The bed side table on the right side of the bed was missing you could see where it had been removed. Only 1 socket in the whole room

Freundliches Personal uns sehr sauber
Alles gut
Good breakfast
Old and tired building, limited bar
Bathroom was mouldy, chunks out of the sideboards. Can hear literally everything from other guests.
Very friendly and helpful staff, room was clean and comfortable , breakfastvwas very nice
Great location. Good sized rooms. Friendly staff
Locked gate to car park.
Staff friendly, good breakfast
Small bed
The breakfast was fantastic with fruit juice, the scramble egg and Sugg age and the rooms are okay the staff too are very wonderful and friendly. They attend to customers with full passion when required
Generally, everything about the hotel is fine and during the breakfast, I love the fresh hot sliced tomatoes, forest trees with low fat yoghurt were all very nice including oath milk juice and almond juice.
2 aparte bedden geboekt maar kreeg een tweepersoonsbed Personeel niet bereid om te helpen
Was easy to find
The staff was very rude. Come down for a drink and the lady was rude as there was nothing on draught. Only limited bottles and the fridge cooler was turned off so they was not cold. The bathroom in our room was still dirty and hairs in the shower. I told the lady this and her response was sorry we are short staffed which I don’t believe was good enough at all was very disappointed
Very good
Staff friendly. Rooms clean, comfortable, tidy Big shower Breakfasts were good
Poor location Not much within walking distance Evening meal menu best avoided No alcohol on tap at bar, only bottles
Location Inclusive breakfast Good price Clean Good WiFi
Outdoor sign not clear- at night invisible Not enough parking Breakfast sub par
Breakfast was very good Parking was great and it has a gate that locks overnight Clean and kept our room clean Respected our belongings
The entrance is a bit narrow to get in with a car, a silly driver came in speeding and nearly got us. The maintenance could be better, broken shelf which was repaired but repair was meh, door had to locked rather than just closed as it missed the latch which made me anxious with my child. Mouldy shower head.
Very clean .Friendly staff

The Staff was very friendly and helpful and the communal areas were very clean

Everything we needed for our 1 night stay
They said that booking.com had cancelled our booking in July. This wasn't something we had done or knew about. This delayed getting our room!.
Nothing
Tired, broken, awfull
The breakfast made my partner vomit
Fried eggs arrived after we’d finished our other food
The room was too close to the main road and the traffic noise kept us awake from around 5.30am
Basic hotel used for one night to watch the athletics at Alexandra Stadium. Basic hotel, nothing fancy, just somewhere to stop for the night and comfortable Breakfast was decent
Decor pretty basic, carpet etc. not the nicest close in when pulling in to the hotel.
Staff were all really great. Friendly and accommodating.
Beds were a bit small.
Schone kamer goed bed
locatie
Good location
The mattress were terrible. Uncomfortable, very springy, you could actually feel springs going into your spine. “Large” double bed was not large, it was just standard double bed if not smaller.
Had parking.
The room were too hot. Air con was playing up.
Close to central Birmingham and stadiums
While some of the staff was very nice and helpful some other was very cold and a bit unwelcoming
Extra bed. The staff I can’t speak highly of. We are regularly stay at the hotel and they recognise us now. We had to book in a day early. And accommodated us with easy
Friendly staff and room was quite good.
Bed configuration via Booking.com apparently lost so got wrong option but the hotel managed to find a solution.
hôtel calme et facile d'accès avec un grand parking gratuit et surtout un bon petit déjeuner cet hôtel correspondait bien pour mon déplacement à Birmingham
manque de prise dans la chambre pour charger téléphone et ordinateur
Basic three star hotel . Clean hotel , staff were cheerful and helpful. Breakfast was of an acceptable standard , hot , variety and good service
Drive in to hotel does not set a good impression
Large, air conditioned room. quiet.. Comfortable bed. Nice shower and towels.
Appeared to be short staffed during a busy breakfast time. Had trouble keeping up with clearing tables. Had to ask for items to be refilled e.g. cutlery, butter, yoghurt which to be fair was done right away.
Friendly, familiar staff.
Slight delay at breakfast, due to busy atmosphere
Liked the ease of booking, reminders sent, the staff were very friendly, welcoming and went above and beyond to accommodate customers
I booked a twin room and got a double. On the night tried to swap but hotel was fully booked, however we were advised to check again in the morning and got a reply that we were able to transfer rooms. Please can booking.com, ensure that customers receive the booking and pass on the details to hotel as specified as customers are asking for what they want but this is not being passed on to hotel staff!
I was not impressed that during breakfast there was a shortage of plates and cups. We waited 20 min for the mugs. Not acceptable.
Easy to locate
Creaky bed. Was first sent to the wrong room. Toilet was noisy the night
Good service by the staff especially the fun gentleman when checking in.
Good location, spacious rooms
Friendly staff
Not enough space in the dining hall. We are a 4 member family. Had to wait 10 mins until a table is cleared

The staff were nice and friendly
The breakfast could have been better. It had no flavour. When I initially went for breakfast I actually thought the hotel was an Ayslum Seeker hotel with the amount of none British People and ladies wearning full hijab. I’m not used to seeing this at a British Hotel. After checking within a member of staff I was reassured it wasn’t a Home Office Run Hotel.
Delicious breakfast, comfortable beds, good walk-in shower,clean room and toilet.
None…everything was good.
Bed very poor
Nice friendly staff always willing to help
Was on first floor room above very noisy sounded like children running around till late at night apart from that everything fine food excellent
Very welcoming and friendly staff
Room was very clean and good value for money
Friendly staff, comfortable beds, great breakfast
Not very good vegetarian options and due to the location, not near anywhere within walking distance to eat that’s not a fast food option.
Neat
We loved the size of the room, toiletries provided and the air con
Bed could do with being king size
Everything was excellent. The staff were very helpful and went the extra mile. Breakfast was very good.
Maybe a better choice of food when we arrived
Big spacious rooms, silent, good parking facilities, breakfast
The card opening system was always at fault so ended up going up and down to reception to try and fix the issue. Also, rooms were cleaned late in the day, and on our second day we ended up with no clean towels at all since we were still in room.
Location was perfect for us, rooms decent. Breakfast great and staff Lovely helpful accommodating and professional
Tv Tiny compared to other rooms as stayed there before. Lightning also wasn’t as great too. Cleanliness fine but could have been just that bit better. I had to remake the bed as it was oddly made half way down and the mattress was exposed, bed was the smallest single ever!
Nice and big parking space, the room is so clean and conducive
Location, parking, breakfast included.
- low number of staff. 2 members of staff each day covering both reception, bar and kitchen. Loads of issues with room key. Ages to get help at front desk.
The breakfast buffet being included was a nice addition, the lobby / reception area remained a calm quiet place throughout my stay and therefore felt accessible, I appreciate the air conditioning despite the intense heatwave outside I was very comfortable (at times even cold!) and pet friendly policy for my cat ensured we were both comfy. I liked the towel and room service options offered on a daily basis upon request at your door. Staff at the front desk and bar were all friendly, helpful, polite but also really approachable and relaxed which I appreciated, everyone is so hardworking and hands on which is so nice to see
The bathroom amenities were lacking such as basics like toothpaste/face towels (I prefer to use during showers) and other features such as flip flops/slippers or bathrobes - I wish like the bath mat I could request these extras as the front desk even if there were additional charges for the flip flops/use of bathrobes for example. It would be nice if a small catalog was available with your basic toiletries Would be nice if there were halal or a few more vegan options during breakfast - but more so the dinner menu was limited (eg Jacket potato, halal chicken / beef options, more sandwich options) and better coffee. I preferred eating dinner in my room and it would be nice if orders from the menu could be brought to your room instead of waiting at the bar. I wish the pet charge for my cat was lower than £10 per night as I didn’t request nor receive any additional services or accommodations for my pet - maybe max £7 for a cat and £10 for dogs
Value for money
It was all ok
The bedroom layout was perfect with the fold out bed included in our room
N/a
Helpful and friendly staff. Went down to breakfast not realising peak time and was packed. Couldnt do enouhh for ys as we collected our breakfast znd took to our room whi ch wss fine.
Only 1 chair in room so had to eat my breakfast on the bed.
Was Notting there much to like about the place really
The bed was uncomfortable to sleep in
Star City is close and I fancied something sweet. I found Haute Dolci and my god it didn't dissapoint. I might have to eat lettuce for the rest of the month. The hotel is ok, it's fantastically close to my customer on the Gravelly estate.
I was woken a bit early one morning by loud voices outside. It was two female members of staff.
Consistency
Location
The room was so spacious
The tables were sticky in the eating area
My daughter stayed here with her best friend for prom and they was so happy and exited a few family members meet up at the bar down and had a few drinks and there was ice cold water and juice at the entrance.
I don't have anything negative to say.
Air con
Breakfast
The bed was comfortable. The air conditioning was handy. The location was good
The room looked dated and tired. The bathroom wasnt clean. The carpet was grubby.
bed and room comfort
not enough electric sockets near bed. bedside tables too small usb port was broken
We had a big room. Breakfast was delicious and a buffet. Staff were all welcoming. Bed was very comfortable with a big shower.
It was a bit awkward to find and get into initially but good location near a large food court.
Hotel was nice
We wanted vegetarian sausages were told they didn't have any personally I think she was cleaning the kitchen and couldn't be bothered to cook them !!!!
Friendly staff and very clean. Breakfast was very good.

The hotel location is away from usual traffic, very friendly staff, breakfast was very good. Our room was very good size and big bed. Plenty of free parking.
We had an issue in the shower, the shower house and the inlet pipe needs replacing, we struggled with this which only Leeds to take more time to finish taking bath. No other issues. As the place is old, but it not poor place to stay at all. I would recommend the hotel if they could ease or check the rooms while they clean and fix any issues.
Good location for our plans around Brum
Although we don’t like soft mattress it was rock hard….
Breakfast could have been replenished a bit faster but the staff weee all working hard and very friendly
The location was good. Staff was good
The hotel had strange noises overnight. There was a whispering noises throughout the whole night coming from the corridor. Sound of doors opening and closing. Beds were not comfortable at all. We struggled to sleep
Godt sted hvis man skal besøge england for kort tid.
Staff horrible. Very unfortunate and unfriendly. Unresponsive to complaints
Horrible staff
Good location for our needs. Clean facility and friendly staff. Good breakfast variety.
Just that in our room the mirror wasn’t near a socket to fix my hair easier.
The location was great for what we wanted.
There was nothing we didn't like. Although do not use the taxi phone at reception. They put the phone down on us twice then when we did finally speak to someone you could hardly hear them and they said taxi would be 5 minutes but was over 45 minutes. Luckily we ordered another taxi from another company.
The mattress was too soft
Having breakfast included & not only being continental was good. good sized carpark
Entrance to the hotel was a little tight if a car was coming the opposite direction
Location was good for us
Booked a disabled access room, I also messaged the hotel regarding the disabled access room, when we checked in the first room Had a shower over the bath which I cannot get in, the second room had a shower with a step into it, as the hotel was full we had to accept this room & my husband helped me in & out of the shower, when talking to the receptionist, the hotel only has 1 fully accessible room, it doesn't state on the booking.com website this important information. Also the bed was really small so didn't have the best sleep.
Comfortable room and good breakfast, free parking
N/a
Staff were helpful and accommodating, very quick to rectify any issues (which was only 1) Room was nice and tidy and very clean. Nice and spacious also.
Aside from the huge tree outside of our window (which actually didn't give us a view lol) it would have been nicer to get a tad more natural light in but it was something to complain about to be honest.
We’re happy

The location was good and the room was big.
The pillows on the bed were stuffed into the pillowcase. There was hair in the shower and on the toilet seat. The breakfast was in need of heating up.
