We used this property for 10 girls headed to gymnastics nationals! It was clean, in a good area, and communication with the owner was great. Two things to note is there wasn’t a toaster, which would make a great addition for breakfast and the bunk room beds are very squeaky. Overall we had a great experience and recommend this to anyone looking!

Graduation Weekend, Roll Tide

Family from Lexington, Louisville and Atlanta gathered for my granddaughter’s graduation from University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa. The house was cute and comfortable for all of us. There were a couple of kitchen items that had been put away dirty and had to be washed before using, but everything else was fine. My grandson slid on the hill coming in with groceries when it was raining and the porch got a bit muddy. I tried sweeping it off before we left but it really needed to be washed.

It was a good place to stay for our one night trip. The house is in a slightly questionable area of town. We passed several dilapidated houses on the way, a block or two away. We were all thinking "where are we staying tonight??". There's a house with a missing roof that you can see from the front of this house. It's questionable. But everyone was safe, our cars were fine, didn't get broken into. The place was not very clean. I don't think I have super high standards of cleanliness, per say, but I do expect it to be vacuumed and floors washed. I kept my shoes on bc it was so nasty. My nephew had his shoes and socks off, and his feet were black by bedtime, and we got there at 6 pm. The fan in the bedroom made a constant clicking sound. Guess you could use that as "white noise". Bed not super comfortable but we slept ok-ish. We did really enjoy the bunk room- slept all the kids, plus some young adults just fine.It's in downtown. It's remodeled but not great quality... ok for a rental. It's like putting "lipstick on a pig". Ok for rentals, definitely not ok if you lived there. Just be prepared to not have a 5* hotel like experience.

Hoover Baseball Tournament/Two Families

A great place to stay while visiting the Birmingham/Hoover area. The house was AMAZING! It was absolutely the most spotless place we’ve ever stayed and we travel a lot, it was so clean and beautifully decorated throughout. The “transitioning neighborhood” could seem a little bad/scary at first to some, but we had absolutely NO issues coming and going early in the morning and late at night safely. We never felt like we were in danger or afraid. The host was superb at responding to any questions very quickly. We were welcomed with snacks and complimentary waters to start our stay along with toiletry items in both bathrooms. The outside game room building, the downstairs game room area with the 4th bedroom were so convenient for the teenagers and adults in our families. Our only concern upon arrival and during our stay was parking. The garage was only big enough for 1 CAR, so we did have to squeeze 1 pick-up truck, & 1 mid-size SUV into the driveway since parking on the street was extremely tight, and we worried about parking vehicles there without the possibility of being hit. We made the parking work and it wasn’t a big deal to us. We would would absolutely without a doubt stay here again, thank you to Tiffany for making our visit to Alabama so nice and accommodating at all times.Tiffany was an absolute pleasure to work with the entire time up until the very end by allowing us a late check-out to make our departure day more convenient for us.
