Pleasant Apartment in near Birmingham City Center

Cheap and close to coach station

Cleanliness and smell

Good location for Birmingham city centre. Good price for such a location. Very large room.

The price comes at a cost. The room had evidently had a smoker in, in the not too distant past. The sofa was stained and the blinds were broken. One of the electric sockets simply didn't work (with a broken switch), one of the lamps had a plug with a snapped earth pin, and there was no sign of any portable appliance testing certification stickers (which, among other things, would never pass a plug with only two pins left...). Some of these things need sorting out. Budget options are welcome and expectations should not be too high, but as it stands this room falls below a minimum standard.

Heating

Not much,it was dirty, below basic, clear that there was drug abuse happening before my arrival, empty pill packets, rubber bands used to pump veins for herione use and no cleaner disposed of these just left in draws and empty crisp/ food wrappers left around, broken blinds, 1 towel for 2 people, wood under the mattress to support a broken bed. The mirror and shelf just collapsed when I put my shower gel and etc on it and they trying to charge me £30 for it, I won't be paying for. Will never use this "apartment" again. Worst place I have ever stayed

Nothing, it is not a pleasant apartment, it’s a doss house for foreign workers.

Cold, dirty, someone else’s dirty laundry piled up all over the kitchen work tops, other guests glaring at us and having loud arguments outside our room that went on for over half an hour.

I kid you not; these are the real pictures of this ‘not so pleasant apartment’. Everything was broken and dirty. The whole apartment smelled of constant cigarette smoke throughout my stay. The cheap price tag is for a reason, and you’ll only find out the hard way. I wouldn’t recommend this place to my worst enemy.
