Wonderful stay in Hoover!

We booked a week stay in Hoover to visit friends & check out the area. This condo was perfect for our needs. Very centrally located & comfortable. It was never far from anything we wanted to check out. The owners went above & behind when we carelessly left some items behind to get it back to us. Totally recommend!!

Midweek Stay for Baseball

The property was very close to The Met in a very nice area of town. We checked in after dark and felt safe while the check-in worked seamlessly. The Condo was clean and well furnished and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay as it was easy and quick to get back and forth to the SEC Baseball Tournament. There were also good restaurants nearby from fast food to steak and seafood.

Golf Getaway

Cozy residence with very thoughtful amenities. Quiet, safe and secure property in a lovely rural setting close to many upscale restaurants and close to a very nice state park. Public golf courses in the area are very nice which was the motivation for our visit to Alabama. We had a wonderful experience with this property and the surrounding area.

A Little Gem in a Good Location

My wife and I stayed for a somewhat extended period to visit in the Birmingham area. The unit was well appointed and clean. The neighbors were friendly. The location was very good, for us. We participated in some downtown events, and downtown was only 15 minutes, or so, away. Shopping and restaurants are nearby. Really.....quite nice.
