Birmingham City Centre, Metropolitan House

The bathroom and kitchen have been fitted to a high standard and overall the lounge area was nice. The building and flat were secure, and our stay was quiet. Owners very friendly and easy to contact when we had a query. The double windows helped with traffic noise, although there are no curtain coverings which meant it was bright daylight from early hours and not ideal to sleep.

There were lots of stains on the bedding, the duvet cover on the main bed had what looked/felt like glue. The spare bedding for the sofa bed was not made for us, and we only had discoloured sheets to use. The pillows and duvet itself seemed old and yellow-stained. Towels were crispy instead of fluffy and again felt old. Stains/cracks also on the bedroom ceiling and walls and plug sockets coming out of the walls in both living room and bedroom.

Facilities were clean and good value for money

No milk for a cup of tea

The property is only a 10 minute walk to the centre, with everything you need for your stay.
