Great property!!
Our stay was awesome!! I just love the landscaping of the property and the vintage vibe. The French press was a great treat to try. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was the fridge/freezer did not provide ice or water. A simple fix to provide a Brita and some ice trays. And the remotes all had dead batteries. Other than that it was really nice!!

Nice place but can be noisy
Nice location, and very cute apartment! Unique layout and has lots of charm. The shower had hair and the coffee maker wasn’t clean, but the sheets were clean and that is the most important to me. It was noisy - sounded like there were young people working on household projects in the middle of the night. All said, I still likes the place!

Beautiful and great attention to detail!
Property manager was easy to deal with and very prompt! Rental was clean and organized attention to small details was a nice! Back yard was very a blast to hang out in! Very family friendly! Lack of off street parking and thin walls were the only downfalls!

Birmingham Convention
We came to B'ham for a convention downtown. The drive back and forth was short. The apartment was perfect. There were seven of us, so we filled every space, but we managed well. The guys especially appreciated the kitchen and french press.
