My five-star review was primarily due to the exceptional staff. Walter, the valet, set the tone with his outstanding service. Given the challenges of parking in downtown Birmingham, opting for the hotel's valet service proved worthwhile. My room's cleanliness and amenities were consistently maintained thanks to Angie from housekeeping. Throughout my stay, Rere and Charlea provided friendly assistance around the clock. Although I only visited the bar/restaurant once, the attendant's warm hospitality left a lasting impression. My stay was 3 due to a family emergency but I enjoyed the stay so much, I booked an additional night to just relax.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was big but not much furniture. Design needed work. Elevator was unsafe and broken. Breakfast was very good but took a long time. We used to stay at this property when it was not a Hotel Indigo. It was quirky and fun and clean and safe. It is none of those things now. We won’t go back.

Minor Adjustments
The hotel overall was not bad. The suite rooms are huge. They advertised a restaurant and bar but the employee told us they did not have a restaurant but found out he was lying and didn’t want to cook the day of checkout and the bar because they were serving breakfast and the bar was very mediocre compared to the photos and advertisement. Valet is not 24hrs and you have to wait until they come back to work to retrieve your vehicle and they do not advertise that it is valet only. Rooms were huge but the refrigerator in the room did not get cold, no trash cans but one small one in bedroom, curtains were semi coming off, the club beside it played music all night, and the elevator needs some maintenance. Conveniently located 2 minutes from UAB which is perfect! They also sit on a strip that have a lot of eateries around them. Overall experience was not bad but just some minor adjustments need to be made. However, I would stay here again for the convenience of getting to UAB.

I should have read the reviews first. The hotel room itself was nice enough, tho not clean. Crumbs from prior guests snacks on the floor. A swimsuit top liner was abandoned by prior guests as well. No housekeeping service even on request. Elevator broken. Bar service limited. You can do better anywhere else

Only thing was parking. Was imformed upon arrival that there was valet parking which I wasnt expecting. Then in am there was no one available to get my car. I was told that I could take elevator to basement and get my car. I could have saved a little by not using valet and parked it myself, but wasn't informed. All is good now. Thanks
