Holiday Inn Birmingham-Airport by IHG
The room was clean and perfect for a quick stay before my flight. I enjoyed that checkout is much later giving me time to rest. The staff was friendly and answered any questions I had promptly. They offered a free shuttle to the airport which is less than 5 minutes away from the hotel.
