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!

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.

Property was central for walking to everything. Pub oppposite caused noise late at night AND we had lorries loading stage equipment from nearby theatre for 2 hours until 12.30am. This happens many times a week the roadies told us.
The walls were paper thin & the windows single glazed so not only outside noise kept us awake but other guests talking & tv on until 4am!
The price we were charged £330 for 2 nights, was not warranted.

We stayed in room 4 at Ali Inn and unfortunately had a very unpleasant experience. My wife woke up with multiple bites on her back and arm, consistent with bedbug bites. When we inspected the bed, we found several insects among the sheets.
We placed the insects in a plastic bag as evidence and went to reception in the morning to report the issue, but there was no one available at the time. We also took photos of both the bites and the insects.
This kind of situation is unacceptable, as it presents a serious health and hygiene concern. We expected better care and responsibility from the hotel.

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.

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.

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.

DO NOT STAY HERE
DO NOT STAY AT THIS HOTEL UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES
The bed had bed bugs and I was woken at midnight covered in bed bugs and bed bug bites.
The bathroom, shower head and ceiling was grimey and overall dirty.
The noise outside was very loud and I got very little sleep due to general noise and delivery drivers banging and talking.
The manager was extremely rude when I spoke to him and was SHOUTING at me down the phone when I was discussing the bed bug issue. He point blank refused to give a refund for the stay.
A terrible terrible business and management.
DO NOT STAY HERE.
