My husband and I stayed here to be closer to the Alabama football game. It was about an hour away easy access to the Interstate. Could use some better furnishings but at the end of the day we really didn’t hang out there but to sleep so it was perfect for what we needed it for. Very easy check in, plenty of places to eat nearby. Would definitely book this again for the next time we make it to a game.
