Hotel berhampiran Faizan e Mushkil Kusha, Birmingham

There is so much to unpack here when it comes to Selina Birmingham. Never again am I staying at this hellhole of a hotel. For a name like Selina, the hotel sure is nightmarish to stay at. It's shameful that the hotel shares the same name with my non-biological/cosplay partner. There is no breakfast but at least, the bedding, the pillows and the duvet are comfy (but most likely due to the fact that I’m tired) and the wi-fi is decent. Unfortunately, this is where the compliments stop, especially when the dorm rooms are so dark, you have to turn on the flashlight on your phone in order to see. Not to mention, there is no television in the room I was staying in. To make matters worse, the dorm room is cold, coupled with no heating. I honestly don't mind the cold most of the time but the room temperature is too cold for my liking. Speaking of the ground floor, the Korean receptionist told me that I'm not allowed to eat my food at a table at the cafe and told me to climb the stairs all the way to the third floor in order to eat my food. It isn't fair, considering the receptionist with the short, dark hair tends to allow me to eat my food at a table at the cafe during the very early hours of the morning. I eventually lost my patience and yelled at the Korean receptionist. It's rare when I lose my patience. I threatened in a growly voice with, ”I suggest you fill the pot noodle to the top with water unless you want a scathing, negative review to be blasted on the radio for everyone to hear?”. Finally, she got the memo. The rooms, bathrooms and toilets and facilities are unsanitary (for example, there are biscuit crumbs all over the bed sheets. I didn't know until I got out of bed), the entire hotel itself is not accessibility-friendly as if the lack of a lift and the staff not being accommodating towards disabled people such as myself isn’t of any indication, the kitchen and the kitchen equipment on the third floor are dirty, there is no hot water in some of the bathrooms within the dorm rooms, the bathrooms and the dorm rooms are shared (therefore, there is no privacy), the lights keep turning themselves off if you’re idle (I’m more used to turning on and off the lights on my own accord), you need to pay £10 for a padlock which is complicated for disabled people and the list goes on. The toilets, bathrooms, kitchen etc are just as dirty as Badea Faulkner and Olive Allison Brown from the Avanzar House in Middleton, Manchester not cleaning up after themselves. And don’t get me started on the staff being problematic. They aren’t very useful to the point where I had to shout at them due to their language barriers and them not listening to me, let alone understanding me. This is troubling for autistic people like me. Never in all my years have I encountered such frustrating hotel staff members. Compared to the other hotels I've stayed at in the past, the hotel staff in these hotels were never infuriating. If a lack of staff doesn’t tell you the appalling

1st room is front of lift So I asked to change to QUIET room She gave me new room at 426 Looks quiet since at the end of the hall But after I finished put out my things and enter toilet I can smell cigarette smell Too lazy to ask to move room again so I just close the toilet door Suddenly wake up around 4 am since there’s a truck voices moving things outside my window 😭😭 Very noisy And I left the hotel at 6am Can’t sleep again When check out, the lady not bother to ask how’s my stay?? Since I stayed so many Holiday inn these week They always asked when I did my check out So I don’t bother to tell her about the cigarette smell or the loud noise from the truck early morning

easyHotel was in a nice location and less than 5-minute walk from the train station if you exit Birmingham New Street.We was welcomed by Eliza at reception, and she was lovely and polite. Made us feel very welcome and really helped us with other things. Our room was clean, and the layout was quite nice compared to other holiday inns.

Fabulous hotel in the heart of Birmingham. Walk is not too far to Broad street which is where we were headed. The decor is tastefully done and the pool table on the 1st floor was greatly enjoyed for a little bit of relaxation and competitiveness. Stayed in a Penter plus room on the 7rh floor and despite the lack of bath robe and slippers which it stated on trip, the room was modern, fresh, clean and comfortable.

I cant thank the staff enough from check in to check out the service was excellent. The ladies on check in were very efficient and helped with car park charges. The staff were accommodating to provide extra toilet roll finished in room and nothing was an inconvenience for the staff. I will most likely visit again.

I stopped here one night with friends for my birthday. The hotel is easy to get to, and the location is excellent as it’s located on Broad Street, near Brindley Place which hosts a wide range of bars and pubs. So if you’re visiting Birmingham to have a drunken, night out or a special occasion then this hotel is perfect. There’s also parking on site behind the hotel which is very handy, unfortunately the car park isn’t discounted for guests stopping in the hotel. After waiting in a small queue, we attempted to check in at 14:30 (half hour earlier than check in ‘opens’) we were told the room wasn’t ready. Which wasn’t an issue as they had luggage storage available. We can back to check in at 16:00 and the queue was horrendous. I’ve never seen a queue as big as this to check in for a hotel before. We waited for 20 minutes until we checked in. The room was spacious, clean and well equipped. Although there were coffee cups left behind the curtains upon entry. The bathroom was very modern and had a walk in shower. The beds were unbelievably comfy and had plug sockets by the side of the bed which is a massive plus as not every hotel has this. Luckily, it was a quicker process checking out as you can just pop your keys in the ‘express checkout box’. Overall, a comfortable night stay in the heart of Birmingham, unfortunately the check in was horrific.

Secure Parking underneath complex, £12 for 24 hours. Staff on check in were very friendly and accommodating . Stayed in room 172 which was quiet and very big. Only small ****** was no plug sockets by the bed. Breakfast was good and the managers were very friendly and stopped at our table to ask how our stay was. We visited sealife and Lego discovery which were no more than a 15 minute walk away. The hotel is next to a cinema , bowling , climbing centre. Bar with crazy golf. We stayed on a Thursday and it was quite probably busier at weekend. Would definitely stay again.

Really comfortable, staff very friendly. Spa and gym facilities. Breakfast was nice, but had to keep asking to get things topped up. I would definitely stay again

Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Hotel and facilities were very clean and mostly well kept. The bed was really noisy and creaky but not a major issue. Was slightly annoying to find you had to pay for parking as I didn't see this when booking the hotel but was fairly priced. Would stop again in the future.

Great value with friendly service Shame Wi-Fi was not working
