  A very nice place for us to stay for three nights

  Liked: Very good location nearby both of the Oxford railway station and the campus of the University of Oxford. Staffs were very nice and friendly to help us carry the heavy suitcases upstairs and downstairs.The public kitchen and common area were also very good for us to cook and drink the free coffee and cool water. We will definitely check in this hostel again in the next visit
