Anyone ever stayed at Motel 6 in Tuscaloosa?

I was just able to book room there for Bama game but have since read reviews that make this place seem pretty bad. Anyone know anything about it or stayed here before? Is it in the ghetto? Any info is appreciated.

Stayed there once. Walked out my room to several gunshots. Good luck with your stay there!

Pretty good if you like cheap crack whores.

It's a Motel 6. Even brand new they come with a side of semen stain...

It's not bad. Stayed there the past 3 times I think. This past time they redid the floors...wood laminate throughout, even the damn bathrooms (which is pretty odd).
It's just a place to crash and shower, don't sweat it!

nothing can be as bad as their Moon Winx Inn

Nope, But I can tell you this. DO NOT stay at the knight's inn in Opelika.

definitely wouldn't recommend it! if it's the one on mcFarland past skyland (which is the only one i can think of) It's not in an ideal location for travel to the stadium or a good area. There are a lot of hotels close to the interstate that are much nicer on McFarland. They aren't much closer to campus but it is a better area and closer to restaurants, the mall, etc. There are also some on 15th Street to look at (definitely a Holiday Inn-nice) which are in a better area and A LOT closer to campus! Hope this helps!

I think you answered your own question, bud. Dont take a female, preferably a muscular friend, and brush up on your drug lingo and ebonics, and you should do fine.

Me and my brother stayed there two years ago and let me tell you, the place is the epitome of a chit hole. We were gonna stay the night after the game also but my brother wanted to drive all the way back home instead.
If you don't mind spiders on your pillow or roaches this is the place for you.
