Easy parking. Friendly service. The room was clean and spacious. I appreciate that the room did not have carpet so no overwhelming perfume carpet spray like a lot of hotels have. Bed and linens comfortable.. The bathroom was spacious with a nice big counter to put things on. Shower had great water pressure. The hotel is tucked off the road so you don't hear the interstate traffic like you do just down the road. Glad I found this hotel, I will definitely make this my first choice for an affordable stay in Tuscaloosa when I visit my child at the University.
