I stayed in a double and loved the bed, it was so comfy and very clean! Staff were very nice. Wifi didn't work on my phone and the shared bathroom was very cold but other than that it was very affordable and had a good time!

Although it was a day trip, I had a good time lodging at PH Hostel. Maybe because of my height, the beds were small for me lol. Overall, it was good.

I didn’t like it because we didn't go, I tried and tried calling you for 3 day's all day, user busy and I wrote to you to cancel it by the 6th May, no reply and now I've lost my money

We totally enjoyed the time we stayed in the PHhostel with the three staff we saw, very friendly, funny and very helpful when we needed anything. We only had one issue we didn’t like and that was the bathroom situation as each time we went to it, we found it to be dirty, no toilet roll or very messy.

I would like to give average marks. Side bed lamps are not working properly, common washroom was dirty.

Booked one of the rooms. Incredibly good value. Nice toiletries in bathroom and bed was comfortable. £4 towel offer a good deal and great way to reduce environmental impact. Only downside was the front door opening and closing was very loud - I think the room was right above it.

Staff very helpful and friendly at check in. Got to honest wasn’t expecting a lot with it being a hostel but it was great. Rooms could just do with a good clean. But it was warm and comfortable providing a good base for visiting Birmingham. Just do homework on where to park if travelling by car.

Friendly, quirky hostel in a convenient location by the Jewellery Quarter. Great value for money with friendly staff and a relaxed atmosphere. Plenty of places to charge phones etc and good quality WiFi. Only improvement I'd suggest is the beds, which were roomy but not the most comfortable.

My recent stay at Ph - The room was clean, and the bed was comfortable—no complaints. The staff were generally good and helpful. One of the male staff members was exceptionally kind and provided genuine assistance, which I really appreciated. I didn’t catch his name, but he was on the night shift on 12th March and 19th March. Overall, I had a great experience and would happily stay again. P.S. Just a small piece of feedback: Having handwash in the kitchen would be much appreciated.
