Reviews for Best Western Plus Carlton Suites - Birmingham

Review 1：Wish the shower had a little more water pressure. I hate the water savers in the shower heads.

Review 2：The location was a few miles from downtown and had plenty of restaurants to choose from in walking distance.

Review 3：My family and I was in town for a funeral.The hotel manager was very helpful and accommodating. The pull out bed was broken and he moved us right away. He made sure we were happy and comfortable.

Review 4：management's outgoing support and friendliness; large, clean rooms; excellent complimentary breakfast inc comfortable surroundings; free weekday cocktail hours.

Review 5：Only ice machine on 1st floor with so many rooms a must

Review 6：Comfortable room, great shower, friendly staff, great breakfast, had indoor pool we didn't use it was very clean. Well maintained

Review 7：The black lady that works in the breakfast buffet was very rude you guys need to talk to her about treating your customers right I feel like much as that room cost I should not have to deal with rudeness she is very very unprofessional

Review 8：Cleanliness of the room and the confort

Review 9：The room doesn't smell clean. I believe it's the old carpet curtains or the sofa. We stayed there for one night during the road trip. It's a good place for a stopover, but not for business stay or a long-term stay.

Review 10：Location is nice

Review 11：Nothing at all to complain about. Very pleased.

Review 12：Very pleased! I'm very picky and it's always scary to books room online. This place was very nice, granted it's not the Hilton but it was nice and clean and exceeded my expectations. We booked a room for the oct. rave at talledega. $300 for 2 nights.we had a room on the 3rd floor with a king be and a pull out couch. Bedding was already in the room for pull out couch for our son. Desk and chair for an extra sitting area, 40 inch or so tv in middle of room, kitchenette area with an extra sink, coffee pot, fridge and microwave. Room had a closet with a full size ironing board an iron. Air worked great, blow dryer in room. Couldn't have ask for better accommadations. Housekeeping came in while we were out Saturday and made beds an left fresh towels, extra toiletpaper, and néw shampoo and soap. Breakfast from 6-9, best biscuits I ever had, bacon, eggs, sausage, gravy, cereal,pastries, etc. We don't drink but it looks like they also have coctails in the afternoon. Also, not sure if he was the manager or owner, but a man can in at breakfast an greeted everyone and thanks them for staying in the hotel. Awesome hotel, will stay again. Again, I'm very picky and feel relieved to have found this hotel.

Review 13：N/A

Review 14：Staff was very Friendly, helpful, polite. Cleanliness, decor, availability. Breakfast was O so delightful. I came every morning & the biscuits to die for!

Review 15：We had to go buy an air mattress because the pull out couch was broke. We had two kids already asleep in the room when we realized this.

Review 16：The room was a good size

Review 17：The long walk to our room, should be more entrances towards the elevators, the room was outdated and poorly situated especially the bathroom and noises from parking lot were heard on 4th floor.

Review 18：The breakfast was awesome

Review 19：Our room was very fresh and clean and very comfortable. Traveling with our two dogs we were very happy to find such a nice hotel. The hot breakfast was also very good.

Review 20：Cheaply updated. The sink and mirror were in the bedroom. The layout of the room was not functional to our needs, but the staff was friendly.

Review 21：Right off the interstate

Review 22：Liked everything here with exception of having just an ordinary breakfast. Many other Best Westerns do a better job on this.

Review 23：Located in a quiet area near the Interstate. Friendly front desk staff. Hotel was exceptionally clean. Near attractions (Mercedes Benz Factory Tour and Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum) that made this an ideal location for us.

Review 24：No negative experience with this stay. I checked out early, before breakfast opened, so I do not know the level of quality that was provided.

Review 25：Very much satisfied with my stay.

Review 26：The pool area could use some work.

Review 27：This was, by far, one of our nicest mini-vacations. The staff were so nice, helpful, and friendly. This hotel was extremely clean, and up to date. The grounds are absolutely gorgeous! We will definitely stay here anytime we are in the area, or just passing thru. 10 of 10 in my book!

Review 28：Some of the equipment of the gym on longer worked.

Review 29：The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast very good. Very well located two minutes from the highway.

Review 30：Killed a cockroach in our room which was unsettling and grossed us out...made it hard to sleep that night. Was disappointed that there were full-size beds instead of Queen-size.

Review 31：Great location, great breakfast! The family suite was perfect for the 5 of us

Review 32：Overall had a pretty good experience.

Review 33：Stayed one night passing through on our way to Florida. Easy access, spacious room. Good continental breakfast, nice pool. Close restaurant called Landry's... YUMMY food!

Review 34：The hotel is old and they have painted the walls but the carpet was old and the bathtub was old... The staff was really nice but the rooms were not up to my usual standards

Review 35：The staff was great!

Review 36：The staff was friendly and rooms were very nice. The full breakfast was free and delicious. Area surrounding hotel was quiet and safe, yet it was in the midst of other businesses, including banks and restaurants.

Review 37：The noise over my head. You could hear people walking and children running all during the day and night. The bed was a little too hard for me.

Review 38：Staff was friendly. Breakfast was very good. Even the happy hour was nice. Room was clean. Had enough towels to shower at night and the next morning.

Review 39：IAt breakfast, I asked the manager would he take care of the low volume tv and the squeaky closet door in our room.The problem still existed at check-out.

Review 40：Excellent location!

Review 41：A top notch hotel!

Review 42：Top rate staff, nice manager's "happy hour", good breakfast, spacious, clean, comfortable room, good wifi. Close to hiway entrance for business travel.

Review 43：Hard time finding it. Need larger sign coming off interstate... other than that, great place to stay.

Review 44：clean, comfortable, ..... will definitely come back.

Review 45：The location was very user friendly and the staff were excellent. Rooms were very clean and they serve a very good breakfast. Ronnie the hotel manger is a great guy.

Review 46：Not having my reservation when we arrived so we had to contact booking.com and called the hotel to confirm our reservation. They eventually gave us 3 rooms but it took about 30 minutes and my family was exhausted from traveling.

Review 47：I liked the room size, staff was friendly, breakfast had a large selection and the hotel was clean.

Review 48：The elevator broke and couldn't be fixed until Monday. Many people were inconvenience. They needed a better response time to this important problem There are four levels in this location.

Review 49：Cleanliness, location and price

Review 50：Windows don't open and air conditioner was loud to sleep through. Mediocre breakfast options.

Review 51：Location was convenient, staff helpful, price was reasonable. Good reading lights in bedroom.

Review 52：Bathroom small; needs to have a mirror away from where the bed is, so someone can get ready and not disturb the person still sleeping (over the desk in the sitting area, perhaps)

Review 53：Very good location; very friendly staff; delicious breakfast; Mon.-Thurs., Manager's Reception with free drinks and appetizers from 5:00pm-7:00pm; close to lots of restaurants!

Review 54：No negative comments

Review 55：Great value! Plenty of towels etc - very clean; great happy hour. Missed the free breakfast since we overslept in our comfy king size bed!

Review 56：The manager was helpful and extremely courteous. The bed was comfy and the room was an excellent value. Breakfast was very tasty (even though a tad less than hot, but 30 secs in the microwave fixed that!). Would stay here again without question.

Review 57：Could not locate an entrance that did not require carrying luggage up or down steps to gain access to the luggage cart.

Review 58：Seemingly small issues that are really thoughtful and helpful such as labeled entrances (A, B, C, etc.) Tub "leak" guards are a smart idea. Front landscaping and fountain were great. Well cleaned!

Review 59：Tv is located on wall positioned between bed and couch. Regardless ifyour in bed or sitting on couch it's not a straight on viewlocation. It's attached to wall and no option to swivel. I recommenda mount that pulls away from wall so that you can turn in directionneeded for better view. I was on second floor and floor above me is veryloud. You can hear every step taken.

Review 60：Shower head was like getting a message. Most places you stay water isnot strong and yours is exceptional.

Review 61：The staff (from the manager to housekeeping) was constantly visible, busy, and aiming to please. The indoor pool was such a blessing because we could swim despite the weather conditions.

Review 62：room above has wood floors and the children running around late at night was a problem.

Review 63：clean and breakfast was above average. mattress was comfortable and we had a good night's sleep.

Review 64：For the price I can't think of a needed improvement.

Review 65：The rooms were spacious and very nice. Service great. Both breakfast and evening light meal served. And for business travelers that is welcome.

Review 66：The after hour vending machines were rather expensive and the variety was sparse. Why don't hotels supply a TV guide?

Review 67：The breakfast buffet was great - waffles, eggs, sausage, bacon, biscuits and gravy, fresh fruit, plus yogurt. And the coffee was delicious. I worked out in the gym everyday but the pool looked wonderful! The manager was both personable and gregarious. Housekeeping was helpful and friendly. Within walking distance of several restaurants and cl po se to WalMart.

Review 68：The only think thst i did not like that breakfast end earlly at 0900 if they extend it to 1000 it will be good.

Review 69：Good hotel clean and wide room . Mony worth

Review 70：When booked on line I was lead to believe that it was close to the airport for an overnight stay. Really.....taxi fare was $120.00 return. Made it a really expensive short stay for an early morning flight.

Review 71：Not very much at all

Review 72：Mold on surface of grout in bathtub as I recall. My "read" of the room is that the hotel has not had an R&R of the rooms in some years.

Review 73：Price & parking close to room, friendliness of staff, complimentary breakfast

Review 74：In the pool area I did not find a restroom. I had to go back to my room......But the warm water in the pool was just perfect, and I am most peculiar about water temperature.

Review 75：The entrance was very well decorated. The staff more than friendly and helpful The manager most caring and willing the please the clients. The rooms very well appointed, with everything you would need for a short or long stay.

Review 76：the televison in the front area and the one in the bedroom only could get a few channels. i'm just thankful we could get the kids channels. so they were happy.

Review 77：everything from the staff when we first checked in until the next morning the manager greeted each guest at breakfast. and the breakfast was very good the kids even ate everything on their plates. the room was spaceious and the beds were so confortable.

Review 78：A dead roach in my room, otherwise very clean.

Review 79：My stay was longer than I planned. The manager was very helpful, giving me the best rates for the extra nights.

Review 80：The staff was absolutely the most friendly and helpful of any staff I have seen. We had car trouble and they were more than willing to help in any way. Outstanding service!!

Review 81：The older lady who worked the front counter wasnt as friendly as the others. She was rather rude to my husband.

Review 82：I needed to check in early, and I was able to check in 3-4 hours early. The breakfast was awesome. Great staff!!!!! With the exception of one of the front desk clerks.

Review 83：While it was announced that we would be with our 14-year old son, his sofa bed wasn't made. When asked to fix this while we were eating out in Birmingham, we were told to do it ourselves. So we did, but it's not what one should expect for this class of a hotel. Shame.

Review 84：Clean and spacy room with King Size bed, kitchen sink and seating area. Reception in the afternoon with free drinks and food for guests. Good breakfast included. Wifi. Easy parking.

Review 85：Everything. It is the best 'Best Western' lodging that we've had over the years. Comfy bed and nice TV. I would definitely stay at the Carlton again. (Wish all of your hotels were this nice. We stayed at one in Franklin, TN. that was very disappointing. TV didn't work due to Comcast problems, etc....
