Great place to lay your head down and rest. The apartment is very cute with an eclectic mix of decor. Beds are nice and comfy and the balcony patio allows you to step outside for a breath of fresh air without having to leave the apartment.

A nice walk thru history

I'm a history buff. So I was pleasantly surprised to see this really nice small apartment. The art and decorations were really cool. I hadn't seen a rotary phone in years. It was comfortable, safe, clean, and conveniently located. Just bring ear buds because of traffic noise and there are stairs. I have no complaints though and Alexander was kind and helpful.

A good deal

The pictures do this place no justice. The old antique feel is very cute and the beds are super comfortable. The please is a good deal overall. I would like to add little things like plastic ware ,body wash, a clothes hamper for dirty towels would’ve been nice . But for the price I can’t complain.

Scary location

We got there and we unloaded and inside was pretty nice except electric cords everywhere We got there at night. We went out to eat and next door there was a sign that said something about the neighborhood and it really scarred us. So noisy and scary that we got up and left and went to Prattville and stayed in a hotel. We will never recommend or stay there again. No communication either. Of course no refund. We were supposed to stay 2 nights. We should have gotten 1 night refund if they were honest people in the business.

Just Okay

home decor is very lovely, the aesthetics is very unique and charming. However, I did have major concern during my stay. The home was not clean. 1. I killed a roach and a couple of bugs in the main bedroom. 2. There was a stain and dog hair on the sheets in the main bedroom. 3. There was debris on the floor all over the home. 4. There was dog hair all over the living. 5. There was dust build up all over the home. The dust and dog hair really affected my allergies. 6. The remotes and floor were sticky. 7. There was used bloody alcohol pad on a piece of furniture.

It was central to all the Montgomery locations I was visiting, short drive times.Host had no control but city was paving the street there and sometimes had to deal with one lane trafic during the day. At night no problem, again host had no control of this. Enjoyed my stay and would stay again.

The area was a little shady looking at first glance,the shirtless man in the front definitely didn't help. Some of the decor of the unit was questionable, borderline offensive if you're of African decent. Overall it was convenient location, and the host had great communication.

I was very pleased by my stay. The place was incredibly clean. The layout was very nice with all sorts of collectables and such that added to the ambiance. Kitchen was very well equipped. The bath towels were not some cheap KMart models. Heck they were thicker than I've found in some Hotels. Strongly recommend a stay.

Quick stay

Came for the weekend. For some reason the water in the bathroom gave us issues and would turn off. A call to the owner and a repair man came but it required manual on/off the rest of the stay.
