Toilet ran off and on all night, no soap in the shower and I was double charged for parking.
The hotel was very impressive. Had a great restaurant inside. Very clean and staff was very attentive. Very quiet. Highly recommend to fellow travelers. Only drawback was had to pay $20. for parking.
We enjoyed our stay. Karren, FD reception was welcoming and efficient at checkin. Tisa was amazing at both of our stays at this Hilton. She is kind to everyone and a joy to see first thing in the morning.
Everything was perfect and was within our destination, UAB Hospital, which was of most importance. It was a little pricy for one night, but was necessary.
Room keys were all not working so we had to have someone let us in our room anytime we left. Staff was very friendly & we know it wasn’t their fault but very inconvenient for us

Unimpressed
The food was pricey and the kitchen was out of a lot of listed menu items. Our server was wonderful, however! He was very polite and courteous, I wish I’d written his name down.
Before checking in we waited in the area near the televisions and that area had dirty tables and the bathrooms were not very clean either. O expected so much more from a Hilton property!

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The staff was trying very hard to keep up but with the entire hotel not able to use room keys, it was an impossible task.
When we arrive to our hotel, we were told that there were no available rooms, even though we had already paid for room in advance. We asked to speak to management at that time we were told that they could possibly find an alternative room for us. We waited for approximately 30 minutes, only to be told that there was still no availability. We insisted on waiting at that time the manager came and gave us two options. The first option was to take an alternate room which included a king bed and a pullout sofa which she referred to as a suite. The other option was to cancel our reservation and go to a different hotel for service. We chose option one because it was late in the evening only to find out when we arrive to our room that it was not the king suite we had been promised. It was one queen size bed, and the typical amenities that you find in an average hotel. Additionally, the key card was not working the entire weekend so we had to either leave our room door crack or have one of the staff members open our door for us every time we need to re-enter our room.
Room looked like it hadn’t been cleaned . Piles of hair in the bathroom and beer was left in the refrigerator

The hotel is fine, but we regret having booked through Expedia because the hotel didn't even give us a blanket to give our children extra. The abstraction of tubes was a great experience.
