Private room retreat.
Pros:

I love the house. The snacks on the counter were a nice touch. The pastry with the icing was yummy. My husband and I both slept pretty well. Chester and Sugar Mama are my new kitty friends. So sweet. Thank you.

Comfy stay at the Manor
Pros:

Azalea room has super comfy bed and bath, shower was great with good water pressure and hot water. Cats were cool especially Chester, he was a little grumpy sometimes but he liked to hang out with us anyway. Loved the big dining table to play games at.

Beautiful home
Pros:

This was such a lovely property. The hostess made sure we had everything we needed, but was not intrusive. The room had everything imaginable that you would need. No detail was overlooked. The bed was so very comfortable. And the two kitties that visited us were delightful.

Cons:

I.loved everything. The home was beautiful and immaculate, however, the stairs were a little bit hard to navigate, but it certainly wasn't a deal breaker. If I needed to stay in Mobile again, I would not hesitate to stay here. It was so very nice.

Great and comfortable stay!!!!
Pros:

Excellent service. Very comfortable rooms. The bed was a bit too hard but everyone has a different preference for bedding and this is understandable. They had everything we needed. The kitchen was great to use and eat in. The room was very welcoming. Air conditioning worked very well in the extreme heat and humidity.

Cons:

I can't think of anything at all.

Not aware of cats. Couldn’t stay due to an allergy
Cons:

We did not actually stay. We were not aware that there were cats in and around the home and my husband is allergic. We left after we go to our room and noticed. I contacted the owner via text and phone message to let her know that we had to leave are were unable to stay because of the cats. I did ask if we could get a refund. I have never heard back from her at all.

Pros:

Bardzo klimatyczne miejsce. W starym domu. Mieszka się wraz z właścicielami. Dla nas europejczyków dwudniowy pobyt był bardzo ciekawy. Ale raczej dłużej byłoby tam ciężko.
