Courtyard Birmingham Homewood

Was in Homewood for the first time for business, and stayed at this Courtyard which was in a convenient location right by the hospital, shopping center across the street and corporate parks. It's in a nice area overall with hills and trees all around. The layout is different than your typical hotel or Courtyard in that it has a courtyard in the middle where the pool is outdoors. It's nice for a relaxing time on the balcony or outside the patio door in you are on the ground level. The room is quite minimalist / plain. Not that big either. On the plus side - there was a standing shower. The room did provide a good night sleep. They had plenty of firm pillows unlike so many hotels where your head goes straight thru the pillow onto the mattress. And the HVAC controls allowed for a steady temperature throughout the day/night. I could hear some neighboring noise through the connecting noise even though the guest in the next room wasn't being that allowed. There was also no bottles of water in the room which seems to be the Courtyard way nowadays. The gym was small - a little disappointed in it. No exercise bike and just a few machines or stations. I do expect to be in the area 1-2X a year and I'd be satisfied in staying at this Courtyard again.

This is the newest hotel in Birmingham and it shows. Rooms are kept very clean. Premises are in a wooded shady area of Birmingham and there is a Target store right across the road. Rooms have refrigerators. Only downside we saw is that the iron in our room leaked and the iron in another room had gunk all over it -- so ironing was a challenge!

We love staying at this hotel when we are in town. The housekeeping never attempted to clean and restock our room — had to ask twice and all we received were fresh towels. Toilet paper was not restocked and had to go to the front desk multiple times to replenish the coffee for the coffee maker. This is not the first time this has happened to us at this same hotel. The mattresses on the beds are a bit hard. Regardless, we had a lovely stay.

The property was clean, quiet, and comfortable.

Nice area close to the Dr office I had to visit

All non-alcoholic drinks were $5.50. for a bottle of soda... Food was missing an order and was outrageously priced as well as was the price of the rooms. I went down to purchase another room for my party. The room was going to be 199.00$. charged my card 260.00$! Just a price gouging company sheesh. If you like hidden fees, this is the hotel for you!

Terrible experience for loyal Marriott Platinum. Won’t return. The front desk failed twice upon our arrival and never expressed any appreciation for our loyalty or platinum level. The food server was great and the rooms clean. Beds are not great. They need to improve their first impression and overall services

They could really do a coffee bar for the guests and have a better breakfast option

It was very nice and the hotel was very nice
