This is a fantastically renovated property with every detail perfectly executed. Everything you need for visit to the area. About a 20 min walk to downtown Decatur and a 10 min drive to Emory. We’ll definitely book again.

Great place to stay
My fiancé and I, along with the other couple who stayed really enjoyed our stay. Perfect place for 4 people. The home was very clean and comfortable. The host were great with providing us detailed information regarding our stay. Neighborhood is quiet and kept us away from traffic as we traveled to and from the ATL area. The one thing I’d mention is the patio set was worn,although I could tell it was due to just normal wear from the weather so couldn’t sit out and enjoy the beautiful firepit but I will definitely stay here again for sure!!

College friends attending funeral
We were a bit loud the first night on the front porch. Our mistake! We weren’t thinking clearly as we have been preparing for a funeral and emotions were all over the place. We stayed up a bit late drinking wine on the front porch. Would’ve greatly appreciated the details of checkin prior to day of. I was flying in and since late check in I decided I could only take a carryon because I wasn’t sure if I would be wandering around Decatur with a rolling bag for a couple of hours. Nike was super friendly and tried to get WiFi fixed while we were there but we were too busy to accommodate person to come back later as we were not going to be home. Not sure if the issue got fixed while we stayed there but there was an attempt. No wifi was no big deal for two nights. Thank you for sharing your little cottage.ac unit was loud every time it kicked on if you slept in back room. Other than that cute little bungalow. Coffee was fabulous and the little snack with water bottles was appreciated!

It was great!
The house is very cute and in a lovely neighborhood convenient to everything we wanted to do in Atlanta. Everything has been perfectly restored with great attention to detail. There is a patio with a grill and fire pit table which was perfect for sitting outside in the evenings. The hosts were wonderful, and so accommodating when we wanted to add another night to our stay.

Perfect at Every Measurement! 10 Stars!
My wife and I were in town for a not-so-fun week of medical treatments and needed a location that was both quite, clean, close to everything, and fully furnished with all the necessities. The Backstage Gallery House exceeded our expectations. From the comfortable beds, to the large tub perfect for end-of-day Epson salt baths; everything was perfect. A peaceful neighborhood, thoughtful extras, and the nice Nespresso machine were just icing on the cake. The hosts, Kevin and Nike were very responsive even though we never had any need to contact them. They provided clear and easy check-in information and their contact info for any additional needs we might encounter. We hope this to be the last of our clinic visits, but if we ever do have to return to Decatur, The Backstage Gallery House will be our first choice and safe haven preference.

Girls weekend
The house has a great layout and is so cozy- the perfect roommate style. We especially enjoyed the back deck/ fire pit and the coffee/ frother! Just an fyi- when we arrived we notice that the back door has a loose/crooked screw and the wood was split just a little bit. The lock still works well but probably needs to be looked at. Thank you for a wonderful weekend in you cozy home! Shannon

Perfect weekend getaway!
This was the perfect home for our trip. The details, from the rocking chairs on the screened in porch to the welcome snack and coffee selections were all so thoughtful. The location was easily accessible to public transportation and getting to/from downtown Decatur was so easy. We stayed for the Tour Championship which was a quick Uber ride away at East Lake. We would absolutely return and highly recommend!!

Perfect!
We all had a great stay in a the perfect area. The property is well kept and modern and the Hostess, Nike, maintained great communication throughout our stay. Was a little worried about street parking, (my 89 yo, limited mobility father was with us) but it was not an issue. We never had to park more than three carlengths from the front door. Location was perfect for access to everywhwere we had planned to go. (Emory, Decatur, Inman Park and Georgia Tech) The neighborhood was peaceful and the neighbors were friendly. Would happily stay again, hopefully in the cooler months so we could use the great back porch.

We were in the area for a conference in downtown ATL. Our experience at the Backstage Gallery House was exceptional! Kevin and Nike were wonderful hosts and the house was clean, exactly as pictured, and conveniently located.
