The Space: Welcome to Sweet Home Bama Hideaway, your inviting home base in the heart of Tuscaloosa’s Historic District.

The main living area features a cozy fireplace, plush seating, and a Smart TV for family movie nights or catching game highlights. Just a few steps down, the second living room includes a wet bar and another fireplace — perfect for socializing with friends or winding down after a day on campus.
