The hotel foyer and pub area are very lovely, great cosy atmosphere in the public bar, however the rooms are very outdated. Furniture in room very old and some piece was separating at the joints. The bed was old and very hard, pillows were also flat as pancakes and very uncomfortable, I had to put the bathroom towels underneath to give them some height. I could hear everything in the bathroom when they were filling up the bath, the water pressure running through the pipes in the room and the man in the bath right down to his washing and other bodily functions were like i was in the same room.
The staff in the pub area was very nice and helpful as it was raining beyond belief.

The gym as it was advertised contained only one running machine, a rower, some weights and a broken bike. However the room it was in was lovely! So under used. The rooms were nice and the beds comfy but the walls are paper thin and the workmen who visit it use language which would make a
sailor blush so please be aware of taking children. Otherwise nice enough, pleasant and helpful
staff and the beds were firm. Also the windows opened properly. I have not seen that in a while. Breakfast was great!

Room was not great - mine was the \"Westgate Suite\" and was old fashioned with a TV that didn't work properly (I wasn't bothered as I didn't need it but others will be) and a shower system that looked \"fancy\" with various jets pointing at the body as well as the overhead but, in reality, was totally ineffective. Dinner in the bar area was bland, soggy and not very nice - I did feed back at the time and was met with a blank stare and an apology of sorts.

I recently stayed at this place and overall the experience was decent, but there were noticeable issues with the heaters. The room never really warmed up, even after adjusting the controls multiple times. It made the room uncomfortable, especially at night.

This place has potential, but they definitely need to address the heating system before I’d consider returning.

Reception area looked ok, and the first corridoor upstairs where i presume the bridal suits are, but after that, the place is falling appart. Room door didnt feel secure, handle/lock (one of those old hotel door handles with the key hole in the middle) was nearly falling off. Luckily there was a chain. Looked like all the furniture was bought off a car boot.

Dated, but comfortable

The hotel is located just outside West Brom, tucked down a side street away from traffic with a shop just across the way. There was plenty of parking in the secure car park.

The room was slightly dated and seemed to be awaiting a refresh. Despite this, it was clean, warm (and not too hot), and had plenty of space.

Staff were really friendly when we arrived, and continued to be attentive during our stay. Fresh towels were provided when required.

Overall, a good place to stay, especially for the price.

I started to write a long review and then gave up. Needless to say, we won't be coming back due to a number of reasons. From exceptionally poor management to bra pads lying about in reception, to being asked to leave as they'd allocated us the wrong room, this place is awful.

HEATING NOT WORKING IN ROOMS AND INSECTS IN THE BATHROOM

Our family room was freezing due the hotel having a known problem with the heating (not working). We were provided with a portable heater which was not enough to warm up the room. We were promised a second heater by the gentleman on reception but this didn’t come. My wife and son caught a cold from sleeping in a freezing room and have been unwell all week following the stay.

Small insects were coming in and out from under the worn seal next to the sink and hand towels in the bathroom.

The hotel is dated and in need of repair/ modernisation.

Service is terrible- logged a complaint when checking out on Sunday. Heard nothing so we rang the hotel on Thursday and were told by the general manager Jason that he was too busy to discuss and to email him instead. He acknowledged the email saying he was busy all day and would investigate and come back to us asap (Sunday afternoon and still not heard back!)

Quiet & decent nights sleep.

Set within a decent looking neighbourhood & a huge car park, free as long as you enter reg details. Room was really clean & just right for a nights stay. Initially thought no tea/coffee making facilities but found them nestled in a cupboard. Decent pressure for shower. Was a little warm but felt couldn’t leave window open overnight as on ground floor with no retainer. That said a decent nights sleep & would recommend.

4 hours sleep in 2nights, so not ideal

Do not be put in 320, its next to the laundry room which houses the boiler or something similar, every few minutes it kicks in and a noisy fan starts rumbling away.
First nights sleep was not so bad, but I had several alcoholic drinks, but last night I didnt sleep at all ir my wife, literally laying in bed counting down for it to start again.

Rooms are old, one window wouldn't open as the mechanism was broken, lighting was not great as one tub light gone, felt small, dark and dingy, felt even worse as I only managed 4 hours sleep in 2 nights, so if sleeping is your preference I would avoid.

Room definitely needs an upgrade.

Breakfast isn't that great either to be honest I was hoping that would be the saving grace but sadly not
