I travel to Brum usually once a year. We're looking for somewhere to stay which isnt too pricey. Staying for about 10 days and want something central. Used to stay at the Britannic, new st, til it closed down.
I was at the Civil Rights Museum downtown four years ago, but it was dismaying to see so many beautiful buildings that need tenants, business and renovation. There were a LOT of unemployed young men near the police station too.
It’s much better than even before the pandemic. There is a homeless shelter or two right around the police station, which could be why you saw a couple guys hanging around.
Let me know if you have any questions, comments, or recommendations for people who are visiting Birmingham for the first time!
