Overnight in oxford
Room was just fine, basic, but just what we wanted for overnight. Its a short walk into the city centre, so great location. Parking might have been tricky, but we used Just Park for 2 full days at a hotel just down the road and it cost £12. Breakfast was not available, but plenty of great places in Oxford, so no problem there.

Fine if you sacrifice cleanliness for location
Location was great, very short walk into Oxford centre. Parking info wasn't great, most of the nearby area is permit holders only, would have used park and ride if we'd have known. Cleanliness very poor. General upkeep was also very poor, outdated decor, en-suite was in desperate need for some maintenance. Check-in poor, we were called earlier in the day to confirm the time of our arrival but still had to wait around for an hour once we arrived.

Eerie and dark in the evening
Arrived in the evening, the place was located at a rather dark section of the street. Signage was badly lit and not immediately noticable. Front porch was dark, first impression of the place was really eerie

The staff were considerate, friendly and helpful; the location is excellent and there was a full breakfast (including vegetarian); Oxford is expensive but White House View was very good value.

For the price, this room worked out fine. I had a heavy bag to get up to the third floor, and kept a window open/fan on - there isn't AC. On the other hand, it was quiet, a quick walk to city center, and clean.

Oxford is so expensive.
It was ok, its a tiny room but I was working late and getting up early so all I needed was a bed. But I am 5'7 and my feet hung out the bed. A+ for Hobbits -B for me. Still it was 64£ I'm happy.

White House
Guest House is quite nice, but room was very disappointing(room 2)! Very small, bedside light didn't work, quite a walk to the shower/toilet. Also, I paid in cash as they requested, but there was no communication, and the owner was quite rude, telling me "not to move", until he had confirmed that I had paid. I offered to pay upon arrival, but they were keen to get cash instead of card! Also, the booking said that they had wifi, but they don't!

It's fine if you're in Oxford for a short stay. I noticed some cleanliness issues with the provided glass and mug. There was rust on the towel railings. The shower's hot water is low pressure, or at least it was in my top-floor room. I could hear other guests quite audibly during the late evening. Sound dampening could be an option. A hot breakfast cost £7. It may be better getting something at one of the nearby cafes if you want better value for money.

Stay Away
Found bed bugs on my last night. Sheets were dirty when we first arrived. Room was very cold and the heat wasn't turned on. Parking was 10 minutes away. The location is good, but does not make up for the bad things.
