Location was just right for us, room was very clean with everything we needed. Had a few concerns upon my arrival regarding noise from an adjacent room, reported this to the reception, to which they dealt with straight away. Breakfast area was very presentable with a good selection of everything we needed. Breakfast staff were very helpful and made sure the breakfast area items were always in good supply. Will stop there again. *****

Nice, modern, reasonably priced hotel on Digbeth side of city. Nothing you wouldn't get in one of the better Premier Inns, apart from a flashy reception. Big room, no noise from inside or outside, quiet but ineffective air con, lovely shower but the gel/shampoo tubes were empty!
