Baseball Tournament
My son and I stayed here during a recent PG Baseball Tournament at Hoover Met Stadium. The condo was conveniently located to the stadium, restaurants, and shopping. Stocked kitchen and comfortable beds and family room. The host was very friendly and responded quickly to questions. We will definitely stay here again should baseball bring us back to Hoover!

Model accommodations
This home delivered even more than we could have expected! The place looked like a model home. Furnishings were both beautiful and comfortable. It was like a home away from home in all areas. Additionally, it was so clean. We look forward to visiting Hoover next May and hope to stay here again. Karin was the perfect host for our stay!

Niçe and comfortably condo
We came over from UK for a 3 wk stay to visit our Son which was very convenient for us as his apartment was close by. Communication was good between Karin and ourselves she was very responsive from the start to the finish of our stay. Due to our later flight Karin kindly allowed a later check out which was very helpful. The property was lovely and clean and comfortable and had all we needed. We were however disappointed with some of the listings on the virbo app regarding out door facilities which were not infact available. Karin was quick to apologise and compensate us which we appreciated. Karin has now removed those facilities from the app. All in all our trip was very enjoyable and we would use this condo again. Thank you Karin

My wife absolutely loved the accommodations. and little added decorative touches that made it feel like our home and not a rental. Clean, quiet, safe and very comfortable in a beautiful wooded area yet convenient to great golf and great restaurants. Thank you Karin for being a great host and providing a great experience.

Fabulous Condo
This condo was absolutely perfect for my friend and me for a short girls stay of 3 days/2 nights. Easy to locate, only 3 steps down to the condo door, parking right in front of the 3 steps. My friend uses a cane or walker, she had no trouble with the steps and the condo is all one level. Large bedroom with a full sized bed and a twin rollaway tucked into the large walk in closet. A full bath inside the master bedroom with a tub/shower combination, also a hall half bath. Fully appointed kitchen, Karin also left some bottled waters and some breakfast snacks which were so appreciated! There is a full size washer and dryer, a perfect family room and dining area - FR has a large TV and fireplace. Also an outdoor patio. The whole place is beautifully decorated! We felt very safe and the complex is clean and quiet. Very close to anything you are doing or need in Hoover or the 280 area. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back!
