The Alamite, Tuscaloosa, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

10/10 Excellent

Homewood Suites by Hilton Tuscaloosa Downtown

The Gatsby - a 1920s Speakeasy abode in the heart of Downtown Tuscaloosa!

8/10 Good

"Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We planned to rent The Gatsby for our family to celebrate graduation together. The space was fabulous, the location sublime but the bedrooms/sleep arrangements were lacking. Frankly you can sleep a maximum of 5 people not the advertised 8. Sleeping on sofa's would be fine for children but not adults who have longer legs. We had two king bedrooms - one without a window so kept the door open - but fabulously comfortable. Only one futon at the property so my son slept there and we arranged for the rest of our party to sleep elsewhere. Great for 5 people, wonderful and as mentioned location and parking was perfect. Thank you for being very responsive and easy to deal with. Next upgrade would be the ceiling tiles but Really enjoyed our stay."
