Out of the way stay in Birmingham
They put us in the incorrect room, king room instead of two queen bed rooms, didn’t know until I went into the room. Didn’t try to change the room because it was late and we fit.
There was no TV remote or coffee maker in the room.
In the bathroom only one mirror light worked.
The floor/carpet felt damp.
It was in a nice off path type of place, the people were nice but busy.

Great staff, poor accommodations.
The hotel is Almost nice. The following is my concerns.
1) Shower drain clogged
2) Refrigerator hummed and had a headache the 1st night
3) 3rd floor hallway had food on it my entire stay
4) Mold on muffin from dining room
5) Pork sausage over cooked
6) Entrance area trashy
7) Only 1 luggage cart for 4 floors
Management needs to have a more active roll at property.

Please Don’t
Though the customer service was nice, the condition of the rooms were terrible. The carpet was dirty, the A/C made a whistling noise, and dirty water back up into the tub after taking a shower (see pic). When we inquired about vacuuming, one of the housekeeper stated they didn’t have a working vacuum and complained she had requested one several times without a response. Disappointed and won’t be staying here again. The halls had a weird, wet, musky smell.
