Great stay, shame about all the noise during the night and the next morning. Being on the top 4th floor was okay but with no lifts working!! My dad and his friends all over 65 years struggled several times up and down. Not happy and did impact on our stay. Clean & adequate rooms though.

Felt sorry for those higher up. Stayed out of order all weekend. Room was clean. Shower and toilet compact but servicable. The 'bed'... More

So, my friend and I were looking for somewhere reasonably priced, we came across this hotel and it was advertised as easy to get to, in Birmingham city centre, within walking distance of the train station. It was on the outskirts of the city centre, we had to drag our luggage with us. It was in a really rough, out... More

Good value for this price. The process of check in and check out is quite convenient. Just 15 minutes walk from railway station. The shower water is hot enough. Although no kettle is provided, hot water can be collected downstaris.

Honestly, I was extremely dubious of this hotel before we arrived. My partner and I paid £20 between us for one night here, by waiving our cancellation/refund rights for their "Happy-20" deal. For such a lot price, I will admit, I was not expecting brilliance. However, I am pleased to say that I was totally wrong on this score! Upon... More

The location and value for money is great. You can walk to the Bullring, New Street Station etc. It is basic but functional. There does seem to be a problem wtih the lifts - they are frequently out of service.
