Hotel SpringHill Suites by Marriott Birmingham Downtown at UAB (Birmingham, USA)

The suites at this hotel attract plenty of positive comments among reviews. They tick the clean and comfy boxes, and guests also say that the beds and showers are great. Those guests who stayed in the one-bedroom suites were particularly impressed by the amount of space on offer.

Most guests found the staff at the SpringHill Suites Birmingham Downtown to be friendly and welcoming. There do appear to be occasional queues at check-in as one member of staff attempts to manage things on their own, but aside from that issue, the service sounds like it is sufficiently attentive.

As this hotel is in the busy downtown area, some noise is likely. Also, several guests comment that they thought the internal soundproofing could be better - as they were able to hear other guests in adjacent rooms.

Although the shuttle is undoubtedly a convenient facility for many guests, a few do mention that they were kept waiting for it to arrive for far longer than they anticipated. Several resorted to calling a cab instead so as not to disrupt their plans.

Although the food served at this hotel is often described as being above average, there does appear to be an issue with overcrowding. A number of guests comment that the service is chaotic simply because of the layout of the dining area. Waiting in line for 30 minutes is not uncommon.
