It was perfectly adequate for our 2 nights in Oxford. Convenient location, but no AC and the entryway needs work... smells not so nice and old mattress in there. Very nice people, let us leave our luggage until we checked in. Mattresses need replacing, could feel the springs, but again, perfectly adequate.

Good location for buses, bus stop for The John Radcliffe just over the road and the bus station just round the corner.
Plenty of eating places, pubs etc on a busy road but didn't hear any noise even with the window open.
Room was clean and tidy, plenty of coffee, tea and biscuits and a fan which was needed.
If I was being picky the over blanket ( which wasn't needed in summer looked like it had just been thrown into the wardrobe, instead of neatly folded but extra pillows were supplied.)

Upon arrival and viewing our rooms; we actually chose to forfeit our prepaid booking and paid a much higher rate for last minute booking at another hotel. No air conditioning, no elevator and one of our rooms was on the 4th floor (difficult with luggage), the smell was stale and the rooms were in bad shape.

Wonderful price and location. Very clean and basic set-up though kettle and tea/coffee provided. The main negative was that the room was a sauna as there was no air conditioning. They had kindly provided a fan but during the UK heatwave this was insufficient. Having said that, if the temperature was normal I think we'd have had a very comfortable stay. Staff were lovely and super location.

The location is great, almost right opposite the New Oxford Theatre and only a few minutes walk from a Greene King and Wetherspoons.

The bed was decent, but the place is really dated. The ceiling light in the bathroom had water inside, which is not safe. You could not open the closet since the door faced the night table, and the TV was no bigger than an A4 paper. In the morning (6;30AM), there was no one to return the keys to. On the plus side, it's on a busy street with restaurants and pubs around. It was clean, so if you're looking for a bed and a cheap night, it's okay, I suppose. However, for the price, I would have expected a bit more.

After the mixup of the fact there are two George Hotels almost side by side, my actual stay was exactly what I needed.

Clean & warm room, working TV, tidy bathroom (although not really suitable if you've \"gained weight\" as getting in the shower was a bit tight!!), comfortable bed...

At the end of the day that's all you really need from a hotel room! A space to sleep

Brilliant price for its location too!

Only down side is that there are no lifts...but at least I added to my step count!

Normally we would not have accepted the room, but we arrived late and were gone by first thing in the morning so we took the room we had paid for in advance. Note to self - never ever pay in advance for a room. (and Orbitz won't back you if a hotel is unsatisfactory)
The \"hotel\" more like a small boarding house, has no elevator or reception on entry, so we had to lug our suitcases up a large set of steps. The room has 2 steps in it which can be dangerous in the middle of the night.

We needed a converter plug since we're from the States and were more than surprised, and relieved, that the reception was able to provide one.

I didn't think I'd be staying in a hotel where you have to use a key to open the door. Also, I booked a room with a bathtub, but the reality is that it has only a small, cramped shower room. There were no disposable slippers, so I had to walk barefoot on very dirty carpets after showering. It made me very uncomfortable. Perhaps the only advantage of the hotel was its proximity to the city centre.

For a quick one night stay in Oxford where most time was spent outside the hotel, I would recommend this place. The windows were doubled so that helped reduce the noise but at times the sound from the nightclub below were very audible (and could also feel the vibrations). I personally did not care. One small issue was that as my friend and I tried to check-out at 8:45, the front desk area was locked. Thankfully my friend had international calling set up so we could call the number on the door and then the front desk person came up. We left our luggage there but there was no real security or formal process to collect it. The luggage was fine but someone easily could have taken the bag without the management really caring.

S.T

I was there for 2 nights; Tuesday and Wednesday. The hotel rooms are very old and mine was very dusty; if you have very bad allergies to dust you probably wouldn't be able to stay in the room very long. The hotel is also on top of a club that is open every night, so you can hear loud music from 10pm to about 2am. There also isn't an elevator but they do have some rooms on the same floor as reception. There is very limited outlets and no usb options - the receptionist was super nice and helpful and let me borrow one for the 2 nights. Probably the worst was that in the washroom there was hair everywhere; a little in the shower and a lot on the floor. There were clumps of them next to the toilet and behind the door.
The location is fantastic tho, so depending on what you are doing in Oxford this could work.
Reception was fantastic and super helpful. 5 stars to them!
