Birmingham Best Inn  

Weird building inside

No dining, No real bar, cold

The room I stayed in was dirty I had toenails on my carpet from a previous person that stayed , there was dust everywhere , I was kept awake by another person In the room next door until 5 in the morning banging and shouting I had no new toilet roll the bed was uncomfortable and it was the worst stay I think I have ever had .

The hotel has a lot of potential however its a little worn. The room was furnished lovely. The staff were friendly and help enough. The price I paid was ok.

My room smelt of damp and there was mould in the bathroom. The bed was very low also. The layout was confusing and was up&down lots of steps. It would not be sutable for anyone with mobility problems.

Friendly Staff, Clean room, good location

The only observation i would make; is the chairs in the room could have been comfier, and the TV could have been bigger and accessiable to be viewed from the bed.

The politeness of staff was fair and the service from the staff was ok but not great. Liked the fact it was cheap at first but you certainly get what you pay for.

I did not like the fact our room was dirty, the furniture was old, rotting and was uncomfortable. The corriders are long winded and confusing as there isn't very well sign posted. It was cold in our room, dark and the windows were not up to standard so when it rains you can't hear it full on. The had the upstairs attic so all we saw was the roof, and a broken drainage pipe that was leaking out onto the window. Didn't have a decent, kept waking up due to loud people, people having sex throughout the night. Overall i woudn't recommend the hotel especially if young children or elderly people due to dampness.

Limited but location and parking facility.

Started with being charged for paying with a debit card to unclean room, poor decor, lumpy beds (springs), questionable safety (wires taped together rather then joined correctly)

Kotrina was knowledgeable, professional friendly. The building was "fun," with many corridors, places to go. Probably typically English, but fun for an American family. Front restaturant/pub had a nice style of decoration.

Better room upkeep would be nice. Ran out of toilet paper!

It was cheap. £20 a night. The rooms were massive with seperate seated areas.

The rooms were dark and dingy, i had to boil the kettle in order to have a hot bath, the curtains were not very good. But at £20 a night, i did'nt expect the ritz. For workmen who just need a cheep bed for a few nights & somewhere to wash it's ok. But I would'nt want to take the Mrs there.

The location of the Hotel was good. It was easy to get to. The staff were really good & friendly upon arrvial. The rooms were a good size and had character.

The breakfast which is supplied by a seperate entity to the hotel was very poor, I would recommend that you look for breakfast elsewhere. Even the hotel staff were embarassed about the breakfast offering we had.

It's Weirdness!

Very cheap was the best bit - worked nicely on an undergrad budget. The reception staff were also really friendly. Good size of room - better than student accommodation!

I'd read the other reviews online, so I was sort of dreading it - many of the things in the reviews were true, but I didn't have as horrific a time as some of them! There was a bit of a chocolate bar wrapper left on the floor, and exposed sharp points on the floor, the window catch fell off in my hand and the lack of ability to turn the radiator off kind of sucked - it helped that I was expecting worse!

Price

Place had seen better days?

Excellent value for money with friendly,welcoming staff. Ideally situated for transport links into the city centre and all local amenities.

No bedside lamp!
