I am hugely biased towards Aston, having been an undergrad there as well as doing a postgrad course, so ignore what I say but anyway. The towes are character building, but Lakeside is far nicer. From what I hear the towers are going to be demolished soon and new Lakesidey accomodation put in. Campus security is being beefed up due to teething problems with matthew bolton college. Most of the teaching staff there are excellent as well.
One final point: Birmingham is in the middle of the country so you can get where ever you want to, by train, car or plane at reasonable cost.
