Relaxing Escape

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

Much better than a hotel

My husband and I stayed for a long weekend to attend the Iron Bowl. Staying in a home vs a hotel is a game changer. We enjoyed being able to have a kitchen at our disposal and to watch additional games on the home’s large TV that weekend. Beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed. Host was easy to communicate with and helpful. Would stay here again.

PERFECT GETAWAY

Everything was great with the exception of the backyard. It was a bit disorganized and the grill grates were rusted but we purchased a grill brush and just cooked in foil pans. the outside could have been tidied up a bit but everything on the inside was as described and we greatly enjoyed our stay for our daughters graduation! ROLL TIDE!

Great for Game Day

We had a small group who were visiting our kids at U of A. We stayed 4 days. It was a short drive to the stadium. Short drive to take out food. The house has a fun backyard and a large living room where we could all watch games on Sunday.

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.
