Good Stay
Overall, it was a good stay. Nice, clean, and just the right size for a couple. However, it lacked the hospitality and provisions I hoped to get. The soap dispenser in the bathroom was empty. I had to search for hand soap, but found a bar soap in a drawer. Also, there was only one roll of toilet paper, no extra found anywhere. This place had a large walk-in closet, but no hangers for your clothes. There was no indoor table (a table would not fit) or TV trays for eating meals.
These and just a few other minor things could make a guest feel more welcome and thought of. Overall it was a nice and quiet stay. Close to downtown and attractions!

Private Apartment in Mobile
This apartment had what appeared to be all new appliances. It was clean as a whistle with a private patio. Internet was efficient. Overall a good place to stay for a couple.
