6/10 Good
26 December 2024
Cheap but worth shortfalls for central location.
We booked this hotel because of the really central location for the price, and the reviews on hotels.com weren't too bad but after booking I looked at google reviews and was horrified as they were much worse. We were so worried after that because of reports of bedbugs and dirty rooms etc but after arriving it was actually fine for the price and location, you get what you pay for. The room was dirty round the edges but the bed linen was clean and we checked the mattress for signs of bedbugs but didnt find anything. The mattress did have some stains but it was comfy enough. Our twin room had a balcony and we could see some mattresses and bed bases discarded out the back so I assume they did deal with the bedbug issue.
The bathroom was very small but looked like it had been done up more recently than the rest of the room and was fine for a 3 night stay.
Everywhere was walkable within 30 mins and it is right next to the Heineken experience!
The lady at hotel reception who checked us in was lovely and the other hotel you have to check in is literally 30seconds away from aston city.
If you are happy with a basic room and arent too fussy to get a great budget trip for a fraction of the price of other central hotels then I recommend.
