Canalside

Check in was simple. A deposit of £1.01 was taken from my card presumably in case I nick a loo roll. The room looked clean and tidy with a king sized bed and flat screen TV. The kettle was hidden in the wardrobe and there was a fridge, iron and ironing board. Elemis full sized toiletries in the bathroom with a little note that says basically if you take these we'll charge you £20 a bottle for the pleasure. No such note on the bathrobes and slippers, standing lamp, designer cushions and flat screen TV. 😊 The bed was very bouncy and uncomfortable. Sharing it means feeling every movement from your partner and being catapulted across the room if they have an exuberant sneeze. The air con blows hot air so that a night in Birmingham feels like 24 hours in the tropics with a view of Moor Street station. Breakfast. Empty MPW restaurant with his gorming mush on every flat surface. (Almost) panoramic views of Birmingham to accompany rubbery toast, frozen butter, fatty streaky bacon, solid sausage, cold beans and volcanic mushrooms. My dogs enjoyed the full English later that day. Would I stay here again? In an apocalyptic event.
