About the host

Host profile image
We are from Ashland, Alabama. We enjoy traveling and seeing new places we've never been before. I love hosting guests and meeting new people from all over.

Why they chose this property

We LOVE our hometown. I used to work inside this building and in 2021 I was given the opportunity to buy the old bank. We put our heart and soul into adding the 2nd floor back in and providing a wonderful place for people to stay right on the town square.

What makes this property unique

I mean, what is not to love about getting to stay in an old bank?
