Relaxing and quiet getaway with many amenities. We call our spot MARS because of its reddish brick but even though Mars, the planet, is small, our MARS is no where near small. Large, relaxing and memorable

Great Location!

We came to town for an Alabama football game and this house is only 8 minutes to campus. Also lots of restaurants close by.

Cozy house and a great host!

We were in town to see the University of Alabama and took in a football game. The town is great and Melissa was an awesome host. The house was cozy in a quiet neighborhood a few miles from downtown. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Thank you Melissa.

Don’t stay here

Place was not very clean. Floors were filthy. They need mopped really bad. When you showered the amount of black material that came off your feet was disgusting Towels, bedding, ottoman and floor in one bedroom had what we believed to be feces on them when they were supposed to be clean. Owner took zero responsibility. She implied it came from us and her suggestion was for us to leave.

Graduation stay

I completely enjoyed the stay. The house contained all that I could possibly want with towels, sheets, a hairdryer, coffee in each room, and much more! If I had to return to Tuscaloosa, I would definitely look into the availability of this property again.
