The hotel rooms had a slight unpleasant smell in the bathroom upon arrival, but they were very spacious with a nice touch of two cans and tea/coffee. The service was amazing, with fantastic, friendly, kind, professional, helpful, and considerate staff. The location was convenient for our visit, but surrounded by main roads requiring a vehicle for travel. The dining experience was average and not worth the price. The facilities were okay.

The hotel rooms are of good, clean standard, much quieter than expected for a motorway services, but some had an awful smell. The service is professional and friendly, with pleasant staff. The location is convenient for business visits but not ideal for a holiday trip. The dining experience lacked variety and quality. Overall, a decent stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel offers a good night's sleep with areas showing water damage. The room rates are £81 per night, excluding breakfast but with a complimentary newspaper. The decor might give off a 'prison' vibe with all-white paint, basic furnishings, and simple tile bathrooms.

The hotel is conveniently located just outside the motorway at the Welcome Break service area, offering easy access to Oxford city center. Ideal for a quick stopover or access to the nearby hospital.

The dining options were limited and not value for money, with disappointing food quality. However, they offered home-made pastries.

The hotel provides standard facilities but lacks dining variety, and the dining experience was not up to par.

The hotel rooms were spacious and included a fridge, but they didn't match the photos, appearing worn and not as clean as expected. The gym facilities were inadequate for regular visitors. On the positive side, the hotel's location was perfect for a drive to London Heathrow, but a bit far from Oxford. The dining experience was overpriced and underwhelming. The service varied from rude behavior at reception to friendly and helpful encounters.

Initially, the rooms seemed good but upon closer inspection, they had a cigarette smell and only one towel for two people, despite the reception's unresponsiveness. Additionally, there was a persistent sewage odor. The service was mixed, with staff being accommodating but overwhelmed, especially with handling complaints. The hotel's location near the M40 and motorway service area made it convenient, but some lighting issues were noted. The dining experience was varied, with some fresh options alongside buffet items that seemed stale. Despite some flaws, the hotel offered quality products in dining.

The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were average, with limited plug points and a room that had a urine smell. However, the temperature was comfortable despite being hot outside, and there was an offer to change rooms. The service was satisfactory overall but waiting for a promised refund was a downside. The location was convenient with easy access to amenities but having no breakfast due to large parties staying was a letdown. The dining experience was unsatisfactory with a high price for what was offered. The facilities were standard, with nothing exceptional noted.
