Nice continental breakfast. ‘Dot’ was working at breakfast too - nothing was too much trouble. This lady needs a promotion!! Thank you

Room was clean what to small for two adults and one child, and if you want to drink tea or coffee even first enter the room you to go back to reception and ask cup and take hot water and bring your tea bag from home and drink your tea without milk . And shower is very low water oh even if you want drink water cold come reception and ask cup again .
As a mother kids you ask water every time specially in this hot weather no problem for water hahaha

The hotel room had the same amount of claustrophobia as (I'm presuming) a UK prison cell.

Could've used a good clean too. Literally no amenities in the room, just a double bed and a tiny single bed just above it.

It was cheap and convenient for my flight. That's literally the only positive I can give this dump.

Decent location a short walk from the city centre. Friendly and helpful staff. Good sized, clean room with functional amenities. Sadly the room smelled like an open drain. Loud clunking and gurgling coming from the drains all day and night. TV is very small. Window was very small. Loud traffic noise from the dual carriageway outside during daytime, but quiet enough overnight. All in all tolerable for overnight stay or if spending limited time in the room. Feels more like a hostel than a hotel. If you want an enjoyable hotel stay you're probably better off spending a bit extra on a 3 or 4 star hotel nearby.

On check in , I was greeted by a very friendly chap. Answered my questions effectively. I had booked one of the upgraded rooms. Nice design, very clean, comfortable mattress. Be warned that rooms are quite small. Even sitting down on the toilet can be cramped ! Breakfast is satisfactory. Just continental. I have enjoyed much better but it is only £9 and you can eat all you can ! The Lady tidying up the plates and ensuring stock levels were good, on my second morning was not the usual and she wasn't quite as approachable or helpful. I paid quite a high price for my two nights but I do like this hotel, especially for its location. Only 10/15 minutes walk to bull ring / new street station. And staff generally better than many places. Parking is limited due to refurbishment work, so arrive early if you can !!!

The staff were very good, very helpful.
I had thought the low cost was due to being out of the season, but sadly, the price reflected quality of the hotel, which was was poor, in that the beds were bad, I can normally sleep anywhere; upright on a settee; on a floor; but I would wake after 4 hours with a stiff back & went downstairs to the canteen & sit to give my back a chance to stop being stiff.
No storage for clothes; no real seating; a toilet so small I had to have the door open before I could sit down or when I got up.
Nice location, shame about the extremely poor room.

This hotel makes a Travelodge look like The Dorchester.

While the ladies at reception and the cleaner were absolutely lovely and did their best to help, this is unfortunately the worst hotel I have stayed in within the UK.

The first room I was allocated had an overwhelming sewage smell. The odour was so strong that I walked straight back out and returned to reception. To their credit, the receptionist apologised and promptly moved me to what she described as one of the newly refurbished rooms.

Although the second room was clean, it was incredibly small, the smallest hotel room I have ever stayed in. Anyone who suffers from claustrophobia would likely find it very uncomfortable. The bathroom was equally cramped, with barely enough space to turn around. The shower and sink were also exceptionally small.

To make matters worse, there was a vent in the room on the exterior wall, which meant dealing with dragonflies and other insects throughout my stay.

Overall, this was not a pleasant experience, and I would not choose to stay here again.

Excellent location for a concert at the o2 academy. Staff were very very helpful and while the room was basic it had everything I needed for a one night stay.

Room had a few silverfish but not so many that I felt uncomfortable sleeping there or thought there might be a problem. So if you REALLY hate bugs maybe go elsewhere. Other downside is the breakfast was very limited and would be pretty much nothing if you were dairy free/vegan.

I’ll start as the stay went.
I had to wait for a car park space as a car was leaving this was good as I didn’t want to leave my car in a pubic car park. ( the car park is half the normal amount due to some sort of work )
Booking in was good parking is first come first served
The room is fine for the price. I was disappointed there are cigarettes burns on the floor. The room is ok the light switches had a mind of there own switching on and off.
Shower had two temperature super hot or super cold
My aircon didn’t seem to work
I decided to stay an extra night and I got this sorted with out any issues.
Staff very nice and helpful
Overall for the money I definitely stay here again it’s just a room to get your head down.

Firstly I’d say, the staff were lovely. Check-in was easy and they were very friendly and polite. Downhill from there. I’d say I’ve stayed a quite a variety of hotels in my time of all budgets.

This felt like I was staying in a supply cupboard in an office. The window was slightly bigger than a cat flap. The sink was in the room like a prison cell, the toilet in a little cupboard and as for the shower, it was an introduction to what my final resting place may feel like. If you’re claustrophobic don’t even bother.

Air conditioning didn’t work - it was the hottest day of the year. Not that it wasn’t blowing cold, it wasn’t blowing at all. So in combination of the weather, the cat flap window and lack of AC, sleeping in there would have been comfier with a serial killer with a fetish for breath play.

I dunno, even though this was a budget hotel, I still kinda hoped there would be at least a bottle of water. Naa, just two paper cups to fill at your prison cell sink.

Didn’t take any pictures as they would have been ugly enough to ruin my phone camera. 10/10 will avoid like the plague.
