We had a great weekend visiting Mobile and the location of this home was perfect for what we were looking to do. Downtown was in walking distance and the neighborhood bar/grill was just a block away. The house was clean and well equipped which is always nice! The host was easy to communicate with and certainly accommodating. We would definitely stay there again!
