Very small rooms, I understand it says “mini” hotel but it felt claustrophobic, narrow stair cases and no sound proofing. Could constantly hear people coming and going, the room itself was boiling. I was in room 7 and it was 31 degrees and yet there was a storage heater in the room instead of a fan. The view of the garden was disgusting. Breakfast was pitiful cheap sausages, lukewarm beans and some egg, watered down squash and no coffee, not even coffee in the room and there was just espresso cups in the room so unable to have a proper cup of tea.. there were no shhampoo or shower gel left in the bottles and was hair in the shower drain, some poo on the toilet brush. The whole feel of the building was uncomfortable and felt unsafe. Staff were weird and hide behind a divider during breakfast. The front door was irritating and difficult to get into, and there was no sign on the building to indicate it was the mini hotel. The sign in the room made it seem like affordable luxury but there wasn’t even the effort to get the basic needs of a hotel room right. The beds must be decade old as all the springs are coming through, awful night sleep. The rooms look dilapidated and in desperate need of painting. The WiFi was nowhere to be seen and so I had to rinse my 4g. No plugs near the bed so couldn’t charge my phone whilst in bed or sat down. Also no sugar in the room. Just pay a bit more and avoid the disappointment, prioritise safety and hygiene and just stay at a premier inn.

This so called hotel never sent me detail for checking in until the day after. I had to find another hotel in Birmingham. I could not get in contact with the people and when I did they kept cutting off the call I that this place is nothing but derelict property. You should delete it from your listing as it’s a scam!!!

The bed is very poor because the mattress is too old, need update. The bed lien is damaged and it have holes so need new bed lien and wash regularly. They gave me wrong key code by email from Hotels.com. The door code is not good as it is complicate as you gave me the wrong code for the door. If I am alone, it will be difficult to access the code. I had been sent message and no reply at all. The breakfast is not very nice. I smelt lot of smoking in the my bedroom No.2 which was not good as it affect my health and not enough sleep through my weekend. Staffs are not friendly and unwelcome. Why do you hide from the curtains and privacy. The lights were flickering on the stairs. I am very disappointed. I won’t return to the hotel next time. Please update ALL the rooms. I will report to the hotel inspector to check your hotel.

Brutally Honest: Avoid at all costs

My stay was an absolute nightmare. The bed was beyond awful—cheap Amazon frames that creaked loudly with every tiny movement and a mattress so thin and worn that I could feel every single spring stabbing into my back. It felt like sleeping on a pile of scrap metal. The so-called “free buffet breakfast” was a complete insult: a sad bowl with a few slices of bread, a few pale, shrivelled sausages that looked barely cooked, and a bowl of baked beans that were lukewarm at best. Just the bare minimum of effort. And let’s not forget the “juice,” which was just watery squash that tasted like disappointment. They provided exactly two teabags no matter how long you stayed, and the teacups were practically shot glasses, forcing me to buy my own mug just to have a decent cup of tea. There was no Wi-Fi, despite it being advertised, and every attempt to contact the hotel was completely ignored. No matter how many times I reached out through Hotels.com or direct messages, I got nothing but silence. Same goes for “washing facilities” none to be seen. The walls were so thin you could hear everything—other guests stomping around, slamming doors, talking loudly at all hours with no regard for anyone else. This wasn’t a hotel, it was a glorified, poorly managed HMO with a price tag that made the experience even more insulting. Every corner was cut, every detail neglected. It was an absolute waste of money. Avoid this place like the plague.

The thing about this hotel is that check in and check out is done by email, and picking up a code to get your own key. There is no reception and so no service as such. That’s not necessarily a bad thing, just took some getting used to. I would have appreciated slightly larger cups in the room and a coffee sachet as well as tea.
