Very good value for the price. Helpful owner. Safe parking on drive and a short walk to catch a bus into Oxford - also convenient for Park and Ride.

This was advertised as bed and breakfast. But when we arrived we were told they don’t do breakfast. And when we arrived they was no tea and coffee facility provided. I booked a twin room but they have crammed 3 beds in the room which made it so tight to move around. Nothing like the picture advertised. I am absolutely furious as when I got back from my venue they was space to park. The full car park had more cars parked than room they had. So I decided not to stay and drove home. This is an absolute disgrace to call this a B &B as it look more like an HMO or hostel. I will not recommend this to anyone especially for the price I paid I could have stay in a cleaner hotel with breakfast and tea and coffee provided. I will lodge a complaint.

We have upgraded you to a bigger room which you have liked and appreciated as well. We have given you small kettle, coffee, and sugar for your room although there is a big kitchen with all facilities. As you have insisted us to cancel the booking due to non breakfast and no coffee in the room, we have given you 10 in cash for breakfast and coffee although your booking was without breakfast. There was sufficient parking inside the driveway, also you could park on road in front of the property but there was no call or text for this parking matter on that night.We are very sorry for any inconvenience.

Not a B&B, more like a workers hostel. My room almost attached to kitchen - v noisy. Bring your own food

Dear Sir, Apologies for any inconvenience caused but we have no control over the online booking by the workers or officers. Also we are currently not offering/serving breakfast which is clearly mentioned in our listing starting from the Covid-19 pandemic. We are sorry but hope to offer you better service in your next booking. Kind regards KG Oxford B&B

As basic as it comes.
On arrival at Oxford Bed and breakfast I was offered a code for the main door and my room, 7. On entering my room I was dismayed to find the room around the 2 single beds was very limited, no bedside tabke, no kettle or amenities, a fridge, an a wardrobe with no hangers.. I thought id watxh some TV, so switched the wall plug on and was greated with loud Radio 1, so I naturally reached for the remote.. gues what? No Batteries.. Luckily I had a set, which i took with me when i left... at this point i rang the absent landord to tell them about the missing Batteries but was not called back.. very poor service. I was staying for 3 nights, which I gradually got used to.. Dont expect any shower gel or soap to be left in the bathroom, because you’ll be disappointed.. I'll leave it there.

Keyless entry to this converted house and our room. Very plain and not at all luxurious but totally fine. Really liked that we had a fridge in our room and that we had access to the kitchen meaning we could use the microwave. I'd describe it as functional.

We found our visit disappointing. The room was fairly clean although the shower needed more cleaning around the door area and clearly the skirting board behind the bed hadn’t been cleaned for a while. We thought it strange that cups tea/coffee were provided in the room but no kettle. The little milks (long life) were off - in fact completely solid. There was a central ceiling light without a shade and then 10 spot lights which made it very bright but no bedside light. The fridge was a bonus, the towels were lovely and the beds comfortable . The bath mat and toilet mat we didn’t like at all and because of the colour (brown) worried they weren’t clean so didn’t use them. The main entrance and room doors are on a code system but how often are they changed - could previous guests enter the building when they hadn’t booked? Breakfast - never been to a B&B where you made breakfast yourself but understand the business model. I think the quality of the bread could have been better or at least a choice of white and brown. A few pastries would have been a good addition as it is advertised it as a continental breakfast. The bin was filthy. When we got back to the B&B at 9.30pm we both wanted a cup of tea. The milk in our room was off and there was no milk in the fridge in the kitchen which we thought was a bit mean - how much does a pint of milk cost? I would not recommend this property to family and friends. This business cuts costs all the way.
