Do not for any reason stay here. Smelly, disgusting, and old. This is the kind of place where drug addicts stay. I stayed one night and couldn't sleep because of the smell and noise. I left a day early without a refund because it was so bad. More

I have never written a review bur I couldn't resist attempting to save others from making the mistake I am right now. We stopped here on our way down to Florida. I told the clerk we had three sleepy boys (ages 11,6 & 1) and needed a place just to sleep. Though she was very curteous, she failed to inform... More

First of all mistake number one was even CONSIDERING this hotel. I usually never write reviews but I just had to write one for this poor excuse of a hotel. So I booked this hotel because my brother was graduating from UAB. FIRST of all the hotel is built on a huge hill, and so it is immediately inconvenient from... More

My boyfriend and I planned to stay here a couple of years back (summer of 2009) for a motorcycle ride we were doing. We were using a free night based on some reward points he had. We got here, and went to our room which was wayyy up the hill, and we were completely horrified. Toe nail clippings, ants in... More

I've stayed at several locations during my travels and this one tops them all. The room is well furnished, to include a mini fridge and microwave, as well as the expected TV and table with chairs. The shower is awesome--plenty of water pressure. Bathroom is a little oddly arranged, with the sink in the same room as the toilet and... More

I understand that this is an older hotel and has a few small issues. I do not know what these people in the bad reviews are talking about. We had a really bad experience at another days inn and ended up staying at this one. The staff was extremely friendly and the room was clean. smelled a little old but... More

We were travelling home from Fl and stopped here to stay overnight. From the outside, it looks nice. The price was cheap--should have been a clue. We drove way up a steep steep hill to a larger portion of the hotel. It is way out of the way and yet the local police were cruising through--should have been another clue.... More

We have stayed in 3 hotels in Vestavia Hills and this is by far the worst one yet. The other reviews are right on target except no one has mentioned bed bugs or stained sheets yet. Yes we found bed bugs in the bed along with stained sheets. It was disgusting. We packed our stuff up and left immediately. We... More

My family and I recently stayed at this "dump" for 1 night and it was the worst stay I've ever experienced. First off, putting the incompetent desk clerk aside I assumed this to be a decent hotel...I was WRONG. Despite making reservations WEEKS in advance, when we arrived @ 3pm-1 hour past check in time-we were given a room key....only... More
