Cute House Stayed for Graduation Weekend
This was a darling house, so well decorated and seemed currently updated. The a/c worked like a charm as sometimes it's hard to keep a house cool during humid Alabama days. We had family in town for my daughter's graduation and it accommodated 5 adults (2 in each of the queen beds and 1 on the couch). The property was advertised as able to sleep 6 but the couch did not pull out or flatten like a futon so that was unfortunate. We wound up bringing an air mattress just in case and we're glad we did. The host was very responsive to my inquiries before actually arriving as I was looking for a place to rent a wheel chair and order a cake which was very helpful. The only other complaint was that the yard wasn't very well maintained, however, during our second day there the landscapers showed up to cut the grass. Also, some of the houses around us were quite run down with tall grass while others were brand new and immaculate. That being said, we had zero issues with safety, no problems with our cars in the street, even though the property had bars on the windows. The kitchen utensils were pretty sparse but we ate out most of the time so not a big deal. Also, the coverlets and throws on the bottom of the beds could have been a little cleaner. Sheets were fine though. Also, we had to purchase new batteries for the tv remotes as they did not work and the PIN for the tv was missing. For the price, this was a very nice stay and I wish the host nothing but continued success.

Flight and motor sport
We were very conveniently located. Everything was safe but if we had known neighborhood we probably would’ve chosen different site. But the house was nice. Rooms clean and everything we needed was provided. We did not cook there. Would return. The museums were both fantastic!

We really enjoyed our stay at the bungalow! The house was clean, and was exactly as shown in the pictures. It is a new listing, so there are a few things that could make it better-such as more trash cans, washer/ dryer, more kitchen supplies, etc. We contacted the Host about these things in hopes to improve the next guest’s experience. Being that we did not know anything about Birmingham or the area we stayed in, we were surprised to see the neighborhood is a little run down and a few surrounding houses appeared to be abandoned or poor living conditions. That being said- We did NOT feel unsafe during our stay, but wanted our review to reflect the overall experience at the Bungalow to help future guests make the best choice for them. Overall we enjoyed our stay and the host was great to work with! They communicated quickly & efficiently. I.e.: We ran out of towels, and they quickly brought some over right after we reached out.
