The owners seem to have good intentions. The guest house is located within easy reach. Single room has a separate private bathroom outside on the corridor. It is nowhere mentioned in the description and when promted the owners say it is everywhere mentioned, even on their own site. When showed that it did not mention this, owners got defensive and said we had to contact booking.com

Lovely owners very helpful and make you feel at home. Lovely clean room and facilities at a super price. Breakfast plentiful and superbly cooked fresh to order (great idea to order the previous night,so no waiting for it to be served in the morning). Highly recommend this lovely guesthouse.will be back next time I am in the birmingham area.

Owners are experienced and very friendly. Breakfast choices are good and service is personal. Car Parking is limited and somewhat awkward.

Marlene & Michael work very hard to make everyone feel welcome. It was lovely staying there as a single person and it was also lovely staying there with my family. It was ideal for the NEC as it is on the bus route (number 900) & only 15mins away. The shower in the single room (right at the top of the house) was very weak (although it was hot). Baths in the family room are discouraged.

Traditional b&B. Family run. Excellent in all aspects. The en suite was a bit of a squeeze but it didn't realty cause any problems.

Hosts were fabulous couldn't have made us feel more welcome and was spotlessly clean. Breakfast was lovely Looking slightly dated inside. Shower water pressure in top room quite low but to be expected in a top floor conversion.

The friendliness of the owners, Mike and Marlene, was a big plus for me. They were really nice and very down-to-earth people which meant that the atmosphere was very relaxed and informal. I even got some basic plumbing lessons from Mike :-) Our room was compact, but very clean and cosy, so suited our needs extremely well. I don't really have any major criticism of the place. One of the electrical sockets wasn't working very well, but that wasn't a big problem. Otherwise it all seemed fine to me.

Both Michael & Marlene are lovely people who do their very best to ensure your stay at the Central Guest House is as pleasant as possible. The facilities are both clean, functional and above all they all work! And of course their breakfasts are fantastic. Thank you.

The Guest House was very close to bus stops so travel to the nec was very easy. We were made very welcome upon arrival and everything we needed to know was clearly explained. Breakfast was of a high English standard and presented in an extremely clean and well presented breakfast room. The bedroom was of sufficient size for 2 people and had all the facilities you could ask for from dvd tv to iron and trouser press.

The owners, Marlene & Michael, were like extended family and so helpful. The location of the Guest House was only 15minutes from the nec which was great for our stay. There are multiple choices of restaurants within a 10 minute walking distance. The beds are in serious need of replacement as are the mattresses. This would be my only negative.

The owners. They were very friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast was excellent, the rooms spotless. I would definately stay here again. There is nothing I didnt like, my only point would be traffic noise in our room, however, being on a main road that it was unavoidable. I believe rooms at the back of the house are very quiet.
