"I stayed here for two days while in the Birmingham area for business. POSITIVES- Very fast/dependable wifi, rooms are quiet & comfortable, easy access from I-65 & Lakeshore Dr., friendly & helpful staff, clean & maintained fitness center. NEGATIVES- hallway & room carpet need deep cleaning, while the dining was nice, the prices for food & drinks are definitely on the high side."

"I loved this hotel! Fresh Fields right across the road within walking distance so I could stock the fridge with healthy snacks and meals while I'm working - clean quiet pool just outside my ground floor room with sliding glass doors to my own little patio - very spacious and clean room too! Had a little hiccup connecting my phone to the Internet but the receptionist was very helpful and connected me with tech support who manually added my device...."

"So me and my mom are from Florida and I take her to Birmingham once every month or few months for her dr appointments and we always stay here. What really makes our stay different is the front desk agent named Whitney. She is always welcoming, professional and friendly. She accommodates our needs and is a hardworker. Whitney truly makes a difference and will be returning soon."
