What a great place!

Awesome accommodations and location. We pretty much lived out on the patio overlooking the river. Having restaurants like River and Another Broken Egg down below made it convenient as well. We would definitely stay here again!

Graduation Weekend

The property exceeded our expectations! Everything was easy and convenient for our daughter's graduation weekend. We loved putting our name in at the River restaurant and then hanging out in the apartment for the 2 hour wait. So relaxing!

Great BAMA Grad stay

This condo was clean, spacious and had everything needed for a wonderful relaxing stay for our family during my son’s graduation from UA. This location on the Riverwalk was great and the patio set up overlooking the Black Warrior River was perfect for spending quality family time. The only suggestion I have is 3rd bedroom should have a real bed as futon in there was not comfortable. Our host was wonderful and I highly recommend this property.

great place

Had a great time. Location was great and the restaurants right below were convenient. Great condo with the only drawback being the bed in the 3rd bedroom. Very uncomfortable to where my son ended up sleeping on the couch. Other than that - the place was great!
