This is the perfect place to stay if you or anyone in your family is having surgery or any kind of stay in the UAB Hospital. It’s joined to the hospital and uses the hospital parking deck for your overnight stay. We didn’t eat at the Bistro located inside the hotel but is a convenient place for a quick bite. There’s plenty of places to eat after you go up to the 2nd flour and walk over the skywalk to the inside of the hospital . Beds were good and it’s a very clean hotel. Enjoyed our stay.

Dianne

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Staff were friendly. The hotel boasts they are connected to the UAB Hospital but it is connected to the parking garage accessible from outside. The parking garage takes you to the hospital. The room we stayed in was in need of repair and maintenance came the evening before we checked out. There is no microwave in the room but there is a dinky one in the ice machine area sitting on a shelf that looks like may slide off, no table to sit your food on and wonder if it is clean. We went through a third party to book our room. Our family had to have surgery. If you call the hotel directly as they recommend to get a room rate, you may be put on hold, as I was, and sent to the online reservation..which was of no help so we went third party, then had to cancel because family surgery was cancelled but the hotel said to call booking and we didn’t get a refund. You don’t need to go through all that when you have family in the hospital and they boast they are the hospital hotel, connected to the hospital…Sorry, but we’ve been through the ringer with hospital and hotel.
