Ali Inn in Oxford

Room was clean and comfortable. Typical 3-star accommodation, and Abdul, the manager, was a helpful and courteous host. Best part was that Ali Inn is in the heart of Oxford, close to bars, restaurants and all attractions. Highly recommended for value-for-money and convenience.

The room was nice and clean. Super nice area to be in Oxford super convenient! But there was this intense and strange smell as soon as one enters the reception. The downstairs smelled bad. But the room did not have any of the smell and was fine.

It's a great location right in the centre of Oxford. But this also means it's very noisy. Had to have the window open after a hot day, but there was noise from the nearby pubs until 2am, and noise from the loud AC unit in the building across the road.

Everything in the room was clean, and based on other reviews as I expected. The front is a little hard to find in the dark though. The location is excellent for the centre of town and lots of food and transport options right outside. I didn't actually see anyone who worked there the whole time, so this is not a place to stay if you need assistance. The room was noisy from outside, but earplugs sorted this out.

Central location and room had everything needed... en-suite, good shower and tea/coffee making facilities. However, tea/coffee not topped up and no-one on the premises to ask. We had no sleep as the theatre was next door and the stage crew were dismantling and loading lorries from 11pm until 6.30am!! No privacy in the room if cirtains were opened and neighbours were able to look directly into the shower... we hung a towel over the glass for privacy!

Noisy street but good room

Room was comfortable and both room and en-suite were clean, and the stay was very good value for money. However, my room faced the street and even with the window closed I was disrupted several times during the night from noises outside (e.g. waste collection) so if anyone is a light sleeper I would suggest requesting a room not facing the street! Obviously the hotel itself is limited in their ability to rectify this.

Good Location

The receptionist was nice and the location is very good but the wifi did not work. The main issue was that my room and the bathroom were not very clean. The bathroom also had a strong odour so I needed to keep the bathroom door closed as it made me feel sick.

when people say no frills they mean no frills. 2 towels, no small ones, shampoo no conditioner. i do have to say that the toilet paper wasn’t folded or anything it looks just used from the last guest and the kettle still had water in it and looked gross. it’s great location but it’s rare to have a quiet moment there’s always something going on (we didn’t mind though but it’s something to consider if you’re a light sleeper). we stayed for two nights and were there for oxford not a luxurious hotel room so it was good enough! overall happy with our stay. great place to stay if you’d rather spend more money on food/things to do than a room you’re just sleeping in.

The room had not been cleaned. It’s an old property with no double glazing and opposite a pub and next to a theatre so it was very noisy all night. The tv has not been working for a long time - maybe years looking at other reviews.No Wi-Fi too. Very poor effort for such a great location.
