Guest Reviews

• Olumide (9/5): -
• Ambra (5/5): - Stanza accogliente. Fermata del bus vicina. Abbiamo soggiornato in due, ma al nostro arrivo era presente UN SOLO ASCIUGAMANO. Nonostante ne avessimo richiesto un altro il mattino seguente, non abbiamo ricevuto alcuna risposta da parte dell'host. Il wifi non andava e la cucina non era pulita, dunque non abbiamo potuto usufruire di diversi servizi a cui avevamo diritto.
• Ciro (7/5): -
• Blessing (3/5): I didn’t enjoy my stay because it was too noisy and loud. - It was clean It was too loud and noisy
• James (5/5): -
• Ali (1/5): Hold dere langt unna dette stedet. Etter min erfaring er dette en vert man bør unngå. - Værste verten du kan komme bort i. Dette var uten tvil en av de mest ubehagelige opplevelsene jeg har hatt med et overnattingssted. Verten opptrådte ekstremt uprofesjonelt og virket mer opptatt av å kreve ekstra betaling enn å sørge for et normalt opphold for gjestene. Jeg ble presset til å betale penger uten noen tydelig eller rimelig forklaring. Kommunikasjonen var ubehagelig og skapte en svært dårlig atmosfære under hele oppholdet. Opplevelsen føltes utrygg og lite seriøs, og jeg satt igjen med inntrykket av at gjester blir forsøkt utnyttet økonomisk.
• Ali (10/5): -
• Missed (1/5): Cheap - Nice takeaway round the corner No TV, no Power in bathroom. Drafty windows.
• James (10/5): Same room,same time period and duration, twice in two years and same quality no complaints. - Everything all the forks had disappeared, naughty previous guests😀
• Kyaw (10/5): -
• shona (10/5): -
• Blanca (8/5): Good quality and potential but in some aspects could be better . - The location and environment were definitely the best part of the stay. There were lack of facilities such as forks, knives, towels… But the rest was okay
• Sarah (8/5): -
• FAIZ (3/5): - .. .
• Bodunde Tope (7/5): -
• Nico Karnincic (6/5): - The room was good. The kitchen doesn't have what it takes for cooking simple staff. In the bathroom there wasn't toilet paper.
• Reynold (9/5): -
• Cindy (2/5): Just about bare able - Friendly owners Advertising washing machine. It was broke and had been for some time. Bed was very unstable, oven not working kettle leaked coffee maker broke, curtain rail falling down one end , blinds didn’t properly open and close. Other tenants never cleaned the shared kitchen and took our milk . Very noisy above my room . Towels smelt of dogs could use them luckily I had my own. No bidet as advertised just a shower on the floor . Other than that it was ok. Does not warrant the name majestic just bog standard
• aliysha (6/5): -
• Isaac (10/5): -
• Mirani (7/5): - Die Küche und das Geschirr. Wenn man im Raum Nummer 1 ist, dann hat man Pech gehabt. Das Problem ist, wenn sich die Leute im Zimmer 2 über Nacht bewegen, wird man vom Schlaf aufgewacht, da der Boden richtig veraltet ist. Es quetscht in der Maße, dass du gar nicht schlafen kannst, während die Leute oben in Bewegubg sind.
• Awoyale (9/5): Beautiful place - Its a nice place The environment is cool The staffs are very kind I also enjoyed the fact that I had access to kitchen I came with packs of food and I was able to warm and eat ..all together it was a lovely stay My room was on the 2nd floor If I was informed earlier I would have saved my strength..it was very challenging to drag my bags upstairs
• Adrian (10/5): -
• Harding (1/5): -
• Ann (5/5): Not the quietist location - Not a bad location Very very loud music using all Sunday afternoon and into the early hours. Car horns going alnight
• David (8/5): Not bad for the price 👌 - The location was ideal for my work and the price was very affordable and I would definitely stay again the bed was comfortable I had a good sleep The carpet and furniture could do with wet vacuum cleaning
• Crawford Hick (3/5): Don't stay here, - Nothing The room smelt of cigarette smoke, no breakfast offered. The place looks like an unlicensed HMO, it has a lot of weird sticky stiff on the sockets. The bathroom is full of mould, the shower glass does not have a plastic strip on the bottom why is this important it soaks the standard floor of the bathroom so after a shower the whole floor is wet ans slippery. The front electric box is open to the elements, wall.socket missing a cover in the bottom hallway, no emergency exit signs or fire extinguishers. It did not feel as a home stay as there was no one there, the owners/managers don't live on the premises..I am a person who has seen a.lot of similarly shoddy properties like this, with no care for the letting standards that are laid down tryong to circumvent the law and gain some extra money. It is not untill you see the how to get the key on a.private estate do you realise this is not what it seems and as for location its no where near the center its a good 15min bus ride and the nearest aldi and other shops is a 10.minute walk. Also.i asked for a ground floor room, but no.i got a room.at the top of the house eg 2 floors up as I have to walk with a stick this was very painful. Very unhappy customer.
• Ola (9/5): -
• Mi (7/5): - The bed was really comfy. There was no TV in the room. It was really hot in the room. And there was no blinds on the skylight window
• Adeel (3/5): -
• Nishant (10/5): Exceptional -
• Nonso (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alin (7/5): Unresolved problems - Check-in is easy, the location is about a 30-minute walk from the center, 20 from Villa Park, shops nearby, plus a historic pub (The Bartons Arms) across the road. Relatively quiet location. Wi-Fi more than decent. I received a message that I couldn't check in before 6pm because there were problems with the cleaning staff. I didn't consider it a problem, as I arrived after 10pm. But when I arrived, I was unpleasantly surprised to find only the bed made. Otherwise, it was obvious that nothing had been done. There were towels from the guests before me in the bathroom, leftovers in the basket, etc. In addition, the light in the bathroom wasn't working and the shower wasn't working either. I sent the owners a message with all this and they promptly replied that someone would come urgently to solve the problem. I waited for more than an hour, until I fell asleep. I stayed 3 nights and no one came and I didn't receive any more messages. I used the shower in the shared bathroom, but that's not what I paid for. I don't like to leave this comment, as I'm not a picky person, but it seems normal to me that those who want to stay should know about this problem. Attention! The TV does not have a cable and can only be used if you connect it with your own phone.
• Monika (7/5): Good - Easy to get to and check in The kitchen wasn’t very clean and not enough cutlery
• Alan (6/5): Pleasant -
• Muhammad (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast available/ very clean home so I give the 100% number Nothing
• Patience (9/5): Superb - The room was spacious clean it's good value for your money nothing at all
• Imran (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location near city centre. Nice and clean, New property 👍
• Samson (7/5): Good -
• Carolan (9/5): Superb -
• John (8/5): Very Nice Stay In A Good Location - The room itself was very nicely furnished. The shower room was very nice as well, and the shared kitchen was also very clean as well. The room was also very quiet for the duration of my stay as well. There was nothing particularly unlikeable about either my room, or the property itself.
• Esmaeel (10/5): I would stay there again - It was clean and very very welcoming
• Coleman (5/5): A decent room and a nice venue and location, a couple of things did let it down sadly. - The couch in the room was superb. Very comfortable and immaculate. The room was comfortable, well made up and clean. Getting into the property was difficult. I was sent four emails regarding the reservation and only one of them seemed to contain the keybox code. The youtube video, while certainly a good idea, wasn't entirely clear on where the location of the keybox was. The biggest problem by a country mile was the fact the skylight in the room had no blind and there was no obvious way of shutting the light out, meaning I was woken up at 8am on both days. This needs to be fixed please.
• Javier (9/5): Superb -
• Liam (10/5): Exceptional -
• Dr. (7/5): Good -
• Ciaran (2/5): Very poor - Smart tv. Hot shower if you pay extra for a private bathroom Parking is on the street but I didn't have issues finding a space It's a HMO, I was expecting a flat but was actually just a room in a house. No signs or details to show you how to get in to the house. You have to go around to the side to get the key. Noisy neighbours. Dogs barking. Loads of police sirens around the area Uncomfortable sleep. Smell of curry at times. Blinds didn't shut. Couldn't tell if the bedroom door was locked. Had to sign an agreement after paying to say if any injuries to me or if anything is stolen then they aren't liable. Lights are bad. Bathroom just flickers. Bedroom has one bright light. No switches or lamps by the bed. Overall it just seems dodgy and not up front
• Khaled (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ghebremichael (10/5): Exceptional -
• James (10/5): Exceptional -
• Patrik (7/5): Good -
• Durantini (8/5): Very good - The apartment was lovely and extremely clean. It’s located far enough from the city chaos but still close to the center. There is a nearby shopping center with supermarkets and essential stores. It’s a 20-minute walk to Aston Park, which is well worth a visit, and a 10-minute walk to the main street with various restaurants and shops. Unfortunately, the kitchen lacks pots and pans, making it unusable. As soon as we realized this, we kindly asked if they could provide them. We were thanked for contacting them and were told they would do their best and let us know, but this never happened. We specifically rented an apartment to be able to cook at home, as it’s something we enjoy doing together rather than always eating out, but it wasn’t possible.
• Babatunde (1/5): Not value for money - Location was good So many things. Firstly, the host isnt transparent. They didnt reveal on their property listing that I would have to divulge personal information like my ID card, phone number and even upload a selfie. My partner aso had to give them her details and upload a selfie too. I even had to sign a ridiculous rental agreement which completely absolves them of any blame if we got injured in their apartment (which almost happened by the way). If my belongings got stolen on their premises, they would not be liable regardless of the circumstances. If they had stated these upfront, I would never have booked their place. The kitchen does not have a single pot. What kind of kitchen doesnt have a pot? We had to boil eggs using the very old frying pan in the kitchen. My wife almost got scalded with hot water from the pan cos the handle of the pan turned 360 degrees when she tried to take it off the cooker. It was a miracle she wasnt hurt to say the least. By the terms of their rental agreement, they would not have been liable has she been scalded in that incident (see the attached photos) The room had no bins. Had to go out to the kitchen to dispose stuff everytime Poor lighting in the room as there was only 1 light bulb in the middle of the room. I couldnt read my papers in bed cos there were no bedside lamps They left us no extra bedsheets whatsoever. The pillows are really flat and uncomfortable, so was the bed There are loose floor boards in the room above us such that each time the tenant moved about in the room above us, we would hear the floor boards creaking rather loudly. That noise kept us awake for hours on end Definitely not the best place I have ever booked and would definitely not be booking this place in future
• Lisa (9/5): Superb - Cleanliness, facilities Area wasn’t the nicest but still very close to City Centre
• Remy (9/5): Superb - Mostly everything. Strange smell in my room, needed a good hoover, and found cigarette butts under the bed.
• Keita (1/5): Bad -
• Marcia (5/5): Passable - Location Very, very poor customer service To much flight of stairs to get to room There is no ensuite bathroom as suggested in advert Did not receive key lock information prior to getting to place, and was not provided WiFi code, so had no WiFi during my stay as suggested in advert.
• Richard (7/5): Good -
• Georgia (4/5): Dodgy, bad communication with whoever owns the property - clean, shared toiletries (but very hard to tell what's provided by the property and what belongs to other visitors, so I ended up using none). My room smelled like cigarettes, even though the property description explicitly says no smoking allowed. After the first night I found a couple of cigarette buds on the radiator grill, which was warming them up and the smell emanated to the whole room(I regret not taking pictures). The most frustrating thing is the inconsistencies with the facilities description on their page. They say they provide a desk and there was no desk in my room. They say you can contact them via WhatsApp for any problems or support you need, and the phone number they provided was not even on WhatsApp. Very bad at replying to messages, replied to none of my messages. They send you these pre-set messages on Booking for info on how to check in/out and what phone number to call, but they're very bad at replying even on Booking.com. The most frustrating thing is that they say they provide invoices, and turns out they don't even know if they do. I called them, because obv. no response to any messages, to request an invoice (as I was travelling for work and need an invoice to show to my employer) and they said they would do it and I still haven't received anything. Then why list this as one of your services? Another inconsistency, was the locked Netflix access, that required a code (not that I was dying to watch Netflix, but it's the principle of providing what you actually list on your description)...frustrating.
• D.r.s. (7/5): Good -
• Stephen (1/5): not good at all - nothing First night wrong room so wasn't what I paid for. 2nd night got moved and they was banging and hammering repairing the front door until half ten that night. kitchen wasn't equipped with anything to cook with. oven should be condemned as the buttons fell off.
• Hasan (4/5): Disappointing - Yh like but towel is too small
• Ohai (5/5): not satisfied - the sky view only 1.no window blind available 2.i kept calling for the heater in the room to work knowing I was wet due to rain and it seems heater was intentionally switch on and off at their time.to my amazement the kitchen, staircase and toilet heaters are working. 3.the advert portray the facilities where on same level where as the kitchen far downstairs and stressful.
• Predrag (4/5): Good location and OK clean and size wise. Default facilities were not available (tea, TV, towels) - Good location. Room (no 3 in my case) was suitable size wise. Decent ensuite bathroom as well. I was given only one small towel, so could not shower. No kettle or coffee machine in the room. TV was not connected hence could not be used. Wardrobe did not have any hangers. No garbage bin in the room. At the end I was asked to gather towels and bed sheets, and empty garbage bin. LOL ... there is always first time for something like this.
• Nexus (9/5): Superb -
• Austin (5/5): It was not bad good location but you need to check some of your facilities - Is clean and okay The room I was in the heating was not working
• Adrian (10/5): Villa Trip - 20 mins walk to villa park and 10 mins in a taxi to city centre so ideal location .Room and en suite bathroom clean, tv and good WiFi. Will be staying again when going to matches if available Nothing to complain about about
• Lian (9/5): Superb - I could check in after 12am as I arrived late which I appreciated the host for. Host was very helpful in answering my question. Definitely a plus point for me. Overall everything was fine with me. Room looks good. Toilet is clean. Bed thickness is alright as well. It was clean and comfortable. Nothing much. Everything is fine with me.
• Fred (8/5): Very good -
• Farzana (6/5): Unexpected - The staff were really pleasant .Getting to accommodation was relatively easy This accommodation was not for us ..I maybe should have read more regarding what sort of accommodation it was . Our room was okay..too many false flowers for my liking,toilets were full of cobwebs and insects.Too much outside noise (dogs barking )we didn't get to sleep and finally departed much earlier than expected.
• Junior (2/5): Very poor -
• Sharon (7/5): Good - Location for me made it easy to get around. Quiet neighborhood. The room smelled very strongly of cigarettes.
• Simon (8/5): Very good -
• Kothapalli (7/5): Good - Water was leaking In the room and there was no lock for the room
• Loveth (10/5): Exceptional -

• Khan (10/5): Amazing stay. - Everything was good it was a comfortable stay, they bathroom was spacious. I really liked the funny placard in the lobby. The host was very cooperative and responsive. It’s not a dislike, just a suggestion it well be good to have a mirror in the room so that guests can look how are they looking while going out. :) .
• J (8/5): Very good -
• Uruemu (9/5): Superb -
• Bernal (10/5): Exceptional - Nice room and the host is really reactive, it’s a good place to go
• The (6/5): Pleasant -
• Mohamed (6/5): Pleasant - The location is very good, not far away from the city center (about 15 mins by bus and 30 mins walking) and also close to Aston Villa's stadium (Villa Park). The check in and out is convenient. The kitchen is well equipped. The room is quite spacious and had a sofa as well as a couple of tables, one of them had a mirror on it. The bed was making squeaky noises whenever I turned on it. Some instructions were not clear at all especially at the check-in, how to lock the room/house door and how to close the curtains. You can contact them either on Booking's messages or on their Whatsapp but the response is not very quick and there is no one present to ask for help immediately.
• Nghĩa (10/5): Exceptional -
• Moses (10/5): Exceptional - Nice staff 10/10
• Zeenat (8/5): Very good -
• Angela (1/5): Bad -
• Tony (8/5): Very good - Everything was good Attention to detail No mirror, Putting numbers on the doors would help find the room and stop people banging on random doors asking if this was the bathroom happened twice while I was staying. Just do the little things all in all a good place to stay
• David (1/5): The dirtiest place in Birmingham - The room was dirty. It appeared that the hotel staff hadn't cleaned it. I noticed that the rubbish bin was already full with the trash of the previous guests. Furthermore, we had to request a change of the quilt and sheets as they had not been changed since the previous guest's stay. They were covered in hair and dandruff, which was quite unpleasant. Additionally, the room had a bad smell that was hard to ignore.
• Tony (7/5): Good - Ok but lacking in a few simple things, i booked the room with en suite, only a hand towel provided and no mirror in the en suite or in the room difficult for shaving. reasonable place to stay and I would stay their again.
• Erikas (6/5): Pleasant -
• Rohail (3/5): Poor - The room was nice The owner was very rude and the house is very crowded. He is disturbing doesn't have respect for his guests.
