“SCARY”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed April 11, 2012

I traveled to Tuscaloosa with my sisters, and reserved a room for 2 nights. This was one of the worst places I have ever stayed in. It was WAY overpriced. I didnt have much of a choice most of the rooms were sold out. They charged WAY too much. I reserved a "No Smoking" room,but it was very very obvious that i had been given a room that had smokers in it. I couldnt even go into the room because of the overwhelming smell of smoke,and I am a smoker. The staff was very unfriendly, but did move us to an upstairs room. No elevator.. Room was so out dated that we had to take pictures and send it to friends. We slept in our jeans with our hoodies on because we were doubting the cleanliness of the room. The bathroom door did not close and the shower did not work properly. We were fearful that bugs would get into our luggage so we dragged our stuff to the car for the night. Even though we paid for two nights we could not stay for more that one. We traveled to Birmingham and stayed somewhere else. We are all college educated professionals and have traveled quite extensively. I would NEVER stay here again!!! If the other rooms in town are sold out I would stay out of town.

Room Tip: Go elsewhere please

“It was a nightmare and I was overcharged!!!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed November 2, 2011

I stayed at the facility for 2 days. IT WAS HORRIBLE. Let's see where to begin....The staff was unfriendly, the room was dirty, the bed was uncomfortable, the hairdryer was a complete joke! (from 1900's), the housekeeping staff were rude and never had any clean laundry ready.... also when i checked out, I was double charged on my credit card. so if you stay here pay with cash, NOT YOUR CREDIT OR DEBIT CARD.

Room Tip: There is nothing i can help you with here

“Sufficient but needs improvement.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 23, 2011

Stayed over the weekend of TN/AL football game so prices were close to $200 and everywhere is sold out- This was last option and not altogether a bad choice. Young lady that checked me in was uber helpful and even helped me carry bags to my room!! For a busy weekend like that there definitely needs to be more than 1 front desk person though. My room was quiet, breakfast was sufficient and had a small hot buffet, and everything seemed to be very clean. My biggest complaint was this hotel is not Sleep Inn anymore- it has been changed to Rodeway Inn and I drove around for half an hour looking for Sleep Inn- No one called to inform me of this and I did not appreciate that. If your going to change the name and signs, please let the guest know AHEAD of time!!

Room Tip: I got a non smoking room and wouldnt sleep anywhere else! You can definitely tell that people are sm...

“This place reeked and management was less than sincere”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed September 6, 2011

This place reeks of cigarrette smoke- management was less than willing to provide comfort- bad experience here- go down the road. They don't care about the customer.

“HOTEL IS RUN DOWN, NEEDS TO BE REMODELED!!!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed April 18, 2011

We stayed at this property a few years ago and felt it was adequate for our needs-reasonable price for a good night's sleep while taking care of family business nearby. This visit however did not meet our expectations. The hotel is very run down. Our room contained extremely out dated furniture which was dirty. The mattresses were lumpy, the linens were scratchy. We chose a handicapped room. The bathroom was large but the tub/shower was inaccessible to the handicapped person in our group because it was a standard tub. The only handicap accomodations in the bathroom was the bars next to the toilet. The hair dryer literally looked like it was made around 1960 and was broken. The carpeting was filthy. This trip was unexpected and this hotel was the only Choice property that had rooms available due to a huge UA event. Therefore we just went to bed and checked out the next day to find another motel.
