Great room for a great price
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/14/09
Room was clean and odorless; beds were comfortable. TV worked. The evening was quiet, but we were there during the week. Too cold to use the pool.
 
 
 
 
 
I DO NOT RECOMMEND
By Tanya C, 02/11/09
Me and my mom stayed here cause my sister was having surgery at the UAB Hospital. I DO NOT RECOMMEND this hotel. The staff is rude. The elevator is old and wore out. Sounds like it is trying to open the door in the process for moving up or down. There were NASTY DIRTY towels in front of our room door when we got there at midnight on the 9th of feb. We had no choice but to stay that night. But we checked out first thing the next morning. The shuttle to the hospital was not running. There was people screaming and yelling all night outside our door. The security guard was VERY RUDE!!!!!! If they are going to be a hotel for the hospital visitors then I suggest they do a renovation and do it soon. It was horrible. I WILL NOT EVER STAY THERE AGAIN NOR WILL I REFER ANYONE TO IT.. BEWARE it is not a clean or safe place to stay. The waffle house that is located inside is NASTY ... The workers did not have on hairnets or anything while preparing food. They were not friendly at all........

Terrible Place to Stay while having family at the UAB Medical Center
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/06/07
The Medical Center Inn has not been affiliated with Best Western since May of 2006. We were given the a room that was occupied by someone. On second try we were given a room that smelled musty, had roaches and bath room floor and the wall and floor next to the inside bed was squishy wet and had been for a while due to line on the wall where it was soaked.. We were told at the front desk that everyone has roaches and that we needed to use the other side of bed until maintenance could come, which they never did... The good thing was they have a shuttle van to and from UAB Medical Center which saved everyone a parking fee... We did tip the drivers. The van itself was dirty but we did not have far to travel...

In a good place
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/02/07
It was really in a good place. Not knowing our way around the area and having family members having major surgery on the same day. It was really a blessing to find them and the lady at the front dest was very helpful. We will be staying there again anytime we have to go back to UAB hospital for overnight visit. I will tell others about it and it also close to a nice place to eat without having to do a lot of driving around, after a long ride and all the walking you have to do over at the hospital
 
 
 
 
 
Cordial Staff & Great Room
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/20/07
We came to B'ham to see Dave Ramsey LIVE at Bartow Arena in May and picked the Medical Center Inn for a one-night stay. The staff was wonderful and we had a complementary van service to and from our event at Bartow that evening. Our room was well appointed, clean and comfortable. In the afternoon we lounged by the pool and swam a bit in a comfortable clean environment. If staying in the UAB area again, we would not hesitate to stay at the Medical Center Inn. Thanks, Melissa and Paul Ledbetter Tallassee, Alabama
 
 
 
 
 
DON'T STAY HERE
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/16/07
The customer service is so poor words can not describe it. Rude clerks, dirty rooms, poor housekeeping staff, poor computer systems.....PAY THE MONEY FOR THE MARRIOT
 
 
 
 
 
the manager is very nice and helpful
By educated mom, 01/09/07
We have stayed there a total of 3 times for 1 week each time and the employees were very helpful and nice. The room was clean and good for the money. With the rating below you need to remember its a college town and soemtimes you get the college kids in there and they party and have fun. That should not reflect on the hotel but on the people that made the mess. Try and remember that when you are staying there. If you are there for a medical appt at the UAB then you will be too busy to notice anyway. I enjoyed having a room close to UAB where My son was staying.
 
 
 
 
 
Overcharged
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/08/06
I was also charged for a 5 night stay when only staying one night. I contacted the manager to refund my credit card and it still hasn't happened. Other than the overcharge the hotel was better than standard for the advertised price but sub par for the price I was charged.
