"Great experience"

"The house is in a nice new neighborhood. We stayed there for our son’s graduation from the University of Alabama and it was a great place to stay with our entire family vs. a hotel. Derrick, the owner, was very responsive with any questions we had. If we have any future stays in T town we will definitely stay here again. "

"Owne and ataff verry friendly"

"As a business owners, I dont leave bad reviews because usually a company at least tries. I have waited over 2 weeks to leave this review, however, to see if Evolve would refund me. They havent. The safety and cleanliness issues need no explanation if you look at the photos. This place was gross, smelly, and unsafe. It had improperly placed fire extinguishers, dirty cabinets, bad sheetrock and peeling up flooring, faulty wiring/ lights and an unphotographed bullet hole in a door. The fence that they associate with safety was delapidated and I told them that their security system was no deterrant in that bad neighborhood. We couldnt leave our trucks, loaded with equipment, there for fear of theft. I called the company, evolve, to tell them that the place was unsafe, and unsanitary and that we were leaving. They said okay and opened a case *to see what the property owner would do about it*. I have provided photos and explained my complaints but they defend the property owner and blame us for a fallen door (that almost fell on my carpenter associate who only tried to open it). This fight has been going on for over 2 weeks and they claim to be waiting on proof from the property owner. I'm getting impatient and am really upset that the company upholds NONE of its satisfaction garantees. "

"This is no 5 star hotel BUT it was clean and in a convenient location. The front desk lady Audrey was very pleasant to talk to in the morning. I wish I could remember the girl name, but she has lots of tattoos and cleans the rooms. She really took the time out to make sure I was in a room near my sister and that my room was clean and had fresh towels. She told me to wait 15-20 minutes and was done in 10 minutes! And told me to make sure I let her know if there are any issues. That made me feel like she took pride in her work and appreciated me as a customer. I'm not going to lie, I was a little skeptical at first when I pulled up because this isn't a "really nice" hotel. But it was clean and staff was friendly. King size bed was comfy too!"

"Charming in every way"

"We had family from Texas, Florida and Missouri travel to Alabama for a short stay in late March. The house was spotless, the beds were sooooo comfortable and the fenced in yard was perfect for our labs to run around after being in the car for so long. The large kitchen was perfect for all of us to contribute to the meals and the large dining room table served double duty as our game table. The kitchen was well-stocked with spices and cooking spray and all of the showers included shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The one room, one bathroom cabin in the barn was a perfect place for our loud snorer! The only thing to note is that the room with twin beds is small and would be better for children and not two single adults. We also had the opportunity to hike a little behind the property to explore the creek and all the things nature had to offer. The bridge walkways and chairs throughout were a nice touch! The yard was well-kept and there was lots of room for a bocce ball game, cornhole and even a pickleball tournament where we set up our net. Some in our party went to an Alabama baseball game while others explored downtown Tuscaloosa. Both were about a 20 minute drive from the rental. If we ever plan a trip to the area again, we will definitely stay here again! Thank you for providing this great home away from home!! We really enjoyed our stay. "
