I'm working on a project setting up small meetings around the country. No sleeping rooms just a meeting for 25 with F&B. I've called four properties in Birmingham, Alabama and none of them will book a space for me until I'm 30 days out. The rule is I need a minimum of 10 sleeping rooms to book. A few have offered with a big room rental fee. I've set up about 24 meetings and except for a few I'm booking them right away. It's interesting to do so many at once to compare the response time and how easy they make the process.

All the best!
