Perfect location for a short, cosy stay, with excellent access to the surrounding area
Pros:

We had only booked for one night as a stop off on a longer trip and as an overnight base for our visit to the European Athletics in Birmingham. Our journey took less time than expected so we arrived around an hour early but we were welcomed at the desk and able to check in, which was great. Due to travel complications on our way back from the event we didn't arrive back until after midnight but had good instructions as to how to access the hotel. Our room was a compact one at the front of the building. It's at road level so no view - but it really isn't needed. The room itself was beautifully put together, comfortable and had everything we needed for a good night's sleep. Breakfast was excellent too.

Cons:

Absolutely nothing. The service was friendly and efficient throughout our short stay and the hotel is well located for access to Birmingham (Dorridge station only a few minutes' drive away) or for exploring the lovely surrounding area.
