Booked for two days 12th and 13th July the previous day, Did not receive any link until called and checked in the morning of 12th. Even after providing selfies and proofs still no instructions until mid day. called and I was reassured will be sent immediately. Until 10pm on 12th July received nothing. As too late for check in called back and after providing details several times again only finally sent the entering instructions. No explanation. I have requested refund for the first night as it was too late to come for check in after a busy long shift at the hospital. No reply yet . It was very bad experience and worst check in process

Very functional and clean. Pleased there was a fan to available in the searing heat. Areas that need improving: I) windows that close fully to keep out the traffic noise ii) hot water available to shower iii) BBC One available iv) Tea bags that haven’t split in the packets

Room was large and clean. Clean linens and soft towels. A fan was already provided since it was very warm in Oxford during our visit. Check in was easy and check out was even easier. Great location for walking to Cowley Rd for meals.

Rasa Sayang house is a short walk from Oxford city centre and most of the colleges. The hotel has many amenities and the self check-in worked, you just can’t show up a minute before check-in time.

Decent accommodation

Overall good stay, pillows a little hard and room was very warm, despite windows open, fan on and radiator off. Key fob system a little temperamental, espcially front door.

Convenient location, but could do with improvement

Convenient location, if you're happy with a fully self-service check-in and stay. Room is small, bathroom very small, but both functional enough. Good amenities in the room. Room was overheated, there was a ceiling fan built into the light, but only worked if the light was on, so no way of having the fan on at night while you sleep. Shower was weak, bedside light dim and buzzes.

The room was basic but had a microwave and fridge. Great for my needs, a comfortable place to sleep for a night close to the high street

Unclear instructions for car park meant my car was locked in a private car park overnight. Whilst the carpark owner was very understanding, they pointed out many people get this wrong. Rasa Sayang need to clarify their car park entrance is on the junction with Regent Street. Guest house was very basic and a bit tired; but clean and OK if you want a cheap(ish) bed-sit style accommodation.

This hotel met my needs. I was in Oxford doing research for two days (three night stay). The room was clean, the hotel quiet, and the property in easy walking distance of town. There was one major problem: the mattress was so worn out that I could feel the springs through the cover, and I woke up with a back ache. Renters should also be aware that the property is a renovated set of Victorian row house that are very vertical. Be prepared to lug your suitcase up two or three flights on a very narrow staircase. Finally, although I specified "pay at the property," the owners charged my card immediately. I suspect that is because there is no personal check-in. Renters are sent a code to access a box that contains a fob and room key. If that is the policy, it should be stated on the Expedia site.

Great budget option close to Bath

The guesthouse met our needs perfectly. It is simple but walking distance to Bath. We paid for the extra parking and worth it! Fan in the room helped tremendously on a hot day. The three of us had enough space, but it wasn't spacious. For the price, it was perfect!
