Birmingham Central Backpackers

The lady Indian receptionist was the nicest I have ever met. The breakfast is generous. Everything is super clean. The location is great. The owner is efficient and friendly.

I stayed at a property with the same name, in the same location and had been avoiding this place since that bad experience but after seeing pics online figured I'd try it. And I couldn't have been more surprised! The place I stayed at before was nasty dingey twisting little place with rude staff that felt like sleeping in someone's druggy cousins spare room. This was a very professional and modern hostel with all the convenient amenities you could need and well designed and implemented rooms. The bunks are comfortable and provide great privacy with their curtains. There are lockers for each bed, both the beds and lockers are labelled. The kitchen and lounge were both fine. There are big communal bathrooms, toilets and showers on each level. My only con was that the hot water went out in the middle of my shower and I had to run downstairs to the main bathrooms to finish my shower. But other than that I had a great experience here and would definitely stay again.

Staff and the premises very good but other tenants snoring at night made it bit difficult to sleep or else ambience is very good.

Private room for 2 in good condition. Shared bathroom not always ideal but it was okay. We spent one night and it was fine. The street where it is can be a bit creepy at night but we had no issues at all. Breakfast is very simple but free.
