Visited Birmingham for one night with my two children. The hotel served its purpose for what we needed but I wouldn’t rush back.
Pros:
Location - convenient for where i needed, short walk to Legoland/sea life, and 10 mins to the shopping area.
Price - I paid £68 for the 3 of us including breakfast, and £15 for secure parking.
Breakfast was included and had a reasonable selection
Free tea and coffee throughout your stay as well as ice
Cons:
Sofa bed was awful, even my 7 year old said it was the worst bed she had slept in
Duvets were so thin, I sent a message to the WhatsApp number they give you in the room to contact reception and had zero response (I couldn’t go down myself as my kids were in bed)
AC made a hideous noise every hour, kept waking me up, didn’t realise what it was until I mentioned it at checkout, apparently they are getting ‘maintenance to see to it’, also other random noises (not guests)
Staff were sat playing on their mobiles at the reception desk
Breakfast was okay, good selection but not particularly tasty
Parking not signposted at the front of the hotel, I found it by accident
Hotel seems tired and not what i expected from an ibis styles hotel, I suspect (and hope) it’s waiting for a refurb.
