Easy walk from the airport, ideal for our needs for a stay over in Birmingham, clean , friendly staf
Pros:

Location to the airport, good sound proofing as never heard any noise from the trains , cars or planes even though close to them . rooms were adequate clean, comfortable , tv very large but good. due to upgrades a bit building work going on but didn't hinder anything and already known to us.

Cons:

would have preferred an early check in as did arrive at 1 pm so had a snack in the bar area till 3 pm. I think i did try and book an early check in but could not. as already knew about building work it was a dislike but did restrict any eating areas possibly. cleaners were nice, there was boxes on the lift landing possibly from the building work not the best presentation.

Pros:

The room was clean and the bathroom was modern & spotless

Cons:

We couldn't get the room to warm up, the bathroom was freezing. The room sleeps 5 but once the sofa bed is down there's no room to walk about. The room was also only set up for 3 and there was 4 of us. Having said that they quickly brought further bedding . It served its purpose as we only needed it for 1 night for the airport

Highly recommended for convenience and comfort.
