The Hotel oversold parking, leaving us to park in the paid parking garage across the street, where homeless people lived, and followed asking for money. Then you had to walk through an alley, also where homeless beggers were, to get to the hotel! The hotel itself was extremely nice, but parking is essential! No one tells you that you need to prepay for the hotel parking, which ar max would only allow for roughly 50 cars!

The parking situation is a disaster. That's where my criticism lies.

First off, I didn't know at first I'd have to pay for parking or I never would have elected to stay there.

Then, they told me that their parking lot was full. (So...I have a room reservation but you don't have a parking space for me?) Then I was told, \"You need to reserve a parking space in advance.\" WHAT??? I had never been told this before.

Then, I was told that I could park at a lot across the street from the hotel that cost even more than would parking in the hotel's lot ($5 more) Further, this lot was a public lot with no security. I grabbed my luggage and headed downstairs where I was greeted with a stench of urine in the dark with homeless people around. It was disgusting. I would like to have canceled my stay there but the time to cancel had elapsed and I would have had to pay anyway.

I'm very disgusted by the whole experience.

The hotel’s garage parking was full when we arrived. We were given a map with directions to another parking garage which is not managed by the hotel. It was after dark, confusing to find, dirty, and most concerning, was the number of people loitering in and around the parking garage, and on the walk back to a hotel. We were approached by some and it felt very unsafe. I wouldn’t stay there again unless I knew there was hotel parking available upon arrival. The room was updated, spacious, and clean.

Room was amazing! Inside bar was amazing! Location was amazing and we walked to a lot of local shops and eateries. Parking had to be paid daily but was fenced in. You had to use your room key to make certain doors and elevators work, but that added to the safety for me. The parking is fenced in, but is in a back alleyway that you have to cross over to go in and out the building. If you park outside of the fenced in parking area, trying to avoid paying, be wary of that too, because I had to call the police after watching someone try to park, hit a car, then leave the scene to park in the paid parking area to not get caught. Lots to do within walking distance though and very helpful staff. Morning buffet was nice and we went back several times. Thoroughly enjoyed it for my birthday trip, as well as easy access to a venue we went to for a concert.

Our 6 yrs old loved the indoor pool and the exercise room , although we didn’t have to use the laundry room it was great to know they had one if needed! Definitely will go with this Hotel again if we are in the area and need to stay in a hotel , Will also recommend it to anyone looking for a great hotel at an affordable price that serves a hot breakfast also !

1. Terrible parking availability, and super expensive paid parking (the recommended parking garage was $26 for a single night). Sketchy and disruptive people hanging about, and no visible security presence.
2. Very small driveway for loading and unloading. No staff to assist. Very small luggage valet carts that only fit 1 large bag basically.
3. Our refrigerator in our room didn't work the first night until we notified staff.
4. TVs had very low connectivity, so live TV channels would cut out, and none of the available streaming platforms could be accessed.
5. Cleanliness was overall decent, besides cigarette butts in the lobby and stray hairs in the room and a bug on our pillow.

I want to give it a lower rating but there was a bed, a working shower and a decent breakfast. Sadly the place does seem to be falling apart, from cracks in the ceilings, slow elevators, smell of smoke everywhere (despite it saying they enforce the no smoking policy) and some broken locks on the inside. We required additional blankets and pillows, I called the front desk (guessed the number as it was not listed on the in room phone) and was told to come to the lobby to pick up the blankets but that the pillows will be delivered to me. Why I couldn’t just pick up both or have both delivered is a mystery to me. The biggest issue was the parking situation. I was expecting to pay for parking on the property but there was quite the limited parking and was told we had to go park in the overflow lot. That lot being a public parking facility which is dimly lit, and does not appear to be very secure (fortunately nothing happened). After parking you have to go through what looks like an alleyway basically and then cross the street to the hotel. Had I know the parking situation exactly I would not have booked here.

Enjoyed the large clean rooms as we were staying with other family members there also and it made it nice for visiting. Our shower floor was very squishy and I didn’t feel safe while using it as it moved and made some strange noises. The other family had a perfectly good solid shower floor. Our stay was for 5 nights and only once did we see housekeeping. I had to go down and request additional towels finally.
The hotels location was perfect for all the activities we had planned and were within short driving distance. Lots of little restaurants within walking distance.
Breakfast was good. You could tell who was in the kitchen when you came down to eat. Some had very haphazardly put things out while others actually made it look very inviting. Waffles were only available for one day and that was a disappointment.

My suite was nice and clean. Very spacious. The AC unit in the bedroom was very loud. You could feel the vibration of the unit. I was up and down all night turning off and on. I would get hot and have to turn it on. The noise/vibration would keep me awake so I had to get up and turn it back off. Middle of night so I did not call maintenance since most likely no one would be available. I did not want to pack my stuff up and move to another room. Had I been staying more than one night, I most definitely would have contacted front desk. So I cannot give a review on that. The only other issue was lighting. They are very dim. I had to stand under the overhead light in bathroom with my compact mirror to put on makeup. Flashlights would have been better than the dim lighting in the bathroom and the overhead light was in front of the commode. The sofa was not an option to move to instead of the bedroom as it was only comfortable enough for sitting short periods of time. Breakfast was typical hotel free breakfast. Tables were wobbly. Area was clean. Elevator not working so had to carry luggage up 4 flights to second floor. They could do a lot better for a Hilton.

We chose this property for the price and its proximity to the UAB Children's Hospital. The property itself was clean and the staff was friendly for the most part. It's a little tight getting into front of the hotel for check in and odd having to drive down an alley to get to the parking lot behind the building. Parking was quite tight especially for guests driving longer vehicles like trucks. I'm not sure if there were enough parking spaces if the hotel was at capacity. I found out upon check-in, after paying for the room in advance when I made the reservation, that I then had to pay $25 just to park at the hotel. Where else would I want to park except the hotel I was staying at. The room (suite) was quite large and had pretty much everything anyone would need during a stay. The sofa, I assume a pull-out bed, was not comfortable but the beds were adequate. I stepped out briefly to grab a bite to eat for the family when a staff member knocked on our door claiming there was too much noise coming from our room and according to my wife and granddaughter was not pleasant. My 2yr old great-granddaughter was asleep and the TV wasn't on. My wife and granddaughter were on their phones waiting on me to return. That interaction was a turn-off.

Our complaint here was actually with Hotels.com. When you advertise that your pricing is grand total, you need to include extra fee amounts such as the $25 parking fee!

Felt kind of dark except for front desk and breakfast area in the morning. Rooms and hallways need more light.

This is a very nice, well-equipped and conventionally located hotel. The rooms are full suites with a sitting area (with pull out couch), a full kitchen with everything you could need to make meals, ample desk space, and comfortable bed. We were just in town for a night, and we loved the location at 5 Points. It was just about 10 minutes from where we had gone to museums downtown, and there must have been a dozen restaurants, from fast food to elegant, within a couple blocks of the hotel. The 5 Points area is immediately adjacent to the UAB campus and seemed as safe as any city/college neighborhood. (For someone needing proximity to UAB campus or hospital, this would be an excellent choice.) On-site parking was a bit pricey at $25 a night, but it was a secure lot, and it was easier than trying to find a space in the busy neighborhood. The free buffet breakfast was delicious, and the breakfast staff was friendly.

The only negative (and it is minor) is that we asked the young woman working the desk after we checked in for an additional pillow and it was never delivered. When we came back after dinner, we had to go down to the desk to ask again. (And then got it right away.) Overall, we highly recommend and would stay again if we have reason to visit Birmingham again.

The hotel is in a downtown location and you have to pay nightly for parking in their gated
lot. There are bars and some restaurants within walking distance, but I would not consider them family friendly. The room was clean, but there were things that I personally missed, like a magnifying mirror, a removable shower head and a safe to secure some items. The staff was very friendly and the hotel was secure in that you had to have your key card to get in the building and up the elevators.

I was surprised to discover that I had to pay an additional $25 for parking in the gated lot. The attendant who checked me in smiled and said “It was in the fine print.” Parking was unpleasant but we figured it out and I was glad it felt safe. The room was in excellent condition. We have zero issues with the cleanliness. But at 1:30am we were awakened by the fire alarm. We descended 5 flights of stairs and waited on the street of downtown Birmingham in our pajamas for the fire dept. They came about 15 minutes later and after an evaluation told us that there was a malfunction with the alarm and that it was safe to go back inside. There was 1 staff person who was on the phone the entire time. She never acknowledged anyone or offered any assistance or apologies. We climbed back up 5 flights of stairs to our room. Five minutes later the alarm went off again. We left our rooms and wondered if we should take it seriously. It stopped within a few minutes so we decided it was a malfunction again. For one and a half hours the alarm went off about every 5 minutes with a flashing strobe light and a shrill piercing alarm. We had to put a pillow over our head but it was far from restful. The next day when I saw a staff person she may have apologized but clearly made light of the issue and simply said “Oh don’t worry we’re getting it fixed.” Obviously she had no idea what it had been like to try to sleep through that kind of experience. It was miserable.

Although the staff was absolutely terrific and the rooms were recently redone and looked great, the area surrounding the hotel is forbidding, unless you are a New Yorker. If you take a taxi and stay in your room, it's pretty good. But if you drive there and occasionally fetch your car, it does not seem safe. Parking has a fence around it, the the guard arm to enter and leave can be easily walked around.

It's sad, really, that Homewood spent so much money making the hotel look great inside. The ceiling fan looked brand new; the walls looked newly painted, with new carpet; the artwork is modern and colorful; the lobby is attractive. So much to like. But the neighborhood is sketchy. Again, if you're accustomed to grungy urban locations, you'll think it's fine. But for travelers accustomed to rural or suburban locations, it may feel edgy.

Stained sofas. Extremely rude overnight front desk attendant. Broken, unsafe Pack n Play provided. Had to leave after one hour due to infant sleep safety concerns and they charged me anyway. DO NOT stay here. They have no intention of providing customer service and absolutely do not care how they treat others.
