Great Stay! Great Room! Can’t Complain!

I read reviews about this hotel and twice tried to find something else but came back to this one because of location near my appointments. I am glad I did. I cannot complain about anything. The room was clean, neat, and very comfortable. The mini-suite setup is the best. What a wonderful way to redo a hotel room. It was nice to come back to the room and have a separate sitting area and sleeping area with desk space and kitchen counter with refrig. Yes, the bathroom is small but it just has toilet and tub. Sink is in open area with plenty of room. Hairdryer is in drawer almost missed that one. Flat screen tv on wall between bed and sofa area. Rotates either way quite easily. Very pleasantly surprised with this hotel that I was determined I was not going to stay in.

Traveler's tip for business travelers

I always travel with a noise maker ($40 from JCPenny) and small. It eliminates alot of noise problems and makes for a guaranteed good night’s sleep.

comfortable

We really like this hotel and had stayed here last year also. The elevators are very slow. My friends said the ac in their room did not work.

Very nice

Very nice hotel. Nice plasma TV in room, plenty of room for our needs. Only complaint was that the cut fruit in the breakfast buffet tasted funny/bad.

Traveler's tip on recreational activities

Birmingham golf courses (Oxmoor Valley) is an easy drive. We also drove to Prattville (Capitol Hill) one day...easy drive 1 1/4 hours

Football Weekend

Even though this is a fairly new property you’ll discovery some wear and tear. The staff is very young and not all that excited about service but generally they were friendly and responsive.

Sparse amenities in room

I was in the hotel for five nights. Usually decent hotels provide at least shampoo, cream rinse, and hand cream. This hotel provided only shampoo and cream rinse--and not regularly. After three days, I received another shampoo and no cream rinse. Never any cream. When I arrived, the kleenex box was nearly empty. By the third night, the box was empty and was never replaced. Coffee/tea/mini-refrigerator were handy, as was the wireless computer set up. Downstairs, the office for guests was adequate. However, the printer didn’t work very well. Apparently those who worked the desk knew that guests would need to play with a lever to get it to work. There was no sign though. I helped another guest, and I overheard two other guests asking for help at the desk. The person at the front desk (more a bar and deli area) was sometimes overwhelmed--especially in the morning rush.

Very Unhappy

I was not happy with our stay. I had requested a King & were given a double. I was able to have it changed. One elevator does not operate properly. We were stuck at times as the door would not close all the way. Very scary. There was a foul odor in the room & hallways. We went for breakfast in the lobby & ordered. After paying, our ordered was not available. When served our substitute meal, we were disgusted to find a long dark hair scrambled in with the eggs. The room was not cleaned properly when we arrived, there was a crusty substance on the pillows on the sofa, mildew in the toilet, dirty glasses & the shower was dirty. The housekeeper department did not vacuum, wipe the counters or sink. I had to ask them to return twice. I could certainly list other problems that we had as well, for there were several more. I will just say that I feel that the quality of this particular hotel is very poor. It does not live up to the expectations of a hotel chain of the standing of this organization.

Traveler's tip on local attractions

The Civil Rights Institute was very impressive, as was The Alabama Theater.

Convenient to the Galleria and south Birmingham metro area

Wonderful place to stop off if you’re looking for a convenient place in the southern Birmingham area. down the street from the Galleria mall, and many restaurants. Friendly staff helped make a pleasant stay.

Not impressed

The room was nice but not very clean - had to wash out tub before use - our room was never cleaned while we were there and if I had wanted to wash tubs - dishes and get my own towels I could have stayed home - no one could provide a key for the room safe - because the room was booked thru expedia and paid in advance they said they could not make adjustments on the bill and the manager was suppose to call on Monday and we have never heard from them! Not impressed at all

Not Impressed

Rooms were fine - bathroom not real clean and they never cleaned our room - never had clean cups - never had the beds made - couldn’t provide me a key for the room safe - never provided clean towels had to request them. Out of coffee for continental breakfest - because everything was booked in advance thur expedia was told no changes could be made in charges - if I had wanted to clean up and wash dishes I would have stayed home!

Traveler's tip

Bone Fish Rest. was very good and the Robert Trent Jones Golf Coursea are beautiful and very very hard!
