Room smelled of smoking. Table sticky and couldn’t get it cleaned. Bath tub stained with black marks. Bed mattress was rounded on edge so had to sleep dead center not to fall off. Refrigerator wasn’t cleaned.

I stayed here for Alabama LSU weekend. It was a great experience, my room was clean, and the staff was extremely helpful. For those looking to save money on gameday weekends, I would suggest Bel Aire to anyone.

The price was very low and with good reason. The bed was reasonably comfortable, the room was musty and the bathroom from the 1950s and in poor condition. The neighborhood felt relatively safe but I would not recommend this motel.
