Check-in was super easy. I was travelling on my own (female) for work, and I did feel safe. The apartment was a decent level of cleanliness, and very spacious for what I paid. Excellent to have a little kitchen and space to sit - rather than just a cramped bedroom. I would definitely stay again.

Very sad to see how much rubbish, broken glass, graffiti, and homeless were on the streets. We haven’t been in Brum for 19 years and it has changed. BUT, it is still our cherished family city 
