I did an international course and for three years I spend half of the academic year at the University of Wolverhampton (twice I stayed on the Walsall campus and the last year I lived on the Wolverhampton campus), at least once a week we went to Birmingham.
I've visited twice before, last time about a year ago, and stayed in a hotel in Wolverhampton but I wanted more luxury this time and Birmingham has more hotels to choose from.
The reason why I wanted to go back to see more of Coventry, I visited the city last year and I really liked it but I didn't have enough time to see much. But I like to stay somewhere I know the area and Coventry is only a short train ride away so I'm staying in Birmingham.
I'm thinking of also visiting Derby this time or another city in the area.
