It served a purpose

Booked this hotel as convenient for football ground. It was ok, the room was clean but beds were uncomfortable, think a change of mattresses might be an idea.

Room for improvement

I'm very torn about writing this review, because it is a budget hotel and you get what you pay for, so I wasn't expecting a palace. But cleanliness should be great as standard, whether you're in a 2 star or a 5 star, and the room could have been cleaner. The carpet clearly had not been hoovered, and we never heard a hoover once throughout our stay, it sounded like the staff used a brush to sweep the carpet in the room above ours. Could have done with two pillows on each bed, as only one provided and very thin. The shower head in the bathroom was an actual bio-hazard (which I have a photo of, but a glitch isn't letting me upload it). Given the staff were so genuinely lovely and clearly doing their best to give a fantastic and friendly service, we chose not to complain, as we didn't want to spoil the tone of our stay given we were there for more than one night. The cooked breakfasts were absolutely fantastic and brilliant value, could not fault them in any way, and the staff we met were all great. I would have given 4 starts for sure with just a couple of issues addressed.

En pub med några rum till rimligt pris

Ett helt ok boende på en pub. Rent och bra dusch. Ingen höjdarsäng,men närheten till Villa Park gör den ideal för en resa för att titta på fotboll. Och puben är kanon.

Great location for Villa

Convenient stay for Villa home game. Lovely friendly staff easy check in and check out. Very thin walls and loud slamming doors but we knew it’d be busy with a Saturday night Villa game so we weren’t too bothered by it!

A fuir

Nous avons eu la possibilité d’arriver plus tôt pour poser nos bagages ce que nous avons apprécié ! Tout c’est très bien déroulé avant que décidons d’aller dîner. Quelle déception! À notre arrivée dans le salon, on nous a rétorqué sèchement d’aller nous assoir et qu’ils allaient venir ! Nous avons attendu près d’une heure, personne ne nous calculez, trop préoccupés à servir et discuter avec les habitués ! Nous avons dû insister en nous présentant à nouveau au bar! Près 30 min après, nous avons enfin étés servis ! Pizza et frites congelés et sans goût! 1h30 pour du surgelé, c’est HONTEUX !!! À côté de ça, nous avons très bien dormi ! Au moment du Check out, ils nous a peine calculé, nous ont arraché les clefs des mains et à peine dû au revoir ! Nous étions OUTRÉS!!!!

Pros: great location for Villa Park and an even better price point compared to others in the area. Cons: virtually underneath the A38 so traffic noises from rumble strips is always there so light sleepers may want to carry earplugs. No kettle in the room but you can fetch hot drinks complimentary whilst the bar is open but may make your first cuppa of the day late. Only one iron for all guests, iron before you leave home. Couldn’t find there was any WiFi in the room I was in and isn’t the best signal either on the phone.

The room was clean but the bar and dining area was very poor. Why no bin in the bedroom or bathroom? Some of the seats by bar didn't even have covers on just exposed filling. Very unhygienic. Not sure who owns this property but I will never stay there again. Grim

This property is ideal for any Aston Villa fan it’s a few minutes away from Villa park parking is great at £8.00 for non patrons £5.00 for patrons but get there early it does get full quickly the pub is fairly big and set up for any Villa fan and drinks are cheap there are plenty of food vans on route and one sitting outside the pub the rooms are very basic and a second pillow would of been welcome plus a bin of some sort no heating when we went up at 9pm so had a bit of a cold night tv was ok but difficult to operate and the speakers were crackling the bathroom was clean with hot water and fluffy towels in almost was clean and useable
