We will stay here again.
Pros:

This was a great location especially if you are going to the amphitheater for a concert like we did. Lots of restaurants in walking distance. A free shuttle to and from concert venue.

Cons:

We had two double beds not two queen. They were too small for us 4. That could have been an error on my part. I didn’t even know hotels had double beds anymore.

A solid option in Birmingham!
Pros:

My second stay at the property and will definitely return next time Im in the area.

Aside from the convenient location, this hotel just gets it right. Friendly team members, comfortable rooms and flawless delivery of elite benefits.

The pre-arrival and on site welcome from Alyssa on their community engagement team was also appreciated!

I look forward to my future stays.

I will not be doing business with you again. The Westin brand has fallen in my eyes.
Pros:

There was no breakfast that I could see. I inquired, expecting breakfast for the price of the room. Instead, the front desk shipped to the Sheraton, next door, with no vouchers. It was a long walk that we didn't not expect and was easy to get lost. We left the hotel at that point very disappointed. Very little communication by staff. Lots of staff standing around with tons of disappointed consumers waiting to check in. We had an hour long wait to even get into a room at 4pm. Some guests had been waiting hours because they also were confused and uninformed. Check in times are not well communicated directly. What was emailed was different than the website. This failure, on the part of an organization to communicate something as simple as check in, starts the stay off on a bad foot.

Cons:

Poor communication and the absence of an organized breakfast ruined my past trust in the Westin Brand. I had expectations higher than Holiday Inn for those price points at least...The service received was, instead...confused, over-staffed, inexperienced staff, and organization comes off not consumer friendly as a result.

Pros:

The check in process was horrendous. Due to an event several roads were blocked, which was understandable. The problem lies with calling the hotel on 3 different occasions and getting 3 different sets of information on how to get to the hotel/ park/ check in. One one occasion they even told us a manager would come out to speak to parking attendants about or reservation, but no one ever came. This process took over an hour and a half.
No attempts were made to rectify this situation. I was only told ‘there is nothing we can do’ and ‘idk why they told you that’. Thanks
