Travel tips
Because the hotel sits off Interstate 65 in a commercial area, having a car is useful for reaching attractions like Vulcan Park and Museum (~6.7 km) and the Birmingham Museum of Art (~9.3 km).

If you are booking for a short visit, confirm whether any minimum-stay rules apply for your dates.
