The Saltley Inn

Shocking The room wasn’t cleaned from previous people that stayed. Bag of rubbish left in the room, dirty towels left in the bathroom and bed was messy

Don’t recommend. Photo ID required on check-in. Room 23 was clean. The bath towels were fluffy. The water pressure in the bathroom was good. The pillows were about 1” thick. Bed jammed in against window. No kettle/tea/coffee in room. No iron or ironing board in room, although these are advertised. There was no remote for the TV nor was there a spindle on the toilet roll holder (manager said these are regularly stolen by visitors). Wallpaper was hanging off the wall. When this was reported, manager said “oh, has it come off again?”Radiator was not secured on the wall. The roller blind was damaged. Only one coat hanger. Bathroom bin hadn’t been emptied after last occupant. No other room offered when requested, as the manager said they were full. Rooms are not soundproof. There is no lift. Had to park some distance away on the street as secure on site parking is very limited.

As good as it gets Planned this trip very early and didn't realise it was a big national weekend, so everywhere else is expensive and decided to go for this inn due to my budget. This is my first time staying in an inn, so it's worth noting that maybe my expectations aren't on the same level. The building itself seems old, it was a really long walk from checking in to the room. The room itself wasn't bad though, decent space and facilities. Personally I prefer to boil some water to drink but they didn't have a kettle in the room, which is fine and possibly normal for an inn. The sound proof is also not the best as the building is quite old itself. You can easily hear people bumping to the wall next door or other guests opening and closing their doors. This was quite distracting as it happens late at night. The window opens outward, so when it rains you get loads of raindrop noise on the window and it affected my sleep a lot, but closing the window would just be worse as there won't be any airflow. During check in, the lady was busy chatting to a customer in the pub so she only gave me a form to sign and room key and told me where to go. I didn't realise there was another exit we have to take when the bar is close in the morning, eventually I found my way. Probably a common practice for inns, to check out, you just leave your room key in your room and leave. I thought that was a bit odd for an inn with about 30 rooms and not 10 rooms.

Very bad stay When we got there it looked ok we then looked under the bed and it was full of mess half eaten burgers and straws crisp packets and lots more rubbage put us off our stay completely and also breakfast was supposed to be till 11 every day I went down at half 9 one of the days and said can I have a breakfast please and she answered no I'm working on my own so not doing breakfast

Lovely little place Friendly staff, room clean and comfortable

Poor quality Quality of room and bathroom poor. One bin in the bathroom only. No towel rack, no hooks to hang up clothes. Kettle in the room without cups or glasses. Window was broken and didn’t close. Saturday night had a karaoke/live music at the pub which didn’t end until around 2am so it was impossible to sleep. Shelves were falling apart with screws lying around on them. Insufficient pillows on all beds and they were incredibly thin. Ordered breakfast on Saturday morning which wasn’t delivered until 90 minutes later. Definitely wouldn’t stay there again.
