Ibis Budget Birmingham Centre

Good value for money and convenient location

Plussat: The location is very convenient and the area seemed generally safe. It was under a ten minute walk to train station, bullring and Mailbox district. The decor is fresh, new and well maintained. I was impressed how much they seem to have invested in lighting. It was quite sophisticated and for a small room there were several different options and it created a relaxing environment. They are a green hotel and leave reminders to switch off lights and reuse towels. It was good to see that they care about our environment. Overall, it is great value for money and I would definitely stay here again.

Miinukset: The room seemed really clean except for the floor. It wasn't exactly dirty, it just didn't seem like it had been swept properly. The shower unit was a bit weird as it is separate from the toilet and the door is opaque and opens up right into the bedroom. This wouldn't be a problem for a solo traveler or a couple (to be fair this was a room with only one double bed) however I'm sure in some situations this would be awkward. However, these are really minor things and really didn't bother me. The pros definitely outweigh the cons for this hotel.

Plussat: Very good location. Comfortable bed. Nice room despite small size

Miinukset: No tea/coffee making facilities. Heating in room didn't work well so quite cold.
