Everyone was very nice and helpful. The room was clean and okay. I'm giving it a poor rating because their air freshener/cleaning product in the lobby was so strong I couldn't breathe. My room ended up above the lobby and the smell was in my room and burned my throat. I asked them to turn it off and they said they would. Maybe they did. When I got to my next destination by bed clothes still smelled so strong I couldn't wear them.

Property is dated and in need of repairs but very noisy, something that’s not their fault however a broom and a mop would prevent your feet from turning black. No excuses for cleanliness sorry.

I liked the convenience of the area location and that I felt safe. But it was very difficult getting in and out of the parking lot. It wasn’t run down or up to do. It wasn’t dirty but not really clean looking. The price was a good deal and would stay there again if in that area.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property does not look as nice as the pictures. As a single female, I did not feel safe initially driving up a big hill with blasting loud music from the bar/tavern adjacent to the property. It is a motel style not a hotel, which is not safe. The door did not close all the way with a gap. I was so tired from my flight arriving in at 1am, that I was too tired to leave and find a new place. I wouldn't recommend unless you like to drink and party.

The neighbourhood was safe, albeit not pedestrian-friendly (thank City of Hoover for that), hotel was not in the greatest of conditions, but I did feel safe & secure there. Housekeeping definitely needs to step up, as I found a few small things from previous visits, as well as a cockroach as I was packing up to check-out. Showerhead and faucet in the bathroom were very, very loose to the point where I was afraid to give any more than a light touch out of fear they would fall out of the wall. But on the positive side, they did not process a deposit for incidentals, etc. Staff were great, and even stopped by my hotel room to bring me my ID Card, which I failed to retrieve during check-in. There are restaurants and a Publix supermarket nearby, but would be best if you are able to drive, since the City of Hoover apparently doesn't believe in sidewalks or pedestrian crossings.

Filth for sale.

This place is an abject dump. It’s filthy and it’s falling apart. There was someone else’s butt dust on the toilet rim when we got there. It’s grim and should probably be shut down. At $75/night it is probably overpriced by about $70, although the bed was surprisingly comfortable. Stay away.

Difficult to get into parking lot. The room was dark. Floors were dirty. No towels. Hair dryer was broken. Noisy area. Slept with TV on low and it was fine. Bed was very comfortable. Refrigerator and microwave in room.
