stained carpet musty smell

the staff were helpful enough at least they pointed me to the nearest coffee shop.

i was a bit put off by the stained carpet in the hallway it looked like someone spilled something and nobody bothered to clean it up and the bathroom had this odd musty smell that lingered the whole time the shower was barely lukewarm.

Excellent Stay in Headington

spacious room electric kettle great shower

The room was spacious and well-organized. I appreciated the electric kettle in the room. The shower worked very well. I found the location convenient, with many places to eat nearby and a great pub just next door.

The sign on the high street is quite small, so the hotel is a little difficult to find.
