    Mind the v steep stairs if you have bulky luggage

    Booked here as working in Birmingham and all hotels this week at double/ triple the price due to big local concerts. Easy train ride from New St and nice suburb Bournville. Very comfortable bed and very clean flat. Good tv Wi-Fi -not modern and fancy but great value for money - cafe was closed Mon and Tues but has excellent reviews

    The toilet wasn't that clean. There was a red mark on the vanity unit, which I wiped off with a tissue. Everything else was ok. TV was a bit small.

    The bed was lovely and comfortable, big room. Nice shower. The area was lovely

    The stairs are quite steep to the rooms so take it really easy. This property will be unsuitable for wheelchair users but the cafe accommodated to a wheelchair user Friday morning breakfast!

    The room was a very Good size, the bathroom was very modern and fitted 3 people in the shower (1 not so small adult,tall man and a toddler). The bed was really comfortable and we all slept well. Our room was above the cafe so once it is closed our 3 year old was running in the room (as toddlers do) we caused no disruption for noise downstairs so that was really good. In good location for train station and Cadbury even with me with limited mobility. People who worked there were really friendly and the breakfast in the cafe was brilliant our son loved ice cream on pancake for breakfast and they accommodated for a change in my breakfast very well. (I don't like warm tomatoes so I have mine raw) the coffee is really nice. Decor is very cool. The cafe users were really friendly.

    I arrived at night and the motion-sensor light in the alleyway doesn’t come on until you are partway down it.

    Historic, quirky but cosy. Very comfortable stay in room 3. Spacious well appointed bathroom with nice powerful shower.

    WiFi didn't work as it didn't reach to that bedroom. It worked out in the corridor but that's not very useful. Its 2024, please sort that out The towels, although clean, were very rough. Very steep stairs to get in but we knew that from other reviews so it wasn't a problem but don't visit if you have mobility issues.

    It was quiet, comfortable, clean and homely. The old fashioned furniture and tea cups, etc were clearly deliberate to get the period look which we appreciated. Don't expect a modern feel. The beds were comfortable, the shower was good and even though it was only a few degrees outside in February, the room was warm enough as it had two radiators which were giving out enough heat. There are three coded locks to get in for which the codes were sent by text and email in good time. We were happy with this arrangement.

    Nothing.

    The room was lovely. The guy who runs the cafe downstairs was very friendly and helpful. The room was a great size for the price. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. Unfortunately we were in Birmingham for an operation at the Royal Orthopaedic Hospital, but the location of our overnight stay was perfect. Your place was great value for money and we liked the quaintness of the building.
