YHA Oxford Reviews

A large hostel and seemingly very busy all year round. Tidy and well set up. Easy walking distance to the train station and several lounging areas. Downsides: I was staying for 3 nights, and was asked to change rooms each night due to other group bookings; despite booking 2-3 weeks in advance. And found the hostel staff quite surly and brief to deal with.

Very clean and safe hostel. Stayed in a 6 bed female dorm. There were showers and toilets in te room. Beds were very comfortable. Very nice kitchen and library. Good location.

Great place to stay ... would defo recommend.

Out short stay at the YHA was very pleasant, except for the fact that the other guests on our floor were rather noisy, and we even had one of them knocking on our door by mistake at 11 o'clock in the night. However, the staff and the hostel were very nice.

The staff were friendly and very accomodating. The beds were more comfortable than some hotels I have stayed in and the rooms were a good size. They had food right on the premises to buy and also a big kitchen where you could store and cook your own food. I was more impressed with the place than I thought I would be and am grateful that I stayed there.

great stay this time.

Ear plugs should be provided as some guests snore

nice place but way too big

Compared to the other two hostels in town which I stayed at this is the by far the best value for money, but my god the staff on reception were poor. The most unenthusiastic i've come across, I actually felt unwelcomed.

The place is well taken care of, the staff comply and the facilities are good. The walls are too thin so you can hear any whisper during the night, but the other guests were respectful in terms of noise. Ideal for backpackers. Right next to the train station (can be noisy because it's too close), 10 minutes walk to town centre. Clean kitchen and clean toilets. Recommended

Wonderful location.Secured and helpful staff. But there was serious shortcoming in the particular room I stayed in.

I arrived late evening to find the room I was booked in to in a state of chaos.One guest had their mattress on the floor and the only unoccuoied bed had no bedding.The reception staff were efficient in allocating me a new room but the bed was unmade and the batroom not very clean.After a long journey the last thing I wanted was tio have to start making up a bed the self catering kitchen was filthy The recption staff were well informed and were able to help me with my enquiry about London YHA

if there is private room for a family, i feel it would be better. Because it is also good for children and parents to experience this different culture in hotels. Also it adds to your variety of room type.

If you're not a YHA member, you have to pay 3 pounds more

The hostel is in an idea location for guests using public transport The bedroom had a dreadfull smell and the self catering kitchen was filthy

A very nice place.

The staffs were cold in attitude, not friendly at all. The self-catering kitchen is so small that no more than 3 person can use it at the same time. We had to find other space to eat while other people need to use the kitchen. I wouldn't stay there again.

A bit expensive, but apart from that it's a very good choice.

Best location. Nice staff ESP the deputy manager guy, seems he's there 24 hours. Just a bit old, I don't like the bed.

We were disapointed with this hostel, stayed at much nicer places for less. Fire alarms kept going off which was incredibly annoying
