Ok

We have stayed here before. Its a pleasant modern hotel and breakfast is included in the price. They do serve food but there is a very good restaurant about 3.mins walk away. The discounted price for paring is £12.50. Our only problem was i had prepaid for the hotel but the receptionist said i hadnt .There was short queue so i didn't immediately query this and i paid. When i checked my invoice from Hotels .com i had paid. On my return to the reception another receptionist refunded my payment. This was not a problem for me but it could be for someone on a tight budget as it takes a few days for the refund

The service in the restaurant was appalling- non existent. When we FINALLY received our food, it was uncooked! We ordered two meals and both had to be sent back. In the end we received a refund and we were forced to eat elsewhere.

Very good stay, great staff, only downside was the duvet was too small for the bed, it only just fit the bed without anyone in it, so once in it, we fought all night for a piece of cover.

Value for money

Check in was easy, the guy was so helpful- I think he was called Mackenzie! Let us check in 20 mins early as the room was ready, explained how we could walk to the NEC. Room was fine, beds were comfy, it was fairly clean , shower worked well. Breakfast was amazing, fresh pancakes my son loved! Overall an amazing stay for the price

Review I had a disappointing experience during my stay at this establishment. The service was extremely poor, and the receptionist (old woman) was rude, unhelpful, and lacked basic politeness in their communication. I was promised an extra bed, which I never received. Additionally, they assured me they would replace the uncomfortable sofa double bed with two separate ones, but they failed to deliver on that promise. The bed quality was absolutely terrible and made for an unpleasant sleep. The bathroom was also subpar, with water not draining properly and the bidet sometimes not functioning at all. As for breakfast, it was very modest with limited options and fell far below expectations. Overall, I would not recommend this place due to the lack of service and poor facilities.
