Summary:
Enjoy the privacy of a detached studio apartment in the heart of midtown Mobile! Our street has a dead end so you're protected from heavy traffic. Walk to Hannon Park behind the Little Sisters of the Poor for a picnic and toss the frisbee, or catch a 10 minute uber ride downtown to see the Mardi Gras parades. The choice is yours!
The Space:
Our studio apartment is nestled above the one car garage in our fenced-in back yard. Feel free to enjoy the back patio off the main house, and if you're the grilling type, take advantage of the Kamado Joe (24 hour notice for grill use required). Note, however, this is a smoke free property (inside and out).
Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the backyard and the entirety of the studio apartment. For long term rentals (>14 days) we can facilitate access to dedicated laundry facilities in the unfinished garage area under the studio.
The Neighborhood:
With a dead end to the south, Hannon Ave. is one of the quietest in all of mid-town. We have street parking available for guests which has never caused a problem, and walking under the 200+ year old oak trees will leave you dreaming of your next visit.
Getting Around:
Walk to Nixon's (the neighborhood watering hole) or Winn Dixie. Otherwise, downtown Mobile is less than a $10 uber ride in peak drive times.
Other Things to Note:
Important Information Before You Book:
We're excited to host you! PLEASE NOTE THAT YOU'LL NEED TO SIGN OUR HOUSE RULES AND SUPPLEMENTAL RENTAL AGREEMENT AFTER BOOKING. SIGNATURES MUST BE RECEIVED WITHIN 24 HOURS OF THE RESERVATION (OR 4 HOURS BEFORE CHECK-IN, WHICHEVER IS EARLIER). If you have any concerns about this, feel free to book a different property. If you review the documents and decide it's not for you, we'll happily cancel your reservation free of charge.
Also note: before you arrive you will be asked to complete guest verification through our third-party health and safety partner, Superhog. This is done to ensure we are keeping up-to-date with short-term rental regulations as well as providing our guests, neighbors, and our properties with important financial protection. Within this verification process you will be given the choice between a refundable security deposit or a non-refundable damage waiver. If you choose to go the non-refundable damage waiver route, the payment is remitted directly to Superhog and is payable in ADDITION to the pricing shown at the time of booking. Superhog will contact you via email and/or text to complete the verification. Please be sure to complete the Superhog verification process prior to arriving at the property so that we can facilitate a quick and easy check-in process.
A few things we kindly ask of our guests:
1) Read through the property description and details in the booking application before you book and check-in.
2) Take a moment to familiarize yourself with the photos of the property.
3) Spend a few minutes to read and understand the House Rules and Rental Agreement - make sure your group gets a copy as well.
4) Keep an eye out for our messages with important instructions and details to make your stay comfortable. A simple "got it" in response is perfect!
If you can commit to these four simple things, we'll go above and beyond to ensure you have a wonderful stay with us. We're confident we can earn your five-star rating under these conditions.
Thank you and we look forward to hosting you!
Interaction with Guests:
You'll have complete privacy for the entirety of your stay, but since we live in the main house on the property full time we'll be a knock away should any urgent needs arise.
