Rooms were clean, but beds were rock hard, we were only provided with 1 flat pillow each and requested for 2 more which we had to collect from reception an hour n half later, the rooms were too hot we had the air con on full and the window open (it’s even snowing outside) and we were still sweating. We have to leave the hotel at 6am for our flight and we haven’t managed to even get a minutes sleep despite being awake nearly 24 hours. The receptionist was super friendly however she was working alone on a really busy night hence the slow response to everything.

Trying to find the hotel after arriving back Birmingham airport was a terrible experience . Initially visited the Ibis budget hotel and told wrong hotel . Asked for directions and told ‘ go and ask over the road at valet parking’. Valet parking unable help and said they didn’t know where the hotel was . after walking around in the dark at 11:30pm trying to get answer, we finally located the hotel by following other people who had initially also gone to the wrong hotel just like us . Communication regarding breakfast not clear and on arrival in the dining area all the hot serving dishes for cooked food were empty! Only when the manager appeared he explained breakfast was cooked to order and then followed with curt ‘ what do you want then’? A very poor and disjointed experience

For a hotel near the airport, this is a good hotel. It is a short walk to the terminal and the hotel is clean. When I stayed, it was a bit loud with vacationers getting an early start. There's not much near the hotel but that;s to be expected.

Disliked: Amenities
Room was quiet basic but comfy. Plus point was that they had an iron and ironing board. Downsides were that the bar closed very early and i couldn't buy bottles for the room (i got back at just gone 12 from a gig, there was a couole who were looking for a vending machine which they didn't have for those after hours snacks) . Went down for breakfast and that looked a bit ropey. Stairs to which looked like they hadnt been cleaned in a long time (ok i was the back stairs) Apart from that the staff were very nice and courteous.
