Too much reliance on having to have smart phones to receive emails with codes on. To get the key took four attempts on the pad. Key takes moving it about before it opens the door. I prefer to have a person at a reception to help with any problems instead of someone on the end of a email or telephone.

Great location for anyone wanting to stay close to the city centre. Good facilities in the room including a fridge freezer and microwave. Mattresses could do with be replaced but still enjoyed our stay.

We recently stayed at Rasa Sayang and found it to be a good value for the money in a convenient location. The beds were comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. While the chairs around the table were quite cheap and not very comfortable, the bathroom was adequate and met our needs. Overall, despite a few minor drawbacks, our stay at Rasa Sayang was pleasant. Considering the good location and reasonable price, we would stay here again.

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.

Very very noisy, no soundproofing at all

Very noisy, can hear all talking and movement from the rooms above and around. wafer thin walls, very creeky floorboards in room above, thought they were going to come through the ceiling, more like a hostel than a hotel, couldn't sleep here at all!!

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.

Horrible experience

The room we were given was not even remotely like the photos on the Hotels website. We stayed on the ground floor, the bed was terrible, the spring mattress was completely broken, we couldn't rest. In the bathroom the water from the shower came down in drops there was no power socket to attach any type of accessory. The window of the house was equipped with a non-comprehensive curtain so from 6 in the morning a lot of light came in. There was no place to put your bags comfortably. Practitioner of a housing disaster and paid very dearly. Not recommended even for one night. Change the system my dears.

The room was a bit mouldy and smelt musty. The ceiling is so thin you can hear everything in the room directly above which is unfortunate if the people above you start jumping around and moving furniture at 3am. The TV didn't work. The bed was uncomfortable. Check in at 4pm and check out by 11am is a rip off. I wouldn't recommend it and definitely wouldn't stay here again.

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
