    There wasn't much to dislike, the only minor thing was the street lamp was right outside the window, and because it was warm we had the window open so had some traffic noise through the night. Neither of those things can be controlled by the hotel.

    The welcome was good. The room was lovely and clean. I loved the murals on the walls. . Breakfast was good and the restaurant area clean and bright and beautifully laid out, staff were polite and helpful. . The location was perfect for us. Easy to find, with a carpark at the back of the property. We were able to get a bus to the city centre with no problem. All in all a lovely stay.

    The lighting was really low and as women the lighting was really bad putting on makeup. Woman tend to get dressed with the curtain shut and you could hardly see. I saw this mentioned when I was booking and the light in the passage was was 1) off 2) so low it was off putting. Also mentioned was the low water pressure, this greatly reduced the bathing experience.

    The rooms were clean and neat the bathrooms are newly done and modern. The bed was firm and comfortable with a decent duvet. The rooms had fridges in them and a telephone, although the deco was not modern the room were comfortable. booking in was quick easy and really cool with the cheerful staff. Breakfast was lovely, relaxing with brilliant help from the very friendly staff.

    I wish there were more sockets in the room. I wish there was a chair(and a desk?) for my work. Insects came into the room everytime I open the window.

    There were so many beautiful paintings(art works) on all over the walls. I enjoyed them everyday. Those paintings were really fascinating. I also enjoyed the pretty garden view from the window a lot. Thr fridge in the room was also great. The staff were super kind and helpful.

    All went well arrived and reception was quick and welcoming room was very spacious .Although out of the city public transport was available within walking distance .Entry to the hotel was not a problem even late at night and the facilities of tea and coffee and an empty fridge to keep your drinks cold was very much appreciated .Breakfast was reasonably priced the service was excellent and cooked to just how we liked it.

    Located a little way out of the city so away from attractions in the Centre (however regular buses stopping just outside minimise this inconvenience). No evening meals available so had to arrange to eat elsewhere.

    Owner/manager friendly and welcoming on arrival. On site free parking available. Room clean, neat and tidy, serviced every day. Full English breakfast cooked to order available every day Although located on a busy route into Birmingham, the rooms to the rear are all very quiet and peaceful.

    All that's required is a handrail at right hand side especially at bottom where there is none at all. This is constructive I hope. From a health and safety aspect. Staircase not very friendly for disabilities.

    The whole ambiance inviting. Hotel inside and out well cared for.

    The shower - great that the water was hot but the actual shower was quite weak.

    Owners were friendly and helpful. Room was a good size with tea making facilities, hairdryer, fridge and TV, the bed was comfortable and clean. The shower was adequate but not very powerful (the only downside for me) Breakfast was great and quickly served by friendly, helpful staff. Parking was a great bonus as we were visiting for the Commonwealth Games and were able to park up and use public transport/walk without worrying about the car

    I stayed same time last year and price of room has doubled (like most hotels though). Due to last 2 years Covid lockdowns I guess...but a shock to my pocket so not sure I can afford to come again next year sadly.

    Breakfast very prompt and tasty. Loved the soft towels in rooms. Very clean.

    Bathroom was obviously recently refitted to a good standard so a little disappointing that the shower wasn’t more more powerful.Remarkable that is that we can think of that was disappointing !!!

    Breakfast, included in price, was very good and served by excellent, helpful staff. Very clean if a little dated but that should not deter booking. Excellent value for money. Very, pleasant and well kept garden

    A good hotel for an economic stay and which is close to the centre.

    A lift.

    Woodlands Hotel is well situated slightly setback on the main road with buses for easy access to the centre. It has secure car parking. Breakfast room is large and comfortable and included breakfast is very good value and well prepared. Rooms are on 3 floors, Ground, 1st and 2nd. Traffic is fast and at times heavy, so a ground floor room which faces the road, might be noisy if you have windows opened. If not, the hotel is well sound-proofed. Ask for a rear room for absolute certainty of a quiet night - the manager is very helpful. Rooms are clean and comfortable and cleaned each day, bathrooms/shower rooms are modern. As far as I could see, all rooms and reception rooms are nicely decorated. The one negative is lack of a lift. to the upper floors.
