I was appreciative that they had a room available during graduation weekend. They are 10 minutes away from campus. All rooms are smoking so the ashtray odor is to be expected. The room phone didn't work. The outlets are so loose that the charger plug falls out. The tv shuts off intermittently every 5 to 15 minutes and it's a crapshoot how long it will be to come back on. Otherwise it was good enough to get some sleep.

I am a frequent traveller and this by far the worst please I have ever stayed. Paid for 3 nights only stayed one before switching to so some place else. Had to prepay and they are very strict about refunds. I suspect this happens a lot. DO NOT RISK staying here.

Bed had cigarette burns, sperm stains and other flaws in the sheets. Mattress what too soft. Drug dealers out front yelling the whole time. Unsafe part of town. We didn’t even stay here because of that. Don’t stay at old English inn you’ll be disappointed or die

It was adequate, room heat was very noisy, and the hair dryer was broken. Other than that it was clean and as I mentioned adequate.

For the amount of money charged, it was outrageous. Outdated is an understatement. Sink was broken, glued back together, and leaked when water ran. Windows dirty and drafty. Curtains misfit in space and not working properly. A/C knobs broken. Freezer in fridge frozen over. It will be chalked up to an experience.

Worst hotel experience I have ever had, hands down. The staff is inconsiderate and some of the rudest people I have ever met. If you have the chance to stay here, don't. If I had a car to sleep in at the time it would have been preferable.

The staff here is the rudest group of people I have ever had the misfortune of interacting with. One staff member opened my door as if she was going to walk in while I was wearing nothing but my underwear. When I complained they tried to kick me out for having an attitude.

Disappointed
I was very disappointed in the room. Only a full size bed. Broken tile, sink was all cracked, lighting was terrible, it took over 10 minutes for the water to heat up and the outside light shone through the thin curtains all night. Very outdated. You couldn't dry yourself w/the undersized and very thin bath towel. The lamp kept going off (shorting out). Not to mention over $170 a night. I would not recommend.

It is an older property but it was clean and that was the most important. Wish they had some plastic silverware or a coke machine ( broken)or food machine. Not really much to accompany the needs of customers but otherwise it was ok. Id probably come back but next time bring my own stuff.

Not a good place
I called this place for 12 hours and no one answered the phone to see if i can check in early. When i got there no one is at the front desk at the office i think its family owned and the family room or home is attached to the front desk and they have a camera in the front and i think this is how they know to come to the front desk. I remember calling/ hello like 3 times and no one came until anotger customer came in behind me and then this young man pops up and then thats when i realized they have a little hallway we cant see around the corner thats connected to a home. The room was dirty. I saw a bug near the food i had saved while i left the room. The water in the shower was all cold no hot water. My card to get into the room stopped working and i had to go back to thw office to get another one. The quilt/blanket had a hole in it and there was a light musty odor in thw room. It was not a good experience.

This was by far the worst place I have ever stayed. Pretty sure the window unit has black mold, the bathroom, i never sat on the seat and wouldn't touch the shower floor with my bare feet, however they had some delightful aloe and green tea infused facial soap. I'm positive this room was used to make illegal substances, rented by the hour at some point, and possibly used to lay low while things settle down! While it is close to University of Alabama we have decided better to sleep in our car than to stay here again. I'm generally not too picky when it cones to laying my head down for a few hours but i think i draw the line here. The gas station next door had some good chicken and biscuits! The room was really just run down and not taken care of. There were NO bugs and the sheets were clean! So that is a plus! So unless you are a flim director looking to flim the lowest part of ones life making meth living in this hotel room i would not recommend it.
