Hampton Inn & Suites Birmingham-Downtown-Tutwiler
The room was lovely, clean, and warm in a crazy cold snap. The staff were all lovely, welcoming, and helpful. Breakfast was yummy, fresh, and hot with lots of great options, even on a quieter weekday morning. I would definitely choose to stay here again.
