We cannot overstate how happy we were with this space, its location, and most of all the hosts. We needed a place to stay close to down town Mobile for the Christmas holidays that allowed dogs and was quiet: mission accomplished! The spacious studio covers all the bases: easy to access, private, conveniently located, comfortable, well-designed and equipped, very clean, and the property was very open, beautifully tended by thoughtful, helpful, and conscientious hosts. This property is a reminder of the platform's (Vrbo's) original promise. We look forward to returning!
Great room for over night stay.
We love this property. This was my second time booking a room at this location. The owners try to think of anything you may need. Everything looks and SMELLS clean. I cannot say enough good things. Definitely my go to place to stay when I visit Grand Bay.
I wanted to love this stay! Super cute property. However, it went south shortly after checking in. The room was not clean, trash on the floor, sand on the bathroom counter, etc. The sofa bed was a small futon. No way to sleep 2 on it comfortably so the sleeps 4 is inaccurate. I contacted the property host and was told we would be refunded $50. One week later and that has still not shown up. There was also no bedding, pillows, blankets, for the futon. So again, advertised for 4 but definitely set up for 2 (bed for 2, 2 coffee pods, 2 water bottles, 2 washcloths, etc). Furthermore, when we received the confirmation email that stated a cleaning fee I inquired about that and was told we would not incur any further charges, that the fee was included in the initial payment. Upon checkout, the following day we had an extra charge on our card. The cleaning fee. The fee we were told we had ALREADY paid. So, if there are only 2 of you and you don't mind additional fees being charged after being told you would not have any, this is a cute little place. Not near enough parking, either. People were parked along the driveway and in the grass, which was muddy and nasty because it was raining. Unfortunately, it was an absolute disappointment to us in every way. We could have paid the same amount at a hotel with a breakfast and enough beds for everyone.
We were in town for a wedding that was only 5 miles from the place. It is very nice and the price was even better. I'll be staying here again when I visit my friend again.
Property was as described on VRBO, room was clean, furnishings were new. Check-in process was simple. Overall a great experience.
