Clean and functional
Pros:

The room was clean and everything worked.

Cons:

Only 2 pillows on the bed. The bed was quite hard. No kettle (but I suppose it is a budget hotel)

Overall Great
Pros:

Stayed in a newly renovated room, a much better design than the old type. Great idea to put the bathroom in one room (previously sink and shower were in bedroom, toilet separate) staff are very friendly, location is great and rooms were spotlessly clean. The hotel also accommodated my room allocation/location requests which I appreciated.

Cons:

I was in room 553 and the water pressure for the shower was very poor, very low pressure which was not ideal. The room was also fitted with an air cooling or air conditioning system, this did not work at all, essentially just made noise but did not seem to blow any air out at all. I am confident it was not user error by myself, as friend were staying in the room opposite and theirs worked quite well. The few issues were a little frustrating, especially after the newly renovated room was to a high standard itself.

Room was clean but won’t stay again because of the noise
Pros:

Shouting in the corridor at 4 am. No one came to sort it out. We had to tell them to shut up they went on for a further 10/15 minutes.

Cons:

Bed was hard.

Pros:

really clean room, newly done up, couldn't fault it but could do with pug socket next to mirror for hair drying and styling

Cons:

i think it is hugely overpriced but a good room, I'd stay in a premier inn/travelodge next time for better facilities and cheaper stay but it was a nice spot.

Pros:

Not very happy the fact that there was no kettles in the rooms and that you have to pay £2.50 for a cup of tea that was like water out of the machine when you've been travelling and then you're entering the hotel you want to be going through your room and sitting down for five minutes and be an hour to have a cup of tea in your room the rooms are very small considering we paid extra for extra room and then we were told it's just because it was refurbished yet beddings were all still old and so was pillowcases when this is a family room as well it's not really that great whatsoever there's no wardrobes to put your clothes in or hang your clothes up. We have also stayed in ibis budget hotels in Birmingham area before and they still have facilities even when they're a budget as well.

Cons:

The hotel itself is not too bad but I do think you need to think of when people are coming to stay and how comfy you can make that stay for them. Even with the toilet space is so tight to the war my partner needs were actually touching the wall as well considering it's a family room I would not be impressive I'd bought my children along with me there's only one been in the bathroom as well when I think there needs to be a bin in the room itself. On the website we also upgraded the room and then when we went to the reception she said it's not an upgraded room it was just a refurbished room so we didn't find that very helpful at all. Unfortunately me and my partner definitely would never recommend staying here ever again because we won't be. Unlike I've mentioned before we have stayed in ibis budget hotels before and they've been nothing like this we were very very upset to be fair we also didn't really want to stay the extra night we then asked if we could have our money back and she said because we'd paid online for it that we couldn't be entitled to have our money back which I think it's quite wrong as well. Also when you paid for the facilities you at least expect team making facilities even in a budget hotel. When we come up to Birmingham once a month I usually do take pictures I haven't taken any of this one either so I think that in itself shows

Central hotel which does the job
Pros:

The hotel is central and that made travelling to the conference I attended easy.
The staff were friendly and helpful. There's a Morrisons store right across the street and the Indian restaurant opposite is excellent - The Cafe Racer

Cons:

No tea making facilities in the room. There’s no AC. It's like this weird hybrid that cools above 18c and heats below it. I wanted the room cooler but it was 17c/18c and it wouldn't do it.

Breakfast was good except it's a cold buffet (nothing wrong with that) and they had cheese but no cold meat like ham. Which is odd.

Poor value for money
Cons:

I can think of several options that would be better value for money ( £200) for one room - very small no tea or coffee on the room and no parking available when arriving after 6pm - would never stay in an Ibis again

Przyjemnie
Pros:

Świetna lokalizacja, wystarczająco czysto. Na 2-3 dni jest ok.

Cons:

Monotonne, mało urozmaicone śniadania. Na 2-3 dni ok, ale dłużej byłoby już gorzej. To samo z pokojem. W dwie osoby na dłużej byłoby ciężko. Brak szafy lub miejsca do składowania rzeczy. Brak wieszaka na kurtki przy wejściu.

Pros:

-very clean, exactly as expected with a very good lobby area and friendly staff. The lack of a coffee machine or drink facilities inside the room is made up by the cheap food and drinks, as well as the coffee machine, that operates 24/7.
-exactly what you get for your money.

Cons:

-a tiny bit small, but its expected. Be warned that the room Tv is quite low and the bed takes up a lot of space, i guess it would make it hard to move around if youre above a certain height or very big.
