The whole experience was just great, from checking in, beautifully kept room, and great service at breakfast. I really liked how the restaurant lead recognized us from the day before, even to have a conversation with us. Only negative, the coffee from the machine is not the best!

It is dated but that was to be expected from the reviews and price. We ...

Very sad to see how much rubbish, broken glass, graffiti, and homeless were on the streets. We haven’t been in Brum for 19 years and it has changed. BUT, it is still our cherished family city 
