- Mike (7/5): - Уютные аппарты. Удобно для семьи. Хорошее расположение, тихий район, пешая доступность до ресторанов и магазинов. Удобно для мероприятий в Арене. Приятная приветственная корзинка снеков и воды. Отсутствие фена, туалетных ёршиков.
- Beiwen (9/5): - Very convenient is the place very easy to check in No hair dryer
- Pauline (8/5): Great location very comfortable apartment. - Great location . Accommodation was clean towels and bedding smelt really fresh. There was 4 staying living area was a little small not enough seating. Kitchen needs updating but everything was very clean and everything you needed was there. Showers were fabulous, water nice and hot and very modern. Just kitchen needed updating and seating area small.
- Celia (8/5): - Clean nicely designed everything we needed
- neil (10/5): Would stay here again! - Instructions were easy. Location is close to town and ICC. Accommodation is modern, clean and comfortable. Tea/coffee facilities on arrival were a bonus. Welcome basket of goodies was a treat! No hairdryer
- Mia (8/5): - I have stayed in this property a couple of times now and I can honestly say I feel more safe here than most places! Very homely and whenever u need an answer for something I get a message back within an hour. Always clean and washing machine has a drying option which I love! Can’t think of anything bad to be honest
- Cathryn (10/5): - Convenience of the location, easy to access. The online accommodation manual was very useful.n Nothing
- HannahRobxo (8/5): - The apartment had absolutely everything you need from a fridge to a washing machine. Big full sized windows which open really wide (good for when it's warm!) 2 en suite bathrooms attached to each bedroom with a big rainfall shower. Amazing location a short walk away from Brindley Place. Keys were easy accessible in a lockbox outside the apartment door. The whole apartment was lovely, clean and spacious and the host had even left some drinks and snacks for us free of charge! This room suited 3 adults and 1 child brilliantly 😊 The beds were a little too soft for my liking but that's just preferance & the apartment building across the road can be quite noisy in the evenings when trying to get a child to sleep, with people coming in and out of the building shouting, a car belonging to a resident pulling up blasting music and running a loud engine for a long time, revving his car too. This happened every night and for a long time. It's obviously nothing to do with the host, but just something to be aware of if you're staying with children.
- Carolyn (8/5): Enjoyable first visit to Birmingham. - Location was excellent for access to the centre by foot.
Generally perfect size for two individuals, and comfortable.
There was space also for luggage.
Good facilities. A shower head was not secure so fell off and was difficult to get back into position.
The pull blinds in the bedroom did not close completely giving the feeling of being not quite private.
- Taylor (9/5): Cosy and nice - It was a cosy apartment, nice size, very clean, had all the amenities, very nice touch with water in the fridge, ice in the freezer, and snacks, towels so we didn't need to over pack, mini shower gel and shampoo available For the single bed room it was awkward with the left bed to plug your phone charger in as it is right behind the head board, and the beds were quite sprung loaded so almost launched me out of bed at one point which was quite funny really, the pillows were uncomfortable but this is a personal opinion as I'm sure others will find it more comfortable. There was a temperature control by the door but it didn't do anything and didn't seem like there was any air con unit attached for it (not sure if we just didn't know how to use it) so it was stifling hot on the first day (but equally it was the hottest day of the year and the windows were shut with the curtains open when we arrived so the sun was just beaming in all day cooking the rooms). All in all it was a good stay though
- Christian (9/5): Superb -
- Anna (9/5): Excellent place to stay near the centre of Birmingham. - Great location - near the centre of everything!
Property was well equipped and comfortable.
Hosts had organised everything - cleaning, key, toiletries and towels, kitchen was well organised with everything we needed - even a washing machine if you needed one! Nothing - It was all good!
- Phil (9/5): A well equipped apartment in a good area close to the picturesque canals in a quiet road. - A well equipped apartment in a good area close to the picturesque canals in a quiet road.
- Donald (10/5): Exceptional - Very comfortable and clean
- Ye (6/5): Good overall - The location is very nice. Clean overall. Comfortable to stay. There’s not enough hot water for shower. After 2-3 minutes of hot water, it gets really cold. So basically impossible for the four of us shower one after another
- Zoe (10/5): We booked this last minute because our other accommodation got cancelled and this property saved the day for us, beautif - Clean, spacious , well presented and beautiful decor Nothing it was perfect
- Archer (8/5): Nice place to stay and good value for money - The property was modern and exactly what we wanted it to be for our weekend away. The location was close to city centre and right on the kanal. People were also helpful when booking and instructions clear on what was needed from us The only negative I would say is that we had no hot water for our stay, which did mean cold showers but apart from that everything was good.
- Sivakumar (9/5): Great place to stay! - Very nicely maintained and lovely apartment. The host had also stocked up on biscuits, chocolates, drinks. Beds were very comfortable too. Nothing
- Winnee (8/5): Very good - Location was perfect, the unit is clean, WIFI is okay. The host was quick in assisting us when we needed something, and was provided the next day. Great customer service! Not a big issue but it would have been great if the TV in the bedroom has the same access as in the living room's TV (e.g., BBC Channel 4).
- Katie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jade (8/5): Lovely - I liked the apartment all around The fact the WiFi wouldn't connect and when trying to connect someone for help I wouldn't get no answer
- Manish (10/5): Awesome and very comfortable - Location is awesome and the host is very helpful and co-operative. Na
- Jamie (10/5): Exceptional - Given an address to securely pick up the keys and it was so easy and trouble-free
- Brian (8/5): Apartment itself is great, but please advise upfront about the distance to from your key collection point - Nice layout, clean and comfortable 20 minute walk with suitcases to collect and drop off the keys was not advertised upfront.
- Melanie (10/5): Excellent location, comfortable apartment, well equipped, great communication - Location was perfect Collecting the keys offsite from a shop - never had to do that before
- Vinícius (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sarah (7/5): Good - I liked the location close to city centre and was really clean The double bed was super uncomfortable had to leave one day early
- Sharon (10/5): Exceptional - The little touches of water in the fridge , juice and biscuits makes all the difference. I'm afraid the mattresses were a little too soft for my liking but that's my preference. Having to travel to get the key would be so much better to have a lock box outside the apartment.
- Sai (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mark (8/5): Very good - Key collection pain in the butt
- Dale (10/5): Exactly what we needed - Excellent property, very clean and perfect location for what we needed. Parking could be an issue if the street is busy though Nothing
- Charlotte (9/5): Superb -
- Parvez (10/5): Superb ! - The apartment is superb, well laid out, clean with everything you could need all self contained for a superb stay. Location is very nice and has ample street parking. The staff are very polite and professional and it has some really nice touches like water and fruit for guests to enjoy.
Anyone visiting Birmingham with family should look no further then this property for their stay.
- Nicole (10/5): We had a fantastic time here - The property was spotless and fresh Nothing
- Noura (6/5): Pleasant -
- David (10/5): Amazing we will 100% be back to stay here - Clean, beautiful, great location, beds very comfortable, 5 minutes walk to the arena, communication from Sam was fantastic, helpful, friendly and quick to reply to any questions I had, nothing was to much, even greeted to a fresh bowl of snacks and drinks Nothing
- Benjamin (5/5): Close to Arena , ok for a short stay - Close to Utilita Arena Birmingham No parking , no blackout curtains , lack of privacy , awkward way to check in/ get flat keys.
- Amir (10/5): Exceptional - Location The check-in system was poor. We spend more money on taxi for collecting keys. The key pickup locations are so far from the apartment .
- Jasmin (8/5): Very good - It’s was clean, modern decor was cool and we appreciated the hamper-thank you! Good location! The cleaner/staff who prepared for our stay did a great job-so thank them. The beds were super uncomfortable..the mattresses were really poor quality-this was the consensus amongst all of those who stayed in the beds. The sofa bed seemed much better though. The neighbours opposite at 402 were super loud, both music and people coming in and out which didn’t make for a restful stay on our last night particularly as we needed to be out at 10am.
- Lynn (10/5): The apartment was lovely and perfect for five of us staying. Very comfortable beds. - The property was beautiful and
Very well equipped. Nothing
- Yvonne (10/5): Perfect location for arena - we will 100% be back - Super clean, easy to find
Spotless ! Only thing I would say if I have to say anything negative is that it would be easier if the key could be dropped in a safety box onsite rather than go back to the coat cutter … nothing bad to say about the property whatsoever
- Hutchings (8/5): Ideal apartment - Clean, comfortable, everything that we needed was there. Two separate en suites. Collecting and returning the key from a location over 20 minutes away by foot (we did not have a car)
- Kamila (10/5): Great location nice flat with 2 bathrooms 👍 - All we needed was there. There was quiet a lot of dust underneath the beds. Location of the keys - 20 min walking (unconvenient)
- Ackley (6/5): Pleasant - Location and decor. Lack of customer service skills.
- Sally (10/5): Spacious and Modern Apartment in Heart of Birmingham - I recently stayed at the Lock side Apartment and was very impressed with the accommodation. I booked a two bedroom apartment that could easily sleep six people.
The apartment was located right in the heart of Birmingham, within walking distance of New Street Station, the Bullring shopping center, and many restaurants and bars. Upon entering, I found the apartment to be very modern and newly renovated.
There was an open concept living area with comfortable sofa bed, a flat screen TV’s, and a dining table for four. The kitchen was fully equipped with new stainless steel appliances, and everything needed to cook meals.
The two bedrooms were spacious and furnished with plush king bed, 2 single beds and bedding. There was plenty of storage space in the wardrobes , The bathroom was pristine and stocked with complimentary toiletries.
Throughout my stay, I found the apartment peaceful and quiet
Overall, I was very impressed with the Lock side Apartment. The apartment exceeded my expectations, and the location could not be beat. I would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking to stay in central Birmingham. I'll certainly book this apartments again for my next visit.
- Gornell (5/5): Poor response from host. Host offered discount on next stay but could not offer discount from this stay to compensate fo - Location was central to theatre (REP) bars and dining No bedding provided for third bed despite notifying host on arrival this was not remedied. No cleaning materials to wash pots or wipe surfaces despite notifying host on arrival . Host stipulated all pots must be washed but did not provide resources .
Key located at a garage 10 mi s drive from the apartement which resident needed to collect and return .
Despite the host previously agreeing an early check in for 2:00 to 3:00 the host stated that check in would be at 4:00. When challenged offered 3:00 at the earliest .
- Abhi (8/5): Good stay - House keeping was to good standard and clean. So it feel like keeping it clean the same way Door handles need TLC and Flush in master bed need TLC.
- Funso (9/5): Superb - Fantastic facilities and very close to major shops for shopping . Ben was a wonderful person .would have to meet him . Will love to visit again . Distance from the apartment to the key nest and the blind in the single bed room
- Kelly (7/5): The property was in a location where we needed, but probably wouldn't rush to stay again - There was plenty of space in the apartment, and really benefitted from the two bathrooms, as we were a group of 5 adults. The furnishings were comfortable and although we didnt need for one nights stay, the extras like a washing machine and iron were a nice touch. The apartment block was quite (apart from the neighbours setting off the smoke alarm on their landing from their cooking) and the location wasnt noisy at all considering near main roads
the host , Sam, was really great when we asked for an early check in and the £30 extra cost was easy to manage The stay was good, but a few things that would make the stay great:
1 - its advertised for 6 people, however cutlery/plates/cups etc only catered for 4, So meal times and general hot drinks were awkward to manage when all together, should have a couple more settings for the extra occupancy.
2 - the cleanliness of the apartment wasn't great. whilst surfaces had been wiped over, the dust and dirty on floors and skirting boards was visible from a distance. if you had a mop or hoover in the apartment, we would have cleaned it as we didn't want to walk bare foot. Mirrors had been wiped with a dirty cloth. The shower plug in the on suite was blocked with long dark hairs, and the same hairs were visible around the apartment
3 - the key nest location was 10 mins drive from the property. originally we were going to come into the city by train, however decided to drive. Thank goodness we did as the distance we would have travelled to get the key would have been a pain without own transport. This extra step needs to be clear before booking as we had booked the accommodation based on the distance from our night time event. Can a key safe/door code be used on the property?
4 - I was astounded to get a text message at 18:30 from Minut, to tell me "we hope you are enjoying your stay, we've detected noise levels that are higher than allowed in this home". I had acknowledged the quiet times on the booking of 8pm to 7am at the time of booking, so to get this message whilst we were sat around the dinner table having our dinner and enjoying a general laugh and chat, really felt like an invasion. the Minut device is directly above the table in the ceiling which probably didnt help, however the noise level was not excessive for an afternoon meal time with 5 people.
5 - parking is a pain, nothing that can be done from the hosts point of view, but tied into the fact you have to drive for the KeyNest, its something that any future occupants need to consider
