Pool & Mins to Zoo - Capitol Heights Hideaway

Pool was amazing! Washing machine was also a plus! It’s an older home so don’t expect perfection. AC worked great as well!

The place was very comfortable and the kids loved it!

Great place for our family! Plenty of space and rooms to spread out. The kids enjoyed the pool the first day (The weather got too cold after that.) Kitchen was stocked with the essentials. Especially liked the supplies for laundry and cleaning and the added bonus of the washer and dryer. Beds were comfortable with plenty of pillows. We enjoyed the uniqueness of the house and layout. The hosts were quick to respond to my many questions (as a novice VRBO person). House is close to everything we needed and it was easy to navigate our way through town.,When you first drive toward the house, done areas look a little sketchy, but the house is in a very nice, quiet, quaint neighborhood. Great are for my husband's morning runs. Highly recommend!

Home was very clean nice quiet and neighbors were friendly.

We would stay here again.

Very old home. Some lights did not work. Beds old and limited furniture.

Upon arrival, it was found that the entry code did not work despite being given 4 different codes by customer service. I was finally given the key box code to access a physical key. I was informed by the representative that someone would be there to replace the battery. Approximately 2 days later, I hadn't heard back from customer service, so I contacted customer service because the pad was still not working, the rep said that the company that the pad is linked to has to replace the pad which wouldn't be done until after we check out. The house had a musty order, peeling paint, a broken storm door. There was only one chair (the photos of the house showed two) in the living room and it was broken. The grill in the photo was not the one in the yard. The toilet paper holder in the hall bathroom is coming off the wall and the bottom corner of the wall in that bathroom is crumbling. The door to the master bathroom is off track and wouldn't close completely. We will not be utilizing your property for any future stays. From my perspective, this property cost more than it was worth. Your photos are misleading.

Capitol Heights home worked out great for our stay!

This property helped my family and I out of a jam. They were able to get us in the next day after booking and the only problem we encountered with check in was the wrong code was provided. After a quick phone call, they gave me the updated code and was able to gain entry. Thanks to the rep who was able to help out.The house is an older house that has a few problems (which is totally expected) that aren't too bad. Some noticeable water damage in some of the walls but after an extensive inspection, I didn't find any mold. The guest bathroom off the main dining smelled heavily of bleach and mildew but a good spray of Febreze got rid of it. The towels provided were still damp and smelled of mildew as well, but fortunately, that was nothing the provided washer and dryer couldn't remedy. The AC most definitely works. After experiencing some of the worst outside humidity, the icy cold AC was definitely a breath of fresh air and most welcome. Water temperature/pressure was more than acceptable. I just wish the guest bathroom had a fan but opening the door after a shower dissipated the steam nice and quick.Our family had two young children so the pool was one of the deciding factors in booking the house. The pool was clean enough, just some tiny amounts of sediment in the deep end but nothing that kept us from enjoying the pool to the fullest. The fencelines behind the pool area on the property perimeter definitely need to be redone but nothing that caused us any worry.

Family had to evacuate from hurricane Milton. Our original booking wasn't available due to maintenance, but our host was able to get us into another spot quickly. We were evacuating from hurricane Milton, so it was important for us to find a place we could weather the storm in. The goat was great and very accommodating. weather the storm in

We enjoyed our stay. The home was very neat and tidy. It felt like an old home away from home. It was the perfect distance from downtown and Alabama State University. The host was very nice and always available when we reached out. The check in process was easy and seamless. I would recommend this property.
