• Beds were ok.
• Was a lot of waiting and was not prepared for all the hairdressers. Kept running out of breakfast items.

“Very bad. Went for a hair show booked with them because I was assured of shuttle to and from the hair show. When we got there we had to wait over an hour for our room. Then we were told we could not do the shuttle because of the hair show. I told them that is why I booked with them, for the shuttle. I did not know where a lot of things were in the area and how to get back and forth. I was told it was only a half a mile we could walk. I was not walking at night! The valet was a long wait and they could not find a car which pushed us behind. I think they should give us a discount for all the trouble. Never again will I stay there.”

• I love the historic significance and decor of the hotel.
• My room was far less exciting than the last time I stayed there; they let the place kind of go.

“They should have their room quality level more consistent than what I have experienced the two times I have stayed there in the last 4 months.”

• Historic factor.
• The hotel was in transition. Terrible restaurant/room service.

“During the remainder of 2006, the hotel is undergoing renovations. The onsite dining/room service are very sub par at this time.”

• The room that we stayed in was so spacious and big.
• No microwave or refrigerator.

“It was a very pleasant experience for my husband, children and me. We did not expect to have our children with us, but due to unforeseen events we did. The hotel accommodated our needs to double beds and the room was the largest we have ever been in. It was perfect for all 6 of us (children ages 5mo.-10). Free parking on curb was a bonus, too. Only 3 blocks from civic center.”

• Ummm. I could watch GAC on cable.
• The carpet needed cleaning, there was no ice machine, 16.00 per day for valet parking and no other choice! This made me a bit angry.

“Smelled musty, no ice machine, very few conveniences. glasses in room not replaced after we used them. I would not stay there again under any circumstance. Valet parking was outrageous at 16.00 per day with no other choice. Not what I had hoped for. Very disappointed.”

• Staff was nice.
• Small rooms and bad smell.

“"wow this hotel ........!" that is a quote from my oldest son (8) and also my wife. We check in, did not go to our room, went and got something to eat and shop. Then we went to our room. We were in our room for may be 15 minutes while I got hotel reservations on my cell phone. We left and went to a nicer, better hotel.”

• Nice Ol' Southern Hotel.
• I got dinged for $17 parking charge.

“Cool ol' Southern Hotel in downtown Birmingham. Only complaint is that they dinged me for $17 in parking.”

• Very quiet! Nice staff, very helpful. Some of the best staff I have ever experienced anywhere in the country.
• Accidentally left my cell phone charger in the room when we left. They have made no effort to get it to me.

“Very nice hotel with a very nice staff. Looks like they could ship me my cell phone charger I left behind, however.”

• Large room, friendly staff, good location for business, but not leisure.
• Parking was an additional amount.

“The hotel was very charming with large rooms and an ideal location for business, however, at night, downtown shuts down, and when we ventured out to find dining locations, the exits we took were not in a good part of town and dining was non-existent. The staff had directed us to a restaurant down the street from the hotel, but when we got there, they were closing their doors at 9 pm. There was no close by shopping, eating or entertainment, just simply a good place to sleep and leave, and the reader needs to be informed there is a heavy parking charge, so when you factor in parking, this was not a good money deal.”

• Quality bed linens.
• No Parking.

“Absolutely Horrid. Billed as a "historic" hotel, in actuality it is just old and decrepit The common areas are nice; but the rooms are barely adequate: windows painted closed, "marble" bathrooms are Home Depot tile (poorly installed at that!), there is a surcharge for Internet access, $20 valet parking with NO OPTIONS, basic cont. breakfast, very small rooms unless you opt for an executive suite at three times the cost.”

• Nice lounge and lobby.
• No nearby restaurants or other facilities on weekends.

“This is an excellent value for a business traveler in downtown Birmingham. However, Birmingham is not yet revitalized and pretty much shuts down on the weekends. If you are traveling on the weekend to attend an event it is fine, otherwise I would choose a different location. The lounge is open until 12:00, but shuts down by 10:00 on weekends because it is so slow. The rooms are small - typical city rooms. The linens need to be upgraded - they are more in line with a Holiday Inn. The access to the Y is greater - except their hours are very limited on weekends.”

• Not in the best part of town but we felt safe there.

“The hotel was very nice they have restored it to its former glory. It was like steeping back in time . The staff was very nice and made our stay there very good. We would stay there again if the need arose.”
