Honestly, an absolute beautiful place great value of money and I loved every moment of it
Pros:

The staff were absolutely friendly and kind and helped me in my queries. I had a lovely food and it was just a great value for money. The only thing you’ve hear a bit of traffic at night but you get used to it but for his location and the benefits top class 100%.

Cons:

Only a bit of traffic at night that’s it really good generally is fine. I want to be more traffic noise from cars passing by but fine.

Not pleasant🤨
Pros:

The property is on a main road close to Cadbury. Can’t say much. It was clean.

Cons:

The staff were unhelpful and I had to climb 3 narrow flights of stairs at 66 and a bad knee with no assistance to get to a pokie room that was basic. It was clean though. The person on the front desk was clueless and spoke limited English. Would not recommend unless you are a young mountain goat.

Pros:

Breakfast in the restaurant was lovely, staff really friendly.
Room was warm and clean.

Cons:

The room was not only very small but, given the size, badly designed. Little effort to make the best of the space, bed up against the wall....anaglypta on the walls, artex on the ceiling, functional grey fabrics felt grim. Lamp clamped to headboard on the bed felt like an 80's teenagers bedroom , mattress was basic. Curtain pole hanging off (we fixed it), rail in bathroom also hanging by one screw. Felt like a hostel, which would be fine, but not for £100 for a Thursday night in March in Birmingham 🙂

Pros:

Breakfast and Maggie great!
Front of house refurb look great
All very clean but basic, more like a BandB

Cons:

The double room was really small
The length of one side of the bed was against the wall and the door opened to hit the side of he bed.
Really basic room

Nice and comfortable and makes a change from chain hotels.
Pros:

It was like a converted barn in the city and opposite the famous chocolate factory! - with loads of parking too.

It has recently been renovated and was very clean and tidy.

The guy on reception was really polite and helpful.

Cons:

Nothing really not to like.
