Great Stay!
The house was clean and updated. We were a little concerned about the area, but we had no problems. The hosts were very prompt when communicating. Overall a great stay! I would come back there if I ever came back to Birmingham.

Nice Interior questionable Exterior.
The home was nice overall. My only issues were the random bugs. They weren't a major problem but if bugs aren't your thing, you might have issues. My toilet seat bolt was broken which caused the seat to be unstable. The toilet paper dispenser was broken and just sitting on the shelf. I didn't like the fact that I had no control of the ac. I messaged the property manager and did not get a response.

The stay was amazing and my Dad said “I’m definitely gonna book here again, I really liked this,” That means a lot cause he is hard to please sometimes. It was just as the pictures and the host stayed connected and responsive every time I sent a message.

Our stay was fair. It was clean when we arrived and the perfect size for my family of 6. What I did not like was the rough area, bugs everywhere outside, bugs in the inside including roaches and ants you will see roach traps all through the house we kilt two of them not trying to take them home, the shower water don’t get hot and you will have chores to do. I don’t want to pay a lot of money for a night or two too clean /take out trash when I pay for cleaning. The owner is very nice and answered all my questions with no problem.

I enjoyed my stay. Renovations make the inside a must see. Don’t judge the book by its cover. As we got closer to the home, the appearance of the neighborhood swayed my wife and son. Before we could look at the inside, she decided to stay at the hotel that my sons baseball team was staying in. I grew up on the other side of town (West End), so I was not disturbed by the appearance of the surrounding area. After getting them checked in, I went back to the home and was pleasantly surprised. The house was neat, clean and stocked with everything I needed to make my stay comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and conveniently located near everything I needed. Definitely recommend staying here.

Work trip
Property was centrally located to everywhere we needed to be in the Birmingham metro. Quiet neighborhood. Property not fully fenced in so if bringing a dog be mindful of that but we were able to put a gate on the side that was not fenced in and it worked perfectly. Air conditioning works great to beat the heat.
