Great historic home close to downtown!

Home is a classic with lots of charm, private fenced backyard, and perfect for getting together near downtown Mobile. Check in and out is simple and the communication with the owner is good. We were able to walk to the Mardi Gras parades, a grocery store, and some nearby restaurants without needing a car. Would stay here again.

Beautiful House!

The house was exactly as described—a beautiful historic home—and we enjoyed staying there. I am from Mobile and lived in Spanish Fort for a long time, and the house is in a great location for traveling to both cities. I would stay there again!

Please Feed Stevie

Booking and the check in were a breeze. The quaint house was just too cute for words. Modestly decorated, but that’s fine too. The host was so kind as to leave waters, snacks, coffee, and many personal care items in case you need them. That was such a thoughtful gesture. The best part of the stay was Stevie. I assume she is the house cat because she knew her way inside. She never left the property. She was so cute and so sweet and likely pregnant 😟. We bought her food and blankets because it’s cold outside. Please feed Stevie. The most disappointing feature that I have to tell you about or it just wouldn’t be right. There is no heating or cooling downstairs. I called the host to ask about heating the downstairs and he told me “it will warm up in a minute or so because the heat upstairs will warm it.” We all know that heat rises and the only ductwork is in the attic. Nothing was going to warm the downstairs. We essentially had to spend all the time here in the bedroom. That was a bummer. I would say this place will be great when you can hit that sweet spot in temperature but there is no sweet spot in the south. It’s either hot, cold, or cold in the mornings and hot during the day. Anyway, I did enjoy the house, I wish we had been able to use the downstairs. I’m not sure if I’d ever stay there again.

The house is beautiful. It is walking distance to downtown and great coffee shops. The kitchen and home has everything you need. It is really nice to be able to park right behind the house and behind a gate. Would stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
The stay was excellent. It was an older historic home that had been nicely modernized and renovated while maintaining its charm. It had a nice Mardi Gras vibe as well. The host made snack bags for us along with coffee selections giving it all the nice touches. The house was extremely clean and accessible to nearby areas for food, etc. We were there to visit the University of South Alabama so it was very accessible for us as well. We even went to Dauphin Island for a day while there, Gulf Shores for a day, as well as Fairhope for a day. We loved the accessibility to all of those areas and the listing was very affordable. We had a great time! The host even accommodated an early check in since we arrived earlier than expected.

Great stay in Mobile

The property was exactly as advertised - cozy, historic, two bedroom home only minutes from downtown Mobile. Perfect spot to access a variety of activities in the greater Mobile area and walkable to restaurants on Dauphin Street. Well stocked kitchen was used often during our 6 night stay. The whole check-in/communication process was seamless. I would definitely stay there again when in the area.
