2-Star Hotels in Tuscaloosa

Clean enough and fairly quiet under the week. However, unfriendly staff, not the least bit welcoming. Breakfast was limited and the coffee was coming out in the form of water....,took out the charge for the room and a security deposit was taken out for 100 additional dollars and it took four days to get back. They made you feel like some kind of criminal when checking in. Warning after warning.... no welcoming feeling.

I will start by saying that the staff was great and the hotel was basically clean. The overall issue is maintenance. A little paint, calk and TLC would go a long way here. I would start with fixing the signs light bulbs. The room smelled musty and the AC struggled. The curtain was torn and the TV was dated. The furniture was worn and threadbare. The bed was comfortable and clean. The breakfast bar was done in the cheap. No oatmeal on sad looking meat, 2 pieces of toast in the basket and the waffle mix/syrup were empty.

Room was clean and hotel was quiet, but 2 major issues. 1. We arrived a little early. I asked about early check in and was told $20 per hour. I can understand this if housekeepers are still working or if guests were checking in or out, but there were 2 cars in parking lot - one of which was front desk person. We just went shopping for that one hour rather than pay this. 2. Though I requested a non-smoking room, was charged $50 to ensure I didn’t smoke in the room. I asked if guests in smoking rooms had to pay a deposit - blank look. Was told I would get deposit refunded in 5 days after checkout, but had to call 3 times. This gouging for every extra dollar is ridiculous and I will not stay at this chain again.

All seemed fine until night time. My daughter opened up the pull out sofa and the mattress was saturated with blood stains. Not just a drop or two - one-third of the mattress was covered. ( I have photos). I immediately went down to the front desk to request a replacement and I showed the photos. The gentleman was very nonchalant and seemed disinterested in helping me. He said that we could remove the mattress but that there were no other ones available. I said YES, I definitely want it removed. Just the thought that it's in there is grossing us all out.. But I told him that I NEEDED another (clean!) mattress because we needed the sleeping space. Well, he eventually admitted that there was another room, just like the one I had, so I asked him to please have the mattresses switched. Instead, he attempted to have me switch rooms. I declined that option because my (1) teen daughters were already in pajamas, and (2) we had arrived at the hotel earlier that day and had taken the time to unload ALL of our belongings (took forever) into the room, plus (3) I had already gone through the trouble of sanitizing the current room. (4) Lastly, when we had first arrived to check in and requested to check in early, the attendant was kind enough to tell me that she could get us into a room right away but to be warned that the room was on the ”highway side” of the hotel and that some people complain about the noise. So i told her I'd just wait until the regular checkin time and get a quieter room. This is my 4th reason for declining the room change, because I didn't want a noisier room. In any case, I asked him if he could simply have someone change out the mattresses for us. He said no because he was the only one there and that he'd have the ”shut down the hotel” in order for him to do it himself. So I said ”well can I do it? Because it's highly unfeasible for us to load up and switch rooms at this hour.” So, yes, I had to move the disgusting mattress out of my room myself, and there were no gloves for me to use. I then had to go to a room on a different floor to grab the clean mattress off that sofa bed, load it onto the elevator, and drag it back to my room. After all was done - i had to return the room key for the new room to the attendant, he tells me that ”someone in housekeeping actually DID come in for the evening shift.” And he finally changed his tune and was nice and apologized, but I was NOT happy having to handle a mattress with what looked like someone elses body fluids. Also, the shower was lined in what looked like mildewy dust - so it was not probably cleaned at all. The trash can liners were not properly installed. Crumbs were on the floor. This was a convenient location, but I would not stay here again. It looks nice at first glance, but if you want REAL clean and not the kind of ”clean” your kids will do to their rooms, I advise against staying here. Oh lastly - when the sofa bed is opened (on the King studio room with pull-out sofa),
