I should have reviewed this place last year, but it slipped my mind. Several friends and I travel to Alabama every year for the Nascar race at Talladega. We always hunt for a good place to stay and a fair rate. a person from our group found this hotel via the Internet which appeared to be nice via their website. All lies we arrived to find No ...
This hotel is a drug dealers paradise. Lord have mercy, there was smoke all up in the hallways, bunch of thugs and young bucks everywhere screamin and hollerin. This place needs to be shut down!! To top that off, they have the decensy to charge rates as high as the Hilton and Marriott's and not even remotely worth it!! Please read the reviews ...
My husband and I made reservations to stay at this hotel and what a mistake we made. The name maybe nice, but the hotel is far from it. First off, we could not even find the hotel, we literally drove around for 45 minutes looking for this hotel. Its in the worst location. Second, when we arrived we couldn't find any parking. No, not because ...
When we first approached it...it was like coming to a haunted house. Its in the middle of nowhere and dark as dark as can be. The sservice was TERRIBLE!!!!!! ROOMS WERE NASTY!! There was a roach on the bed and a spider on the wall! Pubes in the bathroom and a condom on top of the TV, Enough said about the rooms. We walked down demanding our money ...

Consider yourself WARNED! BEWARE
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 03/02/09
Where do I begin? I was lured to this hotel on a view of a crummy downtown Birmingham. Trust me, its not all that great. The front desk had no idea what they were doing. Checked me innto a dirty room then later checked me into a room that was occupied and I walked in on a couple doing...well you know. I mean serioulsy, this hotel is a joke. The ...

A Nice Place to Stay
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/23/08
I had a nice stay at this hotel. Its not new, but it is well kept. Great View!!! I didnt have bugs or smell problems. Others may had a smoking room, but all smoking rooms smell when you don't smoke.

Great Place to Stay
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 04/15/08
We spent Sunday night at the Alta Vista and had a wonderful stay. The rooms we had had a great view of downtown Birmingham. There were big pillows, fresh sheets, new blanket and bedspreads. The carpet was in great shape. We didn't worry about going barefooted. The bathrooms were very clean. The hotel is not new but it looks great.
When ...

Wow! What a View!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/31/07
First of all, the view from our room was SPECTACULAR! The hotel itself is a nice surprise- a great deal for the money. A little hard to find, but worth it. Service was good- relaxed southern hospitality. The breakfast is good and they have a bar now.

Nice place for a bargain
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/31/07
The hotel staff is very helpful and friendly. The carpet is new throughout. There is a full breakfast of the true southern fare. Most of all, they have a great view of the city.

You Will Be Sorry
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/31/07
This place was filthy. The carpet in the lobby was filthy. The carpet in our room was filthy with stains. The curtains, lamp shades and based was loaded with dust. In fact, the curtains and carpet was stinky. The bathroom tub, toilet, and floor need a good scrubbing.
The breakfast, was designed to give you a heart attack: grits with butter, ...
