We stayed for just one night with friends while in town for a concert, and it was perfect for what we needed. Clean, comfortable, and in a convenient location!
Absolutely loved it! We appreciated the open indoor and outdoor space, beautiful decor and all of the amenities of a fully furnished house. It was truly like home away from home. The host were extremely personable, promptly responsive and willing to make accommodations as long as you’re honest. I'd definitely book again.
A very cool place to stay! House was perfect for 8 guest and could easily fit a couple more. Next trip to Birmingham I will be sure to check this place’s availability.
Visited with my family and friends in my hometown for an overnight visit on my way out west. Beautiful house and perfect for a gathering . The hill parking was a little difficult for my elderly relatives but we managed .
This is a beautiful property. It was perfect for our dinner and everyone loved the home. I gave 4 stars for location not because I didn’t like the location, but the street was a little crowded. Other than that, it was perfect!

Thank you for staying with us. Glad you enjoyed the home. Not sure what is busy about the street? We are in a residential area.
Great place to stay. Clean. Safe. Host communicated well. Parking is private. I had no problems. WiFi password is all lowercase despite what is in listed in the app.Couches are couches, not futons from what I could tell. Thankfully my friends slept on them, not me haha.I would stay there again.
