Good walkable location. Busy, noisy road. Stairs very narrow. Needed to show which way to turn the handle on the room to open it.

Decent accommodation
Overall good stay, pillows a little hard and room was very warm, despite windows open, fan on and radiator off.
Key fob system a little temperamental, espcially front door.
Convenient location, but could do with improvement
Convenient location, if you're happy with a fully self-service check-in and stay.
Room is small, bathroom very small, but both functional enough. Good amenities in the room.
Room was overheated, there was a ceiling fan built into the light, but only worked if the light was on, so no way of having the fan on at night while you sleep.
Shower was weak, bedside light dim and buzzes.

A handy stop
The room was basic but had a microwave and fridge. Great for my needs, a comfortable place to sleep for a night close to the high street
Unclear instructions for car park meant my car was locked in a private car park overnight. Whilst the carpark owner was very understanding, they pointed out many people get this wrong. Rasa Sayang need to clarify their car park entrance is on the junction with Regent Street.
Guest house was very basic and a bit tired; but clean and OK if you want a cheap(ish) bed-sit style accommodation.
This hotel met my needs. I was in Oxford doing research for two days (three night stay). The room was clean, the hotel quiet, and the property in easy walking distance of town. There was one major problem: the mattress was so worn out that I could feel the springs through the cover, and I woke up with a back ache. Renters should also be aware that the property is a renovated set of Victorian row house that are very vertical. Be prepared to lug your suitcase up two or three flights on a very narrow staircase. Finally, although I specified "pay at the property," the owners charged my card immediately. I suspect that is because there is no personal check-in. Renters are sent a code to access a box that contains a fob and room key. If that is the policy, it should be stated on the Expedia site.
The guesthouse met our needs perfectly. It is simple but walking distance to Bath. We paid for the extra parking and worth it! Fan in the room helped tremendously on a hot day. The three of us had enough space, but it wasn't spacious. For the price, it was perfect!
Room was hot stuffy grosse and underwhelming. I disnt like the bed nor the bathroom facilities. It seemed the room hadn't been opened in months. Musty and moldy smell throughout the room. Couldnt stay for more than 10 min. In the room. Disappointed
Room was basic but clean and did what was needed. Only comment was on hottest night of the year no aircon or fan so didn’t sleep well but 2 mile walk to where I needed to be so good location for city centre
Great location for anyone wanting to stay close to the city centre. Good facilities in the room including a fridge freezer and microwave. Mattresses could do with be replaced but still enjoyed our stay.
the room was clean and quiet. the keys were easy to get and the room had everything you needed for a 1 night stay in oxford. This obviosuly isn't 5 star luxury but it was comfortable, clean and conveniently placed for all our needs.
