Birmingham trip
Host was very responsive to questions. Check in was rough as keypad did not work. It’s a hassle to have to go through the house to open garage door. The pots and pans were old and need to be replaced. Location is good.

Hello Patti, Thank you for your review. Sorry for the troubles you had with the keypad sometimes smart locks have unforeseen issues. But we were able to get you set up with the key from the lock box we have, and the lock reset itself a couple days later and you guys were able to start utilizing the lock system again. As far as the pots/pans we have new nonstick pots and pans for guests, and I also keep some of my older pans underneath the cabinets for when I am in the area and need to prepare meals.

Spacious and updated.
We enjoyed our stay at this house and would stay again. The mountain brook area is absolutely stunning! This house was pretty updated and had plenty of space for 4 adults and 2 small children. We forgot our pack n play and were pleasantly surprised to find one in the upstairs closet along with a baby gate for the stairs! The WiFi wasn’t working when we arrived and I notified the manager. Communication was good & quick and we had the wifi up and going quickly. The garage is very tight to park two larger vehicles but there is parking on the street as well. We had enough space overall for our 2 vehicles but keep in mind if you have a larger group.

Very comfortable place to stay. Convenient to Samford and great dining options. I would recommend a larger coffee maker for the amount of guests the house can hold but this is not a deal breaker, just a suggestion.

Inconveniences
This was our 2nd time staying in this location. Primarily because of the location. Unfortunately we ran into some inconveniences that could happen to any home owners but it shouldn’t be on the guest expense. Not until I complained about it is when she gave us a refund. Some other things were missing like toilet paper for the upstairs bathroom, only ½ roll for 4 people, no hand soap, no hand towels and no bathroom rugs which made getting out of the shower very challenging and slippery. We were accused of staining a rug on the upstairs bedroom which later came off. The owner was slow in responding our calls or texts. We own a VRBO condo and we are always striving to make our guest have a pleasant stay. We were not unreasonable with what we were asking specially with the rate we were paying. This will be our last time staying here.

Hello Beatriz, There was an issue with the furnace a day before your group came in. I wasn’t able to get the issue resolved beforehand and I thought about canceling the reservation altogether. However, considering your group had made the reservation months in advance and you guys were previous clients I did not want to inconvenience your vacation by canceling the day before. I even went out of my way to let your daughter drop off her luggage from her early flight. I also did everything possible to quickly resolve the issue with minimal disruption to your stay. Again I had no control over timing (7am) repair was the only time I could quickly attain so I went with it. I apologized multiple times, provided a refund for the inconvenience and tried to make things right. However, despite my best efforts nothing was right thereafter. Sorry we were unable to make your stay a fully relaxing stay.

Great property and location in B’ham
This is a great property for access within B’ham. Nice clean townhome with garage parking within Mountain Brook. My family stayed here for a wedding weekend and enjoyed it. Minutes from downtown, Mountain Brook, Vestavia Hills. I recommend this property if you need a house in B’ham.

Clean and well located! Will stay here again.
Wonderful location for quick access to downtown as well as Mountain Brook, Homewood and English Village. Very clean, quiet and spacious. The owner is friendly, attentive and answers questions quickly. Wi-Fi works well and, if it is hot, the AC functions very well! The driveway is steep but manageable. Make sure to pick up some shampoo/conditioner and laundry detergent as these things are not provided. The master does not have a closet to hang clothes but there is a good sized dresser instead. Also, there is a hook on the back of the master door that is suitable for hanging a few items if you have a suit or dresses that need it.

Girls weekend
We had a great time staying here but it wasn’t with out faults. We noticed the upstairs bathroom had no linens, found them still damp in the dryer. Found hair in the bed in one room. Then my lack of cooking skills set off the smoke alarm and woke the whole house of girls. Hot pan and cold butter with pancake batter will create some smoke and you will get a visit from the Birmingham fire department. Felt bad leaving a house in 95+ degrees heat with the thermostat switched off but followed the check out instructions. Located on a very busy street but never had a problem crossing to the overflow parking. Would stay here again if I needed a place with lots of beds for several individuals. But next time I’ll just go to the restaurants a couple of miles away from this locations instead of cooking. :)

Hello Hilary, I feel that this is an unfair rating based on our conversation about you leaving my place in disarray and damages left to my kitchen after the fire/smoke incident . Hope you take better care of the next property you stay at.
