Not bad but could be better…

I chose this hotel for its affordability, only needing a basic place to sleep and wash, so my expectations were minimal. Unfortunately, the room wasn't clean; both the floor and desk furniture were dirty, and the drains had a strong, offensive smell when I arrived. I even had to buy bleach to clear the odour from the sink, shower, and toilet. Despite these issues, the reception staff were very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was both good and reasonably priced.

They're extremely kind and they got in charge of the problems I went through because of the international travel I was set for. Even from afar I've grasped their motivation and this means that as soon as I move back to Brum again my preference will undeniably drive me to this gentle space and the humans who run it

It was fine. At first I thought the reception lady was a little rude, but later on realised she's just abrupt. I didn't like I had to pay extra to check in 30 mins early. If it was me, and a room was already free, I'd just let the person in if they're there. The corridoors were kept clean. The room was extremely simple and depressing as you would expect from an Ibis budget. The toilet was in a cupboard and the sink was in the room. If you're just using it as a base I'm sure it's fine.

Don't leave your charger

I left my phone charger at the hotel by mistake, I realised when I was on my train back so left a message on the hotels app. I got no reply so tried calling them the next day, the phone rang for half an hour then got cut off. I called them a day later and they said the phone charger hadn't been handed in, this is very disappointing as I had left it plugged in my room (room 209) by mistake
