This place looks a little old and worn, it's been a hotel a long while before Ramada bought it. Some places smell of stale water and it was a long and strange trip from reception to our room. The bathroom had some grime and rust around some of the taps and shower fixtures. There was WiFi only in the lounge and it was broken for a few days of our trip, the internet access in the room is slow, wired only, and expensive (£11.99 a night for our stay). It was nice for us as it was close to family I was there visiting, however for anyone else there's not much to do directly in the area and if you're there to see Birmingham you're better off staying closer to city center. It's only a 15-20 minute train ride and 15 minute walk away though if you feel so inclined while staying here. The staff were helpful and friendly, and the leisure center was nice to have. They also did fireworks in the parking lot for New Year's which was a nice touch.

This hotel appears to have been here for years and is in need of both remodeling and upgrading. It is clean but tired. The need either a full time plumber or replacement of most of the toilet fixtures, not only in the guest rooms but also in the common areas. The waste pipes moaned in the building where we stayed and the tanks dripped until they refilled. We were told it was because of water restrictions from a drought, but having been in several residences, in other hotels and in other public bathrooms, this is the only place that we observed this problem. The hotel also lacks ventilation ducts, meaning there is no way to vent a bathroom. The staff was extremely helpful, most attentive, and very cheerful.
