This is a strong choice for budget travellers, concert-goers and anyone arriving by train who just needs a clean, central bed. Guests mention a short walk to New Street Station, the O2 Academy and city centre shops.
The breakfast range is wide on paper: continental, Full English or Irish, vegetarian, vegan, halal and gluten-free options in a buffet. Pets are tagged, though the policy and any fee are not confirmed.
Skip it if you are a light sleeper. Guests report that thin walls let in noise from corridors, lifts and neighbouring rooms.

What guests say
Location is the top positive: a short walk to New Street Station, the O2 Academy and the shops.
Staff are described as friendly, with a warm welcome and helpful service.
Soundproofing is the clear weakness. Thin walls allow noise from corridors, lifts and neighbouring guests to come through. Ask for a room away from the lifts if you can.
