Review I had a disappointing experience during my stay at this establishment. The service was extremely poor, and the receptionist (old woman) was rude, unhelpful, and lacked basic politeness in their communication. I was promised an extra bed, which I never received. Additionally, they assured me they would replace the uncomfortable sofa double bed with two separate ones, but they failed to deliver on that promise. The bed quality was absolutely terrible and made for an unpleasant sleep. The bathroom was also subpar, with water not draining properly and the bidet sometimes not functioning at all. As for breakfast, it was very modest with limited options and fell far below expectations. Overall, I would not recommend this place due to the lack of service and poor facilities.

Angels without wings
Absolutely above and beyond. Wasn't planning on having to stay overnight in Birmingham but I missed my flight due to being stress and all that goes with bearevment. I wasn't going to post a review until later but wanted to thank everyone at Holiday Inn Express Birmingham for a bright light on a dark day. They did everything, even booked my taxi for this morning. They fed and watered me and just really, really gave me a much needed lift.
