Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The customer service was ATROCIOUS. To say the staff is incompetent is mild and doesn't fully grasp how inept they are. However, one would only need to meet the "General Manager" to understand how all of this is possible. At one point I honestly scanned the lobby because I thought there must be a camera filming for a television show. At 10:32 am my sister and I went to the property after landing at the airport. We thought we'd leave our luggage rather than driving around Birmingham with it. The front desk clerk greeted us. I explained we'd just landed and wanted to store our bags. I asked if their was a room ready by chance and she explained there was not, but we could return at 12 and she could accomodate an early check- in. I thanked her, and asked if she would confirm the reservation is reflecting paid as my credit card had been charged in full 48 hours prior. She asked for my driver's license again and said yes your reservation is fully paid and upon return I would only need to secure the $25 deposit.

The beds were very uncomfortable as well as the pillows. The indoor pool was freezing cold and did not circulate well which caused the water to be a bit murky. The area around the pool was dirty as well towels left everywhere dirt and outlet covers missing from plugs. The first room we were given the floors were so sticky we had to be moved to another room.

The front desk clerk was rude at check in. There was no coffee made at check in. When I came back down an hour later coffee was still not ready. The coffee creamer was empty in the lobby. There were flies everywhere at the coffee station. The room was clean enough. I would pick a different hotel if I were to go back to this area.

Really loved the comfortable bed and great tv. Room was spacious and chairs comfortable too. The carpet could have used some spot cleaning. We had some trouble figuring out the ac which was actually controlled by a thermostat and a lovely, pleasant young woman came and demonstrated how easy it actually was. Plan to stay at this Hilton again.
