Pros:

Very comfortable rooms and good location

Cons:

They don't have enough food options for dinner.
Just 3 pizzas and I could choose between just 2, they had burger on the menu but I couldn't order because they didn't have all the ingredients.

Repetiría
Pros:

La ubicación, muy cerca de la estación al aeropuerto, el Bull Ring y en un paseo estas en el centro de la ciudad. Las vistas en la 17° planta, la amabilidad del personal, los detalles para los niños y la relación calidad precio. La habitación dispone de tetera y té. No lo usamos pero se agradece.

Cons:

Habitación justita de espacio y el plato de ducha tenía puntos negros que no me daban buen rollo. Hace falta cambiarlo o arreglarlo y limpiar bien la zona de la ducha. El ventilador del baño hacía un ruido molesto que no paró, pero con la puerta cerrada no se escucha en la habitación. También me faltó que hubiera más variedad de cena en el hotel. Disponen de precocinados como pizzas y otros platos. No aceptan efectivo.
