    As cheap accommodation it was fine but I think not yet moved with the times. Kettles in rooms or at least available on each floor is usual in hostels, so you might expect this in a hotel. It does note no kettles - so this is not a comment on what I expected, more on how basic it is.

    Cheap accommodation relatively close to the centre.

    The bedding was clean but the bedside table were dirty & the sink smelt slightly. Lots of burn marks on the floor. Didn't complain though as it was a cheap stay & we were only in the room to sleep.

    The bed was comfy & the towels were fresh. The price was excellent, staff were friendly & breakfast was available if needed (we didn't eat there). It was easy to find & only a 10 minute walk from the train station. Happy we were able to do a late check in.

    I requested on booking 3 months before to have rooms close together but when we arrived this didn’t seem to have been passed on. Staff tried to work around this and gave us 2 rooms together but the 3rd room was on a different floor.

    Staff were friendly and helpful. It was very cheap and close to The Hippodrome.

    It really is basic. A lot more than initially thought. The layout of the bathroom/ toilet is also very weird

    The locality of the hotel is perfect for the centre.

    Parking spaces were very limited and half of them are in between metal bollards/posts so if you are in anything bigger than a small car, it can be difficult!

    The room was as expected for a budget stay. It was clean and tidy upon arrival. Bed was slightly hard.

    Not even a cheap kettle in the room. Hot water available downstairs and thankfully I had my flask with me so didn't need to carry it in paper cups in the lift. Frustrating not to be able to get comfortable and make tea in the room.

    Cheaper than other hotels but that's because it's a budget hotel. More than a roll and jam for the £8.50 continental breakfast. Budget food with two tinned fruit and two fresh fruit. Only natural yoghurt served in glass bowls to restrict portions. A few cereals available, two pastries, mini cup cakes and bread for toast with jam or marmalade. Vegan and lactose free diets were considered with the milks. Better than expected. Good access to a few local shops and takeaways thank goodness. A tiny Morrisons over the dual carriageway though closed during my stay. Not too far from the Bull Ring shops and New Street Station. Stock up there!

    Shower had a bit of a smell, only noticeable when door was open. Down to the way the hotel was built I think. It was clean enough for a budget hotel. Bed was very hard indeed. Key cards had to be reset everyday, but staff did warn me at check in. Area is OK, but not the poshest.

    Staff were lovely, very helpful. Bus stops close-by, but the city centre only a short walk too. Paid £135 for three nights, which is a great bargain, but considering the bed, it's a reasonable price. Towels were decent, and hand/bodywash provided was a positive touch.

    Walking through the subway system might make other people nervous.

    Clean and tidy everything that we needed for the one night stay we were needing. Close to the venue where we were attending.

    The cleanliness was lacking. The included breakfast was fine as we hadn't paid extra, but had I paid for it I would have been highly disappointed with what was on offer. I would also have liked to know in advance that the hotel was a quarter of a mile inside the clean air zone. Also the key cards are highly temperamental and rarely worked.

    The staff were lovely and the location was convenient for visiting local attractions.
