My husband and I expected a shared room but were given singles on the top floor. We are travelling with heavy suitcases and had to carry them up 3 flights of stairs. In addition the college outsources its laundry provision and takes no responsibility for a terrible service that effectively steals your money. Beware!
Stayed for a few nights and it was OK. The staff were friendly and the grounds were huge. The rooms were baking hot however, and the doors in the bathroom were very stiff. Little things, but overall, a good stay!
Don’t stay here unless you really have to. If you have to stay here, go for one of the ensuit rooms and not the single rooms. If you get put into the old Victorian building next to reception 58/60 - the worse building in the entire college, which you probably won’t if you are a normal visitor. But if you do, be prepared to suffer from poor living conditions, extremely poor sound proof it is very very loud when people even just walk in the room above you. The communal kitchen and laundry room are messy and unhygienic. In conclusion, it is just really really not worth the amount of money you pay.
The accommodations are horrid, the porters and dining staff are rude. The rooms look and feel like prison cells - unfinished brick walls, mattress, one sheet and a duvet. Industrial carpet that hasn't been replaced in decades. Desk and chair that are in such worn shape that a charity wouldn't take them. Handles on cabinets loose and coming off. You're lucky if they change the sheets once a week. Fresh towels? Maybe three times a week. Had to ask for vacuuming. Community shower is gross, mold all over the ceiling. No shelf to put soap or shampoo. Shower stall is so small that shower curtain keeps sticking to you.nThe porters are useless if you ask them a question about where you can find something, like an ATM/cash machine.nThe dining hall staff circle like vultures waiting to grab your plate from you, many times taking my food away before I even realized what had happened. I counted 9 times they tried taking my plate before I was finished. The dining hall manager was extremely rude to me when I took a place setting from an adjacent table to sit with my colleagues, demanding that I put it back and walk across the room to a different table to grab a place setting.nThe food is decent, but not worth the money you pay. They have the same old thing every morning at breakfast, but sometimes the powdered eggs are so runny it looks like porridge. They looked pained when a vegetarian asks for an alternative meal, something they can eat.nIf I had known the conditions here at St. Anne's, I would never have come.
St. Anne's is a former women's college that has had many notable alumni. Since it's newer than the other colleges, it is a bit further from Oxford City Center.nnIf you stay here as a visitor, know that the price you pay is much lower than the options in the middle of the city. However, there are some drawbacks, including small, spartan rooms and shared bathrooms. But these are all noted on the college website, so they cannot be faulted for this. Like thoughtlessly giving a one-star review for a Honda Civic for not being a Mercedes S-Class!. The rooms are good for people on a budget that just need a safe place to stay a few days. I would not recommend the place for families with infants -- there aren't elevators in most places, making it a struggle to carry strollers and large suitcases.nnTips:n- Get the ensuite bathroom option if that's available.n- Buy a bus pass for the duration of your stay, which gives you unlimited get on / get off privileges. The bus stop is within a 5-min walk from the college.n- If you're headed to Heathrow airport, catch a bus to Gloucester Green central bus station from where you could catch the direct bus to the airport.
