Garbage
This hotel is garbage! The toilet was leaking. There were no sheets on the bed. There were people hanging out in the parking lot. I don’t recommend it to anyone who values quality.

This place was so run down and unsafe. I left before unpacking. If I could leave photos you’d see a pool filled with black water filthy and rusty exterior, a broken sharp soap holder in the bathroom, stains on the chair and mattress that were disgusting. I wouldn’t leave a dog there.

Smelled marijuana in several areas walking to our room. Our room was 1/2 block from our car. Heard a conversation from another tenant whose appearance was questionable (looked like a prostitute). Paid for 2 nights, stayed one and will not go back.

Place looked ran down when I pulled up. It was just me and about 3-4 cars in the parking lot. Lady in the front was cool. Whenever I got into the room it literally smelled like mildew. I was in there for 3-5mins before having to turn in my keys. You’ve been warned.

Did not stay there after all. Once I arrived at the Econo Lodge, I realized it did not have the amenities I was looking for- no restaurant present and no shuttle service to the Birmingham Airport, both of which I required. There was a restauraant across a busy highway, which did not meet my needs.

ROACH INFESTED DUMP!
Roaches!!! ROACHES!!! R O A C H E S!!!! Nasty place with roaches and bedbugs. Nasty bathroom, linen, and seemed like a motel where people struggling with addiction or something else would visit. I checked in and checked right out after seeing the bugs in the room.

I've stayed here before, but they have no cont breakfast now, no coffee in lobby. No coffee maker in rooms. Floor stayed wet the entire time we have been here. And now the heat/air unit quit working. It's cold. This is expensive for these rooms and no coffee makers. Not even ice machine or vending machine.

Run down and dirty
This hotel is run down and nasty. My daughter plays travel ball and it’s right across the street from the fields. I will never stay here again, I’d rather drive farther to get a decent hotel. The beds were AWFUL! Very hard. The comforters have cigarette burns all over. The toilet leaked into the floor. Holes in the wall and just dirty.

Room was disgusting. Stains on bed and chair. Door lock was broken and a fire hazard I couldn’t get out of room. Then the smoke detector was chirping. The front desk wouldn’t give me a new room. Kept me up fixing door and lock and smoke detector. Was so dirty but I was tired and just needed sleep. Grossest room ever
