Awful night's lack of sleep...

Liked: The location of the hotel; the staff were all excellent
Disliked: The bed was terrible. It was tiny in size, but in particular so hard as to cause a lost night's sleep. It was truly awful. I measured the mattress and looked up mattress sizing as this is not a size I had ever seen in Hilton, Marriott, Belmond or any luxury hotel. It was "small double" size. This is the next size up from a "Euro single". Apart from being miniature, it was the rock hard, clearly "economical", and remarkably uncomfortable mattress that prevented sleep. If you want to effectively sleep on the floor, then choose this hotel. The floor has more space.I visit Oxford often and stay at Jeremy Mogford's sister hotel, "The Old Bank Hotel" routinely. This has always been exemplary. I therefore did not expect such a bad experience at The Old Parsonage hotel. I cannot believe Jeremy Mogford has approved this bed. All the staff were excellent, but effectively lack-of-sleeping on the floor means I shall never return.
