This was sort of a quirky little hotel, but I’m so glad I found it. The room I stayed in was so beautiful and pink Ann and the welcoming staff was wonderful. It was about three blocks from some amazing restaurants and bars and I would go back and next time stay in the green room! Thanks to the wonderful front desk staff.

The property and room were immaculate. It is not for people with mobility issues, like most historic hotels. The Keurig and the shared hallway fridge were tasteful and useful, but those are not in your room. Perfect for a walking exploration of Birmingham!

Super cool hotel right in the heart of Birmingham. If you’re tired of the same crowded “standard” hotel experience, this place is a refreshing change. No packed lobby, long front desk lines, or chaos — just a smooth, modern virtual check-in experience from start to finish. The hotel itself felt brand new or newly remodeled, and everything was clean, stylish, and thoughtfully done. Great location, unique atmosphere, and overall just a really easy and enjoyable stay. Would definitely stay here again!

Liked: Cleanliness

The room was clean and cleaning service was great. There was nobody there at 6:15 pm when I got in after delays with flights and a long day. I checked out and wanted a place to store my bag while I ate and waited to go to the airport but the lady in a closet, not at the desk but hiding in a closet said they could not do that. It was an odd way to leave and left a bad taste. I will not be staying at the painted lady again. Also there was no way to get H2O so ya…
