disarticulate Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 I happily used your PRICELINE link after researching prices on this forum.HOTWIRE's best deal was $50 for 1 night, so I went to PRICELINE and snatched up the Holiday Inn.Started out in "Airport (BHM)" offering $38 for 1 night. The offer was rejected, and PRICELINE said if I raised my bid to $45 it would be accepted. I declined, added the sector "Central Birmingham" and bumped my offer up to $40.Accepted at $40! Grand total after tax and fees is $54.07.Thanks again! Will follow up with a review of the accommodations. Link to comment

disarticulate Posted January 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2014 I am blown away at the condition of this hotel and the room. The fact that I paid only $40 for this is an absolute steal. The lobby looks brand spanking new with a sizable bar and restaurant. The service was prompt and friendly. The furniture in the room looks brand new and is pretty fancy, even. A good sized refrigerator and microwave are set inside a dedicated cabinet as well as a coffee maker with free coffee, of course. A decent sized flat screen TV and comfortable wingback chair are also notable. The bathroom is just as nice, with updated fixtures and an overall clean look. There is a good sized tub, curved shower rod, and most importantly, the goose-neck showerhead is elevated to about 6'5", which is nice for a 6'3" guy like me. The only downside I would say is the loud air conditioner.There is also free WiFiVery pleased with this outcome, thanks BB. Link to comment
