“This property targets both business and family needs, with versatile meeting spaces and proximity to Birmingham's attractions. Complimentary breakfast and a gym add value, though some may find the location slightly removed from the city center's immediate bustle. I think it makes a practical, if not luxurious, base for exploring the area.”

the room was very comfy and tidy enough.
I had issues with the tv. It kept losing signal. the remote barely worked, and i struggled to change channels. the breakfast was a joke. Barely any options were available, and what was there tasted bland. it was a disappointing start to the day.
