The hotel is nice but I think that they could have done better with Breakfast because there was no cooked food and they could’ve put a tv remote in the hotel room. But overall I enjoyed my stay.

You get what you pay for and this was the cheapest room in Birmingham at the last minute. In the dark the area and place looked a bit sketchy when I arrived - especially being a solo woman traveller, but by morning light it was fine. Lovely staff upon check in. Very basic and small room - but clean linen, towels and spotless bathroom. Tea & Coffee facilities in room. Many reviews mention steep skinny stairs which is true, but as i didnt have luggage it was fine.

Excellent central location. The rooms are small, but well equipped and comfortable. You should visit the Indian Cafe Racer downstairs whether you stay in the hotel or not!

Would stay again

Basic but clean and friendly, would stay again but ask for a room upstairs as door to the bar which was just outside the room was constantly in use and slamming shut.

I needed an earlier check in as my concert tickets came through late which clashed with check in, but after explaining this i got access to my room early and it saved me missing out. Staff friendly and helpful. Outside was a noisy road but not terrible. Great shower, much needed after a sweaty gig and walk back.
