We had been displaced trying to find a place to stay until we could find a more permanent place to call home since April 2024. In October 2024 we began our extended stay motels. Our first experience was Inn Town suites and it was horrible and a nightmare, right before Thanksgiving 2024 we came to Motel 6, A LIFE SAVER!!! Tonya, Barbara,Carolina and all the staff made this place our HOME! They went above and beyond the 2 months we lived here, not a weekend warrior, this was our Home. Forever grateful, they Blessed us beyond words! Highly recommend Tuscaloosa Motel 6, if for just a night or until you get back on your feet! Guardian Earth Angels!!

Very clean, A/C worked well and quiet. The shower pressure & temp worked well. It was a walk in shower, I guess bath tubs will soon be a think of the past in most hotels/motels. The room was clean and very well updated/renovated. They do have some pet friendly rooms but I was in a non-pet non-smoker room that had no signs or smells of any of those things. I was very happy overall. I would upload photos but the ones on the website were super accurate.
It's no big but the management should know that the fridge was a little wobbly. I should mention that my neigbor had a pet room and he mentioned that it was a bit smelly.

We have stayed at this property for 2 months at this point in time, not just a few days here and there,we know the manager and the entire staff by this time. They are dedicated, friendly, and care about their guests. We and all guest are treated with respect by all the staff members, and they work very hard to keep all guest happy and the rooms and property clean and safe for us all. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone who needs just a day, a weekend, or even months to stay while in Tuscaloosa.

The staff was kind and very helpful. The desk clerk went above and beyond, to help our stay be what it should be. The room was decently clean. Overall, it was an "okay" stay.
This was a "GameDay" last minute booking. I was thankful for the availability, but the location was a little bit unnerving. We were told to "not be out at night" and to "securely lock our doors, both when in and out of the room." We will know better how to research locations a little better, next trip. It is NOT an "8.0" rating, though.

We had to evacuate because of hurricane Helene. We were having the hardest time finding a hotel with available rooms that also allows pets when we finally stumbled upon this place. Everyone was so friendly, accommodating and helpful. The room was so clean and comfortable. Overall great experience!

It was conveniently located on McFarland Blvd. There were several restaurants to choose from, some within walking distance. The room was beautiful as they have just finished renovations.
