I've stayed here before, but they have no cont breakfast now, no coffee in lobby. No coffee maker in rooms. Floor stayed wet the entire time we have been here. And now the heat/air unit quit working. It's cold. This is expensive for these rooms and no coffee makers. Not even ice machine or vending machine.

Room was disgusting. Stains on bed and chair. Door lock was broken and a fire hazard I couldn’t get out of room. Then the smoke detector was chirping. The front desk wouldn’t give me a new room. Kept me up fixing door and lock and smoke detector. Was so dirty but I was tired and just needed sleep. Grossest room ever

This hotel is garbage! The toilet was leaking. There were no sheets on the bed. There were people hanging out in the parking lot. I don’t recommend it to anyone who values quality.

Place looked ran down when I pulled up. It was just me and about 3-4 cars in the parking lot. Lady in the front was cool. Whenever I got into the room it literally smelled like mildew. I was in there for 3-5mins before having to turn in my keys. You’ve been warned.

This place was so run down and unsafe. I left before unpacking. If I could leave photos you’d see a pool filled with black water filthy and rusty exterior, a broken sharp soap holder in the bathroom, stains on the chair and mattress that were disgusting. I wouldn’t leave a dog there.

I book a room at this accommodation at last minute, so this is my last choice because other hotels all sold out. This hotel has fair price which is the lowest in Fultondale. So people who just need a place to stay overnight, this would be fine. For who want to discover the area with a clean & comfortable place to stay, this is not the one. In the room just has basically a bed to sleep & a bathroom. It doesn’t have napkin, coffee machine or the iron machine. All the bed sheet & cushion is kinda old & smell not good. The surround area the place is not clean. It feel like unsafe at night too.
