small room but served its purpose. It was clean. Soaps/shampoos provided in shower. Clean towels and linens.

I had contacted owner twice to request 2pm check in, which was essentially me dropping off my bags because I had an event from 3pm till 9pm. Unfortunately I did not hear back at all. Stopped by at 2pm and cleaning person was there, let me drop off my bags. Owner sent me wrong code for my room so I was essentially locked out. As I'm visiting from another country, I had no wifi since the password was inside the room and had to walk back out to the street and find a signal to contact owner who promptly sent over the correct code. Owner was apologetic but was a frustrating experience nonetheless. I kept thinking what would have happened had I not returned to the room till later on and if the owner was asleep. I didn't see any thermostat either to adjust the temperature.

I try to book there whenever I am in Birmingham as I am assured of a good night’s sleep in the clean and comfortable beds. The showers in the en suite bathrooms are roomy with ample freshly laundered towels. Each room has its own unique decor which is in keeping with the aesthetic of Bournville Village. The individual pieces of vintage furniture add to the charm of the place for me. There is a kettle, plates, cutlery, tea, fresh coffee, milk and small fridge in each room. Breakfast is available for a very reasonable £8 (Feb 2024) in the café below if booked the night before.

It’s all good.

The room was warm on arrival. Key codes to go to your room.lots of plugs. Decoration was very nice. Wifi access. Bathroom was spacious and up to date.

The toilet had not been flushed. Fridge disturbed sleep. It was very cold at night and in the morning. The carpet needs cleaning. Stairs up to the room, the carpet was not vaccumed. Bed was uncomfortable. Sweat stained pillow cases ( blue ducks the bed need replacing. I kept swaying when I moved. Very tired decoration. Painted walls are not finished. Wallpaper peeling away. Huge cracks in the wall as you come through room door. It is not suitable for people with mobility issues.

The room was comfy and warm, very clean and a quiet location. Generous supply of tea/coffee & chocolate supplies. Was originally nervous to turn up alone, on foot, in the dark and in the snow to use key codes, with no staff on premises, but it worked ok.

I had a very early start in the morning, so heating hadn't come on, suppose my visit/requirements were probably an exception. But as this is near to the ROH, there may be other guests needing to shower early before admission. I underestimated the walking distance to the main road, but that would have been easier if not through snow drifts!

Super convenient to book last minute when visiting a friend in the city centre. Place was cosy and exactly what we needed for the night. Great value for money! Loved that there was a mini fridge to use. Would definitely recommend! Bathroom was clean. And we enjoyed breakfast in the cafe the next morning. Lovely pancakes !

Bed was not the most comfy. Was okay for the night but wouldn't want to stay an extended time. There was what seemed like a duvet on top of the mattress (I assume to make it more comfy) but that just moved around in the night and bunched up underneath you. Other than that, place was perfect 👌

The room was a very Good size, the bathroom was very modern and fitted 3 people in the shower (1 not so small adult,tall man and a toddler). The bed was really comfortable and we all slept well. Our room was above the cafe so once it is closed our 3 year old was running in the room (as toddlers do) we caused no disruption for noise downstairs so that was really good. In good location for train station and Cadbury even with me with limited mobility. People who worked there were really friendly and the breakfast in the cafe was brilliant our son loved ice cream on pancake for breakfast and they accommodated for a change in my breakfast very well. (I don't like warm tomatoes so I have mine raw) the coffee is really nice. Decor is very cool. The cafe users were really friendly.

The stairs are quite steep to the rooms so take it really easy. This property will be unsuitable for wheelchair users but the cafe accommodated to a wheelchair user Friday morning breakfast!

I thought that this room was excellent. Very large having 2 double beds in it which was fantastic because i didn't need to share with my 5 year old granddaughter. This room offered all the facilities we needed for a 1 night stay and even went to the effort of providing crockery and cutlery for those who wished to get a takeaway. Great value for money. We had breakfast in the cafe under the room and met the owner, very friendly lady and the food was gorgeous.

It was quiet, comfortable, clean and homely. The old fashioned furniture and tea cups, etc were clearly deliberate to get the period look which we appreciated. Don't expect a modern feel. The beds were comfortable, the shower was good and even though it was only a few degrees outside in February, the room was warm enough as it had two radiators which were giving out enough heat. There are three coded locks to get in for which the codes were sent by text and email in good time. We were happy with this arrangement.

WiFi didn't work as it didn't reach to that bedroom. It worked out in the corridor but that's not very useful. Its 2024, please sort that out The towels, although clean, were very rough. Very steep stairs to get in but we knew that from other reviews so it wasn't a problem but don't visit if you have mobility issues.

Had a lovey feel to it, love the room size and the character. Very well organised with keypads and messages from owner. Felt historic would be good to know a bit more about the building. Loved looking in the garden at the back. Great area. Nice to see businesses under the rooms being used amd next time we will visit the cage downstairs just Had a early drive off today but I think the opening times are great. Maybe could do a add on extra for a snack bag that can be left in room if people are leaving early with fruit or something inside it. Charge the guests if they would like this etc. But it's not at all a negative its just a idea. Enjoyed it.

I think the road is really busy but thank goodness we had a back room but this is nothing the owner can change as it's just busy roads in a beautiful residential area which is a shame but its everywhere not just here.

The location was very convenient for where I wanted to be and there are useful shops around. It was pretty quiet in the room. The bathroom was modern and spacious and nicely decorated. The bed was comfortable and the room was well equipped.

The large sash window on the first floor had no catch of any kind on it, which was concerning from a security point of view as someone could put a ladder up and get in easily. Someone had switched off the fridge at the mains and left it shut so it was mouldy.
