Guest reviews
What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“Very solid. Great location, close and walkable to a Kroger, Sweetgreen and Starbucks and all the businesses downtown Birmingham. We were in town for a Lions games and it was about $30-40 to Uber downtown, depending on time of day. We stayed in top floor king room. Very clean and comfortable. Traffic noise is noticeable but not a dealbreaker. Staff very friendly, would stay again.”
