Lovely welcome and very clean but the rooms were very small and everytime someone in the building use the toilet or shower the noise was umbearable. Also was not informed on parking fee of £6.00 per day and £15.00 per dog. Maybe this should be added to the description. The kitchen was being refurbed so there was no restaurant for the evening meal or cooked breakfast. On saying that the host was so friendly and helpful

This is the worst hotel I have ever booked via Hotels.com. I stayed in Room 4, right under steps and all night you can hear people going up and down. TV did not work and it was extreamly dirty behind TV. Carpet was full of stains including what looks like an Iron that burned the carpet by the bathroom. Bed skirt was coverred in stains. Chair by the desk is broken and also full of stains. Curtains are to small for the window and a blue neon light from outside keep the room very bright. Breakfast was a joke and not worth the 9gbp. Hotels.com, you might want to inspect this hotel because these hotels should not be on it. As for myself, I would much rather sleep in the airport next time then go to this hotel again.

Do not pay for breakfast at all as it is really not worth £3. No sockets in the room that are accessible Ensuite is tiny. No hot water for a shower. No teaspoons or saucers at breakfast. I put a plate out to put teabags and sachets on. No sauces available and the continntal breakfast was very very limited. Cooked breakfast was awful. Bacon was that crispy that you couldn't cut it. Eggs weren't good. Staff were nice enough when you could find one. I will not be back

The little things

The staff are friendly and welcoming, the bed was comfy, the room had tea coffee available. Breakfast was good as there was a nice selection of food and drinks. The only downside is the walls are not soundproof. So any noisy guests talking or banging doors would be an inconvenience. The shower took a bit of tuning to get the temperature right. Other than that I enjoyed my stay.

Hotel staff are wonderful and it's only a 30 minute walk to the train station/NEC but do be warned if you are staying here it's basically impossible to get food ordered to the hotel due to the address being the same as another place 3 miles away, I had to try ordering 4 times for something to arrive and if you are planning on getting a dubble bed for you and a partner know it's just two fairly comfortable beds pushed together which leads to there being a big gap in the middle of the bed you can fall through, for a cheap hotel it's not bad but if you don't have a way of getting food other then ordering takeaway I recommend going somewhere else, if not this hotel is a good choice (with no view out the window)

A good place to stay at for a night or 2. Standard rooms, I would say the rooms are quite small. The accommodation is placed on a main road so it can get quite noisy with hearing cars / vans go by. The walls are white thin as you can hear people exiting and entering their rooms. Decent location to the NEC. Friendly staff, would stay again.
