We enjoy staying here during our Christmas gatherings. The loft is spacious and always spotless, making it feel welcoming and comfortable. Plus, its great location is ideal if you're looking to explore downtown.
Our group attended an event downtown Birmingham. This property was conveniently located. The owner was good to work with. Would definitely recommend.

Liked: Check-in, location, listing accuracy
The unit itself was very nice…our issue was with the AC. It is controlled by the manager/owner. The guests aren’t allowed to move the AC below 70 degrees. We keep our ac at 67 at home. That’s our preference. So I asked for that and was met with rude answers and they basically questioned me and said they’ve never had anyone be hot. If I’d know the guests don’t have control of the AC I would not have stayed there. We had the groom and groomsmen staying there for the wedding and no one slept well because they were warm. No sheets and glistening. :) I mentioned that and was questioned by the manager/owner about my truthfulness. I just wanted to move the air down a couple degrees. It just didn’t need to be this way. Overall the unit was great , except for this one thing. Thanks!

Response from VrboOwner on 26 Apr 2026
Your review was false. We adjusted it lower. We were not rude. We responded timely. You lied about several things. A shame.
Guests have full control to adjust the thermostat; however, there is a set limit that prevents it from going below 70°F. This policy is in place because, in the past, units have been left running at very low temperatures all day, leading to excessive energy waste and units freezing over.
At check-in, the guest requested that the temperature be lowered. I explained that they had just adjusted it and that it would take a little time to reach 70°F. While no guest has previously requested a setting below that, we still accommodated their request immediately and lowered the temperature further to 68°F to ensure their comfort.
Later that evening, around 10:30 PM, the guest contacted us stating they were uncomfortable. LIES. After reviewing lobby footage, we observed that no one had returned to the unit, since they left at 4:09pm. This made the complaint difficult to reconcile. How could anyone be uncomfortable when no one was in the unit?!
Despite our efforts to go above and beyond—including lowering the temperature beyond our standard limit—nothing seemed to satisfy the guests. Additionally, we observed individuals entering and exiting the building wearing SWEATSHIRTS, and even at 4 AM they were dressed in LONG sleeves and PANTS. Given these observations, it is difficult to understand the claim that the unit was uncomfortably warm.
Throughout the entire process, we remained responsive and courteous. The guest had also asked multiple times during the week prior to arrival about early check-in. I advised them to ask on the day of arrival so I could better coordinate with the cleaning schedule. All of their questions were answered promptly, and I was even available late that night when they reached out regarding the air. Nothing pleased her.
We strive to be fair and accommodating, but policies like the thermostat limit exist due to repeated misuse. In this case, we made an exception in an effort to ensure guest comfort, yet the concerns raised do not appear consistent with the facts observed.
Lastly, the unit was left a mess. Trash everywhere. Kitchen cabinets full of food smudges on them. Beer spilt on couch and very sticky. Would not host this guest again.
We had a great stay. The loft was spacious clean and had everything we needed for a great weekend. It was close to numerous restaurants breweries and fun activities
We enjoyed our stay - everything was wonderful! Great place, it was spacious, clean and in a great location. Host communicated well throughout. Definitely recommend!
Condo, service and location were excellent. Just an outstanding experience on VRBO. Can’t see how the downtown hotels can compete with this property. Stayed in a nice hotel in area last year. Nice but didn’t compare.
This condo is in a great location, right downtown. Love the charm, very comfortable beds! Was perfect for our one night stay, on a road trip to the beach. Thank you!!
Some friends and I stayed for the weekend, the loft was within walking distance to all the things we wanted to do! The host was very communicative to ensure a great stay. Highly recommend this property
This was our first time in Birmingham and we were in town for a concert. This was a perfect venue to fit our entire group. We especially liked the big common room for us all to hang out.
