Birmingham area, including:
Old Harbin Hotel
Built in 1923, Old Harbin Hotel was once the talk of Nauvoo, AL, a small town located approximately 60 miles northwest of Birmingham. When it opened its doors, it featured 76 electric lights—quite impressive for its time. Owners Gene and Earlene McDaniel originally ran a grocery and hardware store on the ground floor, then bought the building and transformed it into a bed-and-breakfast. Added to the Alabama Landmark register in 1990, the two-story brick building still boasts its original pine walls and room numbers. The décor includes period antiques, photographs and newspaper clippings from the 1920s and '30s, enhancing the feeling of stepping back in time. The seven guest rooms each have private baths; four are en suite. Skylights accent the four center rooms.
