Room was warm with radiator not attention to detail with person on the desk .. no towels given and none in the room … room right next to the door people coming in and out of so could hear everything and the numerous people on the phones. In a rush to leave early morning then made to wait a few minutes etc to check the booking which made no sense as it was all paid and checked for on line and night before. Bit of a shame as the room itself was lovely and cosy

All the showers except one weren’t working. Room was very small with 0 amenities. Not worth the price point, okay if you literally just need a hole in the wall to sleep in.

Absolutely appalling experience at Malacuna Hotel and Hostel, Birmingham I booked a room at this property, paid online, and received both a confirmation and follow-up messages from the hotel. I was travelling from Oslo to London and then driving to Birmingham, planning to arrive around midnight for a few hours of rest before early morning meetings. To my shock, upon arrival, I was told my booking had been cancelled, not through the booking platform, but by a message. My reservation was still showing as active on the app, so I had no reason to suspect any issue. The reception staff spent nearly ten minutes building up the courage to tell me the booking had been cancelled, leaving me standing there in confusion. By this time it was past midnight, and the app wouldn’t allow me to book another room. I tried contacting Hotels.com, but their customer service was painfully slow and unhelpful. I ended up driving around Birmingham in the middle of the night trying to find somewhere else to stay, exhausted after hours of travel. As someone who spends over 150 nights a year in hotels worldwide, I can honestly say I’ve never encountered such poor communication, disorganisation, and lack of professionalism. Completely unacceptable behaviour from a so-called “hotel.” Avoid this place at all costs, if you value reliability, basic courtesy, or a good night’s sleep, book anywhere else.
