Comfortable Private Room with own kitchenette in a shared house - Selly Oak Birmingham R4

Lovely furnishing, great aesthetic, comfortable and private

Nothing

The room was decorated really lovely, it was light and airy with everything you could think of in there.

When I first arrived I was stuck outside for about 20 minutes on the phone to the owner and her brother because the instructions to get in were correct but the cleaner had left the the key box ever so slightly open so the codes didn't work in the box. The shared bathroom was filthy, I messaged the staff and I was told hours later, something vague like I will look into it. I was staying there for 2 days and would have hoped it could have been cleaned. I asked for another towel to stand on as I got out of the shower as the bath mat and hand towel in there was filthy but wasn't directed to where I could find one. There are also no quiet hours so I was woken up by one of the guests staying there also at 4 in the morning doing a workout in the kitchen and slamming doors and clanging pots and pans for about an hour until I went and asked him to keep the noise down. I was then woken up by the neighbour, blasting music from 8am until 9.30, I was honestly shattered with the broken sleep and lack of. The heating was on all night and no way of turning it down as the controls had been taken off the radiator so I was in and out of sleep on top of the noise.

Nice place with good room facilities

Extremley hilarious as continuously someone drilling in wall for two days on morning. Disturbance was at peak

I loved our stay, the room was cosy and was beautiful, plenty of storage for our stuff which I liked, it was peaceful throughout the house which I also liked and the kitchen facilities, we could cook, there was a washing machine so we could do some washing, a dishwasher and cleaning products available so it was easier to clean the kitchen after we had done cooking

The neighbours were a little bit of a nightmare they were banging on the wall and complaining about the noise and then for three days straight all they were doing was drilling and hammering which was annoying and made it difficult for me and my boyfriend to relax for the rest of our stay there, if it wasnt for those neighbours I would definitely stay again
