I had a decent stay overall at Oyo Lonsdale Guest House, with a prime location making it easy to explore Oxford. The staff, particularly Anthony, were super friendly and helpful throughout my visit. However, my room had some issues like a somewhat uncomfortable bed and a bit of wear and tear, which brought the experience down a notch.

My Standard Double Room was quite spacious and clean, but the bedding was not as comfortable as I had hoped. It felt like an older mattress, which might not suit everyone’s taste. Although the room was well-lit and enjoyable, it definitely showed signs of age.

Service

The service was a highlight for me. Anthony was really helpful right from the start, providing useful info about the area. Also, the breakfast staff were very pleasant, which added to the overall warm experience.

Location

The location is spot on! With a bus stop right outside, it was super easy to hop on a bus to Oxford city centre. Plus, I was close to some nice grocery stores and coffee shops, which was really convenient.

Dining

6.0

Breakfast was a bit hit or miss for me. While it was an intercontinental style with some decent options, I was hoping for a more substantial selection. It was good enough to get me going for the day, but not something I'd rave about.

Facilities

6.0

The facilities were okay, but there were definitely some points that could use improvement. The bathroom had some mould issues, and a hook for towels would have been nice. Still, it was clean and had good tea and coffee facilities.

The location was pretty convenient for getting into Oxford, although the facilities could use a bit of sprucing up. The shower in my room had some issues, and the breakfast options weren't exactly impressive. Overall, it offered good value for money, but there were definitely areas that could use improvement.

Rooms

The room had a cozy vibe, but the shower was clogged, which was a bit of a letdown. I'd expect a better-maintained space for the price.
