just lovely to deal,with. The room- I was staying in a double room to the side of the house. It was super quiet and although it wasn't huge (what do you need a huuuuge room for anyway you only sleep,in it) it was just lovely, newly decorated and furnished with a flat screen telly that has access to sky movies!! As well as lots of other channels. The en suite was clean and the shower didn't overflow when I used it. The water flow wasn't amazing but it still did the job. There were little shampoos and shower gels which were a godsend as I'd forgotten mine. You get complimentary water and borders biscuits in your room as we'll as the usual tea, coffee, hot chocolate etc. oh and the hair dryer was a proper one, I didn't have to hold a button to keep it on. The breakfast (the important bit) - I often avoid eggs unless I know they are free range, these were from a local farm and cooked how I wanted. The sausages are from a local butcher and were delicious. The dining room has an almost cafe like vibe to it. Neutrally decorated with the breakfast menu on a big blackboard on the wall and you can choose what you like. You get a decent sized pot of tea or fresh filter coffee as well as some fresh fruit, croissants and cereal etc. I have recommended this b&b to my work and will definitely stay again, I had a brilliant nights sleep on the super comfy bed
