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. ...

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 ...

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 ...

Cordial Staff & Great Room
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/19/07
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 ...

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
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 ...

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.
I STAYED IN THE HOTEL ON 06/07/06 AND THE HOTEL WAS VERY DECENT AND CLEAN. IT WAS NOT HIGH $67 BUCKS AND I WILL RETURN BECAUSE OF THE VALUE AND QUIETNESS IT WAS WORTH IT. THE SWIMMING WAS VERY CLEAN. I LIKED THE PLEASANT ATMOSPHERE AND CLEANNESS

Great for weekend UAB students
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/23/06
We were there in August....temps in the upper 90's and the air conditioner worked great. Beds were comfortable. The bathroom was very clean. Maid service was excellent. Got extra towels and cups when asked. Took only a few minutes to get to UAB weekend classes. Plan on staying every month there.
