When you book for the accommodation remember to book for the en-suite one. I book the cheap one where the toilet and bathroom is outside your room cross the corridor. Avoid booking rooms in the Wolfson building and the one next to it. The toilet is tiny and you can hardly open the door because the sink will block it. No toiletry provided. And there are 3 floors without a lift. It's freezing at night since there's a gap from the balcony. The Wolfson building is very old and not habitable, it should be demolished asap. Full English breakfast is served, not bad. Remember to book a more expensive room that is en-suite.

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.
The porters are useless if you ask them a question about where you can find something, like an ATM/cash machine.
The 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.
The 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.
If I had known the conditions here at St. Anne's, I would never have come.

Friendly staff and students! Excellent food!

Ugly, bad rooms, awful food, especially for vegetarians. If you have a choice, don't go.

Very utilitarian. Horrible let furnishings with little aesthetics. Mattress does not fit nicely into bed frame. Felt as if I was floating in it.

The English breakfast is great if you like bacon, beans etc. The room was not very comfortable. The bed was too small and with iron springs that you feel while lying on it. For a conference accommodation I expected more.

The room is clean with a small balcony! The view is very beautiful. The breakfast is excellent. Staff are nice.
