Diana's Bed and Breakfast

Stayed in Summertown on the first floor. Lovely room very comfortable bed . Had a good nights sleep. Plenty of wardrobe space & everything was really clean. Diana was really lovely & friendly & cooked a great breakfast. Good bus service into Oxford City they run every few minutes.

I stayed at Diane’s B&B in early May. I felt very welcome, and enjoyed my stay of 3 nights. The house was very quiet, and I felt secure,- important to me as I was travelling solo. I enjoyed the freshly cooked breakfast ( and home made yogurt), and it was a pleasure to meet Vic, Diane’s other half. Conveniently situated near to bus routes to the centre of Oxford, and with cafes, restaurants near by, this B&B is an ideal choice for the traveller.

I am so sorry to have to give a two star review as we found the owner to be a very pleasant lady.  If the room rate had been considerable lower for what was provided, we would have given it three stars but at a headline rate of up to £125 per night, we were expecting something exceptional and I'm afraid it wasn't. Also a warning,  breakfast is not necessarily included. The semi detached house has room for two cars to park. It is close to a good bus route to the city, where we were meeting friends. We had the 1st floor double en suite room which was not quite ready for our early evening arrival. It was an average sized bedroom, equipped with only the basics but did posses a huge wardrobe. The bed was comfortable and the floor and furniture was clean though the blinds and windows were not. The ensuite was small, the shower a small cubicle with a broken shower head holder and no shower furniture. We found the cistern hard to flush and the level of cleaning did not satisfy my wife.  There were missing  light bulbs in the room and the en suite. The room overlooks a small back garden. We could hear traffic from the nearby main road but noise from other rooms was not too bad. The breakfasts are served opposite the double room on a shared kitchen table in this small kitchen diner. The food was fine though drink fill ups were not offered. So, and I am sorry to say this as we liked Dianne, it is just not worth the rate charged.
