About this property

Skip the hotel. Stay 4 min from Maxwell, walk to downtown & Civil Rights landmarks, and bring your dog.

Trade hotel hallways for a place you'll actually look forward to coming back to. Four minutes from Maxwell AFB and an easy walk to downtown's restaurants, coffee shops, and Civil Rights landmarks, this is where work ends, the leash comes out, and the day finally slows down. Sleep deeply. Wake up refreshed. Somewhere between the unbeatable location and the effortless stay, you'll understand why so many guests don't just recommend it—they book it again.

We want you to enjoy your stay! It’s likely you won’t see me during your visit, which allows you more privacy and convenience.

However, I am here anytime you need to reach out. If you need anything or have questions, just send me a message and I’ll be quick to respond.

THE SPACE

This recently restored studio studio blends farmhouse-cottage character with modern living. Soft interior finishes, hard flooring, and shaker-style cabinetry create a bright, welcoming retreat. The heart of the home is a fully updated kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, white speckled granite countertops, and everything you need to cook real meals—not just reheat takeout.

One standout: in-unit washer and dryer. Many studios skip this entirely, but longer stays and frequent travelers know how much this matters. Whether you're staying a week for work or ten days exploring the area, laundry happens at your pace, not your schedule's.

The bedroom sleeps two comfortably on a cooling gel memory foam mattress—the kind that actually feels good after a long day. Natural light fills the room. The living area anchors around a Samsung UHD Smart TV for entertainment on your downtime, with streaming apps and Wifi included.

Studio Highlights:
• Fully updated kitchen with granite countertops & stainless steel appliances
• In-unit washer and dryer (rare for studios)
• Cooling gel memory foam mattress for deeper sleep

A few things to know before you book:

PRIMARY GUEST
The guest who books must be at least 21 years old and must stay at the apartment for the entire reservation. The primary guest is responsible for everyone in their group and any visitors.

RENTAL AGREEMENT
Every guest is required to sign a short rental agreement after booking. This is not optional: our property insurance requires a signed agreement for each stay, and our attorneys have advised the same. It covers house rules, check-in and check-out procedures, occupancy limits, and responsibility for damage. It takes about two minutes, and there is no app to download and no account or password to create. We send it after booking along with a brief check-in form, and your access details follow once both are complete.

THE APARTMENT
This studio apartment is one of the units in The Cottages, a small community at the corner of Herron Street and Whitman Street. Other guests may be staying in the neighboring units, but your apartment is private. 119 Whitman is the left door of the left duplex facing Whitman Street.

HOUSE RULES

• Please lock the apartment door each time you leave. It does not lock automatically

DURING YOUR STAY
Our cleaning, maintenance, and guest-support team works hard to make your stay great. Airbnb expects guests to be considerate and respectful of hosts and everyone they meet during a stay, and we ask the same toward our team, vendors, and neighbors. Concerns are always welcome. Verbal abuse, threats, or harassment of anyone on our team will be reported to Airbnb.

Please tell us about any damage as soon as it happens so we can sort it out fairly. Please keep total people in the apartment, including daytime visitors, within the guest limit. Please leave the exterior cameras and the indoor noise monitor connected and uncovered.

Commercial photography or filming is only allowed with our written approval before your stay. Approval requires a commercial general liability policy of at least $1,000,000 naming Dreamline Suites as an additional insured. All house rules, guest limits, and parking rules still apply.

PARKING
Park in the gravel lot at the rear of the property, reachable from either Whitman Street or Herron Street.

PETS
Up to 2 pets (dogs 60 lb or under; no restricted breeds). The $50 pet fee per stay covers all pets, and pets must be added to your reservation. Please crate pets when they're left alone, keep them off beds and furniture, clean up after them, and keep them leashed outdoors. Service animals are always welcome, no fee.

GOOD TO KNOW

TRASH
The green bins are kept out by the road on Whitman Street. Just drop your bags in; nothing needs to be brought back.

EARLY CHECK-IN & LATE CHECKOUT
Available on request when the cleaning schedule allows. $20 per hour, one-hour minimum. Message us and we'll check with our cleaning team.

BEFORE CHECKOUT
Before you head out, please leave used dishes in the kitchen sink or dishwasher, gather used towels in the tub, put trash in the kitchen bin, take your food and belongings, and turn off the lights and A/C. Our cleaning team handles the rest.

All was welcoming and amenities were fine. I would say it just needs a bit of an update on bathroom fixtures but overall it was perfect.

Great place to stay when visiting museums and sites

Clean and updated cottage with fully-supplied kitchen and washer/dryer. Unit was spacious enough for 2 adults, in a quiet neighborhood close to downtown, and bed was very comfortable. Owner was easy to communicate with and offered dining suggestions. Would definitely stay again. Thank you.
