Decent

For the price, cannot complain. Its student accommodation so you will be sharing with students during their summer holidays. So dont expect 3-5 star service/ cleanliness. I was satisfied with my stay, it fit the purpose.

Liked: Cleanliness
Good studio apartment but remember that this is Student Accommodation. Do not book if you have mobility problems. I had not seen that there was no lift and I was in Birmingham for pain treatment for joints. All flats are accessed by stairs only. You also need photo id and bring your own bin bags. Very clise to city centre and good range of shops literally on doorstop.
