The hotel is conveniently located near the airport, NEC, and Genting Arena, making it perfect for travelers with flights or event attendance. The rooms are comfortable, though basic, with flexible bedding arrangements. The service is efficient, with polite staff, but some issues at the bar. Dining options are typical buffet fare at a slightly higher price. Overall, a convenient choice for a short stay near the airport.

The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were pretty basic, lacking washcloths and toiletries, especially considering the lower rate. However, the staff was excellent. Unfortunately, the overpriced stay was marred by non-functional WIFI and disappointing restaurant service.

The hotel is incredibly quiet, making it one of the quietest places I've stayed at. The rooms, while small and claustrophobic, give off a cozy vibe, though I suspect some were converted from storage cupboards or walk-in wardrobes, possibly to offer budget options. The service can be a bit challenging due to various accents, so it's advisable to travel light. The location is ideal for accessing the airport, especially for early flights, and being close to NEC. However, the dining experience could have been better as they struggled to keep up with demand, leading to shortages of plates and glasses. The hotel is strategically located between IBIS Budget and IBIS Hotel entrances, making it convenient for travel.

I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms had all we needed for the night, they were clean and very minimalistic. The location of the hotel was excellent, making it convenient for travelers with early morning flights. The service was top-notch, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate our needs. However, the dining experience left something to be desired with limited options available during certain hours.

The hotel is perfect for those who need a place to rest after a busy day or before catching an early flight. The rooms, although small, serve their purpose well despite the lack of a chair and the issue with the heating. The service, while generally helpful, had a moment of miscommunication. The location is ideal for easy access to Birmingham central or the NEC. The dining experience, although plain, was convenient for attending events. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The location was incredibly convenient being just a short walk from the airport and the NEC, but the room I was given was less than ideal, being situated right behind the lift shaft.

The hotel falls on the budget side among the better ibis hotels. The room was spotless, pristinely new, and perfectly designed, reminiscent of cruise ship cabins. While small, it offers a great experience. The service was a bit frantic at 12noon but efficient, with reasonably priced good food available. The location, only a two-minute walk from the airport entrance, is extremely quiet at night. The dining options start early, ideal for early flights, though the quality may vary. The facilities are suitable for an overnight stay.

The hotel is ideally located near the airport terminal, making it convenient for late-night flights or events at the NEC. The rooms are somewhat small and can feel cramped, but they offer a view of the runway from a distance. The service is friendly and helpful, although there were some issues with staff knowledge. The dining options were bland and somewhat overpriced. Overall, the location is excellent for airport access, but some aspects could be improved.

The hotel offers a fantastic 'pod' bathroom, making it one of the best hotel showers I've experienced in a long time. However, the room size was a bit small for the price. The service was welcoming, although at times, it seemed the staff were more focused on each other. The proximity to the airport was excellent for a quick stopover, but finding the hotel in the dark could be challenging. Overall, a convenient location with great amenities.

Arriving at 3 am, the walk to Birmingham airport departures was a steal at £31. The room was clean, comfortable, and kept me warm despite the wet and windy weather.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although small and basic, were clean and functional, but we faced some challenges cooling the room with the AC. The service was disappointing overall, with unhelpful staff and a lackluster approach. On the positive side, the location was convenient for airport access and had necessary facilities nearby, but the chaotic ambiance was a downside. Dining options were limited, and there were additional charges for simple requests, which was not ideal.
