Walking into the lobby and seeing the people who were sitting there I wasn't sure if I was checking into a motel or hooker convention. The motel is not located in a very good part of town. After checking into the room I had to go back to the lobby to get TP for the bathroom. We were unable to take a shower because there was mold on the shower curtain. If I could have brought my car in the room I would have to make sure it was secure. If I had known about this website with the reviews before hand I sure would not have stayed here. I picked this days inn because it was on our travel route.

My husband and I had no idea when we evacuated during a hurricane we would end up somewhere even more dangerous! When we first arrived it was just after dark. My husband was unloading the car, and I was standing at the front of the hotel waiting outside for him. A patrol car just happened to be driving by, and the next thing I knew he was practically slamming on his brakes in pure awe that I was standing out front. The officer and his partner couldn't get my attention quick enough! He began to ask me if I was staying at the hotel by myself and why was I outside. I told him my husband was unloading the car, so I was waiting wth my cats which I had in carriers. When my husband approached the officer told us not to come out after dark and that I should not go anywhere outside the room by myself! We agreed because there were no other hotels to be had at the time. We were very hungry after driving, so since we shouldn't go out after dark we tried ordering pizza. Not one single place would deliver pizza to this hotel! That's how dangerous it is! Did I mention the motorcycle gang that lives/parties across the street at all times of the day and night? The pool was disgusting, there was mold of course in the toilet and walls of the shower, but the worst part was the yellow dirty pillows under the pillowcase and the gross mattress. I had to use my own blankets from the car to sleep on! This place is right in there with crack house! I don't care what the price is. The only thing decent was the front lobby.

I'm currently sitting in the lobby, since the room was sort of taken back from me? I'm working until very late at night, long turn in a dangerous place about two miles from here. I've been here before frequently, and have survived to this point. Here, it's a choice of getting shot by a 9 x 19mm or run down by a monster truck, so I chose to chance the former? Anyway, the staff is so paranoid they've turned it into kind of a prison stay to be here. Me, I just don't want my room emptied-out since the cleaners simply walk off with your door left open, in an exceedingly scary environment...None of this is an exxageration in the least!

Friendly courteous staff. Stayed there during the holiday's while visiting family in Bham. Staff was knowledgeable of how to get around the city, things to do for fun and shopping. Rooms were impeccably clean and well appointed but not the Marriott. Easy to get on/off the interstate and was just one exit away from a major interstate interchange that would take you to all metro points. Again, staff made the difference at this hotel.
