Great hotel and only 15 minute walk to town centre. No parking but there is a public car park a 5 min walk away which was £11 for 24hrs. Room and bathroom great size and very clean. Comfortable bed. Breakfast was mostly good but only eggs were scrambled and they and the bacon were hard as sat under heat lamps

Mediocre stay

Great welcome area, incredible staff, bar lovely, great free pool table to keep all entertained. Lovely bar food, pizza especially. Room wasn't thoroughly clean. Beds were ok. Noise was unpleasant. Doors are loud and slam shut unless you close slowly, they're heavy! Overall is ok for a weekend spot to sleep. Bedding didn't smell fresh and clean. Towels were lovely. Room felt like it needed a deep clean, hoover and dust required. Bathroom needed a thorough deep clean too.

Very nice w/some items to note

The hotel and rooms are of a high standard and the staff is kind and helpful. Aston Uni is across the street which seems a good place for a walk. Three things to be aware of: 1. If you have perfume sensitivities, the lobby and bar are treated with a perfume which can be a problem for you. We tried to move through quickly to minimise our bodies’ reactions. 2. There is no loading/unloading area in front for luggage. If a Ringgo space in front happens to be open and no warden, you may be able to get away with borrowing that for 5 min. Otherwise, getting luggage to/from your car can be awkward. 3. The pillows are soft feather-type, which means the compress flat under your head. If you need medium or high loft pillows, you’ll want to check with hotel staff to see if those are available.

Pleasant Stay

I stayed at the hotel a day before I was to continue there for a conference. Whitney is amazing!!! Just awesome! Nothing was too much trouble. However, I asked the gent in the mornings at the desk to please refill my shower gel and he didn't - I had to ask Whitney and it was done almost immediately. Breakfast was ok - wasn't awesome. Not a lot of choice in drinks and no hot chocolate for those who do not drink coffee. It was a very nice stay, just wish that the shower gel and shampoo was checked daily and refilled if you are going to use the bigger bottles.

Family friendly hotel

We had a great stay for two nights. First time in a hotel with 3 small children. Staff were very accommodating and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. My only suggestion for small improvement would be more storage space for clothes/toiletries etc. Even hooks for towels would’ve been useful. But these were very minor things and we found our overall experience to be an excellent one!
