Excellent stay, however our key cards kept getting deactivated by NEC metal detectors, and we had to keep going down to reception to reactivate them. It would be useful for the entrances to have signs notifying guests that if they have visited the NEC they should get their cards reset at reception before trekking to their rooms.

Average rooms, great location for the NEC
Entrance to the hotel looked really clean and 5*. Room was a little dated, the bed was too hard (personal preference) and the walls thin. The staff were very friendly on check in and out.

Awful
The room I was given was very tired and shabby. Shower curtain ripped, settee greasy, stained, just awful. No fridge, furniture chipped, cushions on bed stained. This was honesty to worst room I’ve had in over 30 years! Breakfast was good but one coffee machine for 100s of people?
