The unit was a great location and 'landing spot' for us. We had plans in the city and in the south & west suburbs. Quick travel to UAB hospital, lots of great local restaurants & close to Red Mountain Park. We really appreciated the convenience & cleanliness of the unit. The host was very quick to respond when we had a question. Restaurant recommendations - #1 The Pita Stop (it's the best!), Big Bad Breakfast, and The Red Pearl Restaurant & Market. Check the free All Trails app for lots of walking & hiking options. Free admission & parking at Red Mountain Park with several trails. We did Grace's Gap Overlook. EXTREMELY well-maintained park & trails!

The accommodation was good especially for the value of the rental.We had an issue checking in due to the accuracy of the address, however the host was very good in supporting us after the fact. We understand that this has now been fully resolved.From here we had great access to the city and perfect for our short stop off.
