Hilton Garden Inn Hotels in Vestavia Hills

This was a good hotel overnight staff were very respectful

If I could give zero stars I would. After arriving to the hotel at 11pm things just got worse by the minute. While the sole gentleman there was kind, that's all I can say about this place. The lobby had a smell of smoke, age, and dirt but checked in anyway and got room key. ROOM 310. As we ventured thru the breezeway it had every element of a Dateline Show! Dark, sketchy, dirty, everything. Upon entering the room, I was mortified. PLEASE KNOW MY STANDARDS ARE NOT HIGH, so even for me this was WHOA. Room was filthy, horrible smell smoke, dirt, and Lord knows what...Floors felt like laminate covering a sink hole, lamp shade still with plastic that was covered in grime and some liquid, holes in the wall, LARGE dry wall holes, door felt like the wind would bring it down,..then the bathroom! Looked like blush was wiped on the wall In 4 huge areas (or blood, let's say blush) towels dirty and obvious excessive wear, I think if used you'd come out dirtier than when ya went in... I will say with certainty this was the worse hotel I have ever seen. It was so bad we literally were in little room long enough to see enough and headed to the front desk. Asked for another room, none available so we literally walked away from $200 and felt 100% ok with that...ended up sleeping in the car with my daughter. It was so sketchy, and filthy, there was no way I could stay there with her! Literally she even asked about how safe we or our car was, and since I couldn't honestly guarantee anything we had to go! Avoid avoid avoid!! Worst hotel ever seen and I've seen some doozies. Just regret not taking pics, as you have to see this to believe that this is allowed and acceptable...(this was room 131) DO NOT STAY HERE!!!
