Definitely will book Again
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.

Cute & Quiet
I had an enjoyable stay and everybody was happy with it.
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.

Cozy cottage
This trip was to celebrate my aunt's 88th birthday. Jonathan provided an excellent place for us to visit, relax and celebrate!
The property was clean. The drive way is not suitable for all vehicles so we had to use street parking.

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.

Very Unique Space
First off the property was recently rehabbed with fresh paint and fixtures. Ample space for the size of our group(2 elderly women, my husband and grandchild) We were pleased aesthetically with the unit but my husband became more concerned with the HVAC. There was a constant permeated smell reminiscent of mold. Although we didn’t see mold none the less he knows what it smells like. There is only one entrance to the unit(not sure if that’s legal) so in an emergency consider climbing out the window to safety. Although I would say that we have stayed in worst units but this is not our fav and will pass on it in the future.

Nice place
The property was good condition, parking is a little tight but good . We couldn’t find specific details on check out on linens and towels… were going to put them in washer but it had been closed for awhile and has lots of mildew in it and smells really bad so we left them in front of the washer. Thank you again would recommend any one to stay
