Guest rooms feature fireplaces, sitting areas, and complimentary WiFi throughout. The property sits 0.5 miles from Ladd-Peebles Memorial Stadium and 1 mile from the Bragg-Mitchell Mansion.

Pros

Houses over 1000 artifacts interpreting life in Mobile between 1830 and 1900

Provides current guides to neighborhood restaurants with directions

“In my opinion, this Victorian-era house stands out for its carefully curated antique decor and convenient location near Mobile's attractions; the architecture and storytelling create a particularly intimate atmosphere. The homemade breakfast and pet-friendly policy add to its appeal, setting it apart from typical accommodations. It's a comfortable, historically rich choice.”
