The hotel is nice but I think that they could have done better with Breakfast because there was no cooked food and they could’ve put a tv remote in the hotel room. But overall I enjoyed my stay.

You get what you pay for and this was the cheapest room in Birmingham at the last minute. In the dark the area and place looked a bit sketchy when I arrived - especially being a solo woman traveller, but by morning light it was fine. Lovely staff upon check in. Very basic and small room - but clean linen, towels and spotless bathroom. Tea & Coffee facilities in room. Many reviews mention steep skinny stairs which is true, but as i didnt have luggage it was fine.

I needed an earlier check in as my concert tickets came through late which clashed with check in, but after explaining this i got access to my room early and it saved me missing out. Staff friendly and helpful. Outside was a noisy road but not terrible. Great shower, much needed after a sweaty gig and walk back.

Nice staff…poor hotel/condition

Very basic hotel, not in great condition, rooms tiny and Buidling very tired looking, capets and public areas not well kept. No mattress protector on bed, just a sheet over the mattress, cracked mirror, tiles in bathroom, no where to hang clothes and old fashioned sash windows filthy dirty and hard to open. Positives: nice staff; friendly welcome and location good. £100 for a night was a lot for this room.

Lovely Place

I only stayed one night and had to get up at 4am for a 6am flight bit my stay was nice. Ruby checked me in and she's brilliant! The pub area was nice and comfortable. I had the room on the main floor since I had a heavy suitcase and didn't want tondrag ot up the stairs.
