The pool table was a big hit for us. We had a lot of fun with it. Lovely and easily accessible location. Felt very homely. Was clean and had very good facilities.
Host was very helpful when I spoke to him and was friendly too
Two mattresses were too soft and not very comfy.Sofa settee was dirty and stained. Could fo with fixing some chair covers. Overgrown garden, saw a big fox

Good sized bedrooms with everything we needed for our stay.
Modern looking interior and very clean
Some tiling was away from the wall in the kitchen, and the boiler wasn’t working as it needed topping up with water on our first day. Luckily, one of our group knew how to resolve this.

1.0 / 10.0
Property misadvertised as 3 bathrooms but was actually - 1 bathroom, 1 shower room. And 1 separate toilet.
The property was in an appalling state, far below acceptable standards. Issues included:
Dirty sofa
Broken chair footrest
Garden not fit for use
Boiler not working – house cold for 2 nights
Shower in bathroom slow to heat
No working locks on separate toilet or shower room
Radiator valves broken in some rooms, no heating control
Hole in a drawer
Missing blind slats – no privacy at night with lights on
Burnt light fitting – safety concern
Mouldy grout in the shower
Water not draining from the sink in the toilet room
Dirt around the plugs in sink

Nothing. Dirty, smelled of damp. Not clean.
We booked for two nights but left after the first because the property was in such poor condition. The downstairs bedroom smelled strongly of damp, the bathroom had mould, the kitchen was dirty (including a filthy hob and washing-up bowl), and there were marks, dust, and even chewing gum stuck to furniture.
We reported everything through Booking.com with photos. The host may say we didn’t contact them directly, but the property should never have been handed over in this state in the first place. Not fit for a comfortable stay.

The house was very well located and good.
Just the fact that the doors weren't locking properly.

After an original booking being cancelled, we were able to book this property at last minute and the host accommodated us with ease.

Convenient location - 10mins to anywhere you want to get to, we were there for family attractions.
It was clean enough but requires some tlc like a student house so makes it feel grubbier than it probably was. Quite liked feeling like a student again!
Kids loved the air hockey table.
Only four of us so not an issue for us, but there’s no table to eat at and only 4 bar stools so this should be a consideration if sleeping 8.
The showers are terrible! Either no pressure or amazing pressure but it only had two temperatures - freezing or scolding!
Also, very hot house, bathroom rads on all the time on a hot day so had to have all the windows open which was a bit noisy at night, luckily the kids slept through it though.

Everything is perfect in my eyes. Very big house. pool table. parking is spot on can fit easy 4+ cars on.
its around £150 a night and that is very cheap for what you are getting if you and your friends went with 8 of you paying this is £18.75 a night! and no hotel can beat that price! its a really really good price! Also i seen in other reviews saying the area is not great. Area is not a problem at all. and so close to centre of Birmingham £12 for a Uber! Thank you.
Nothing at all.

Pros: very quiet location and no noise on an evening. Nice sofa with reclining seats and decent TV with Netflix. Cooking facilities were good and clean and bonus of washing machine. Beds were comfy. Place was spacious with cupboards for food in the kitchen and space in bedrooms for clothes. Billiards table was a big hit!
Cons: upstairs bedroom opposite bathroom didn’t seem to have a working radiator and was too cold to sleep in. Upstairs shower would only run cold. Broken tiles in kitchen were hazardous. Outdoor drain seemed blocked. Garden wasn’t safe for kids to play in (fence blown down and uneven flagging without an edge on one side). Messaged about these issues and only received a reply about thermostat, other issues were not addressed sadly.

Excellent and responsive in resolving issues

Loved everything about the property I’m disabled so I had a bedroom downstairs and a bathroom that was a win-win for me
Only problem is the showers they either come out scorching hot or freezing cold that needs to be sorted out before I come back again
