Poor food
Pros:

Our server Paulette was lovely, friendly and helpful.
The thing that let it down was the food.
Bland and no taste. We had been gifted a voucher for our anniversary and were very disappointed with.
The whole meal was not good and we came away feeling underwelmed.
Soup - tasteless
Mushrooms in a tin of tomatoes- awful
Brownie over done and burnt
If you do not like microwave food give it a miss.

Modern Hotel Let Down by Basic Maintenance
Pros:

I stayed at the Clayton Hotel Birmingham recently and, unfortunately, the experience was less than I expected.

Check-in itself was fine - the hotel was easy to find from the shopping centre car park, and there was no queue. I had booked a junior suite, which initially looked promising.

However, the room’s heating didn’t work. I didn’t report this at the time - I’d already unpacked, changed, and settled in, and the last thing I wanted was maintenance in the room for half an hour or having to move rooms. I bundled up instead. That said, this is something that really should have been checked before arrival.

I ordered room service, and while the food itself was lovely, it took three trips to get it right. The first delivery came without condiments. When I opened the lids, I realised the chips were missing too (which probably explained the lack of ketchup). A third trip was then needed to bring the chips.

After that, I thought I’d warm up with a hot bath - but the bath nozzle was broken off, and only one temperature came out: scalding hot, making it unusable.

The hotel has great potential. It’s modern, feels new, and has an excellent city-centre location. Unfortunately, it was really let down by a lack of basic upkeep and attention to detail. Next time, I’ll likely book the Premier Inn across the street instead.

Dreadful. Poor air con.
Pros:

Aircon set up and system dreadful. sleeping in a stuffy uncomfortably warm room with no ability to adjust. As many people have highlighted.
In my opinion, absolutely no point paying any amount of money for a hotel room if you can’t actually sleep.
