I just really booked it for the price. Not that nice but all I had to do was sleep. The pillows were not comfy and flat and not enough pillows, and the A/C was really noisy like a dishwasher running all night long. Ice machines were broken too except for on 3rd floor.

Bathroom walls were dirty with what looked like spots of blood. Bathroom door also had 2-3 large stains. The smoke detector had been taken apart and half of it was missing.

Arrived and bed sheets were dirty. They changed them out after I said something. Hair all in sink and tub. Floors were dirty and seen a roach crawling around. Will not stay here ever again.

Unexpected Room #1 Surprise

First room literally had large drops of condensation on the ceiling dropping onto floor, beds, desk, fridge. We quickly changed rooms. 2nd room bathroom fan (room 206) has large tendrils of dust and dirt hanging from it. It was a busy Univ of Alabama weekend with freshman move-ins. Most other hotels were full and gouging on the price in Tuscaloosa. The rate was reasonable if you're not expecting more than a 2-star experience.

Stay away!

First thing we saw walking into the room was roaches crawling on the floor. The room smelled funky and not good. The building is falling apart and patched back together in crappy fashion. The phones dont work, theres no lights in the ceiling. The toiletries provided are awful. I chose this hotel because it had 8.2 stars and I have no idea how because this had to be the worst hotel I've stayed at. I feel like I deserve a refund.

The Ac sounds like its underwater and not draining properly so all the moisture is in the room. I was so tired after a 15 hour drive to care at this point. Slept. Showered and left
