Great location

Overall a good visit. The unit is a good home base for exploring Birmingham and there are wonderful restaurants within walking distance. The very comfortable bed was appreciated each evening. The unit needs new towels and bedspread, a few more coffee cups, and a noise machine or fan. Luckily, we're both in good shape, so we were able to get up from the futon, but it's really pretty low to the floor for us retired folks. 😅 The owner is replacing the television in the living room today but it was out while we were there.
