Worse hotel ever!!! It's nasty and disgusting. The staff is unfriendly. The hotel is like old run downed apartments. I had to get moved to 3 different rooms until I found a room that I could actually tolerate for the time being. A waste of money & I couldnt not get it back because I had booked it online. More

What a dump. I did not believe the reviews and as I paid for it thru Hotwire.com I went ahead and stayed here. I would recommend you call Hotwire and complain if you get this place. If they won't do anything for you I would recommend sleeping in your car or maybe find a homeless person and share his or... More

The only reason we picked Rime was because our daughter had a new puppy and no hotels will allow pets in Birmingham. This "hotel" is really a very old apartment complex that is renting out a few "condos" they have had empty for years. The heat would not go on and we could see our breath it was so cold... More

Expedia referred it so booked into the Rime Garden on the evening of Thursday, October 20th and should have ran when I drove up that dark hill.
