Lacklustre
Pros:

The breakfast and main bar in the sister hotel were quite nice although it should be noted that this is a 5 minute walk away and requires crossing an (at times) busy road. Not suitable for small children or disabled individuals.

Cons:

Shower was dirty and didn't drain. Pressure was fine but it repeatedly cycled between hot and cold no matter what temperature it was set to. I spoke with colleagues and this was not a unique experience.
Room was hot and housekeeping staff would always open the blinds and close the windows despite it being a heat wave.

Smart 'student-room' style accommodation, with a good breakfast
Pros:

The breakfast is over the road at the Edgbaston Park Hotel and is good

Cons:

I moved room because the step into the shower in the first room was challenging for me - but to be positive, staff found me an accessible room. The check-out time is a bit early (10am). Like mnost of the country, the rooms struggled a bit with the heatwave!

Cons:

The bathrooms in Peter Scott House are now very tired. A heated towel rail in the middle of a very hot spell was not necessary

Pros:

Location was great in proximity to the university in the graduation.

Cons:

The bathrooms were quite dirty and felt unclean.
The doors were difficult to open with the key, I feel like the hotel would benefit from a modern rennovation.

Lovely apartment but not what we booked! We paid for a 2 bedroom apartment but only got a 1 bedroom.
Pros:

Apartment was lovely.

Cons:

We booked a 2 bedroom apartment but got a 1 bedroom apartment. Staff were quick to provide an extra bed which went in the lounge area.
