"Room Very Good Breakfast Not Good."
Overall Score4.0/ 5
Very much appreciate the UAB Hospital discount which we've used five 6 times over the last year or two. The last couple of visits has seen vastly declining quality of the breakfast buffet in terms of cold food (all buffet items), late opening/not prepared to be open and no coffee server followup for a refill.

"Poor"
Overall Score2.0/ 5
We had to use the emergency heat in the room as the heater would not come on at the regular settings. There was no alarm clock and the phone wake up call we requested was late. There was limited hot water in the shower, so my partner ended up with a cold and quick one. the room was very sparse we requested additional hot tea as there was one tea and one coffee in the room never was able to find any additional pods at the front desk or never received the delivered services. Very disappointed this is not our usual experience with Hilton.
