Red Roof Inn Birmingham South
This was a great value for the price. The recently upgraded room was clean and comfortable, although I am not a big fan of heavy air freshener. The shower was hot with good water pressure. I would stay here again

Not the best, my room stunk so bad of cigarettes and weed. Everything was sticky in my room. There’s was a flickering light right outside my window that the curtains couldn’t even cover. Won’t be back

Breakfast was very nice. Parking is NOT FREE, and they really want you to use valet even though there is enough parking.
