No Jacuzzi room advertised. I asked to switch rooms upon arrival. I was told that the room was $150. Expedia commission wasn't added to Jacuzzi room price so I was out of pocket around $187 for the switch. I think it would have been well for that to be explained in advanced. Jacuzzi was barely over a one person jet tub and not enjoyable for more than one person at a time.

We had to pay a ridiculous price bc of it being an Alabama Home game. Not even close to being worth what we paid. Price gouging at its finest.

Great Place, but ...
Aside from the UA home-game price gouging (a sin of which all Tuscaloosa-area hotels are guilty), the lack of a shower curtain and an inoperable hair dryer, the room was exceptionally clean.

Disgusting! Walked in, towels were super thin and completely STAINED, the package of soap had black dirt or something all over it. So filthy. We left and decided to eat the cost. We wouldn’t have been comfortable enough to sleep there anyway. Stay FAR AWAY!!!!! *only booked bc we were there for bama game and options were very limited.

Unpleasant stay
The night clerk was nice. The a/c worked. Breakfast was advertised, but there was none, including no coffee. There is no coffee in the room or lobby. The hair dryer did not work. There were not enough towels or soap. The day clerk was asleep and not minding the desk at 6:45am. I will go elsewhere. Even the price doesn’t justify the lack of attention.

Dirty towels in the room when we arrived. The hair dryer did not work. The towels were not replaced - we had to go get them. The bed was comfortable and the shower worked. We had to go get more toilet paper. There were no tissues.

Nasty unsafe place. When I checked in, I had to pay because they did not have anything for your company. Ten, I was never able to find anyone at the front desk the entire two days I was there. We left a day early because of concern.
