The Sutton | Modern 2BR Escape
Overview
The Sutton | Modern 2BR Escape is a private unit in a roomy two-story townhome setup in the Hoover area near Bessemer. It’s a smoke-free stay with keyless entry for self check-in, designed around having full apartment-style essentials rather than hotel-style services. The unit uses central air conditioning and heating for year-round comfort.
Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The layout places both bedrooms upstairs, each featuring a memory-foam queen bed. There is a full bathroom upstairs, plus an additional half bath on the main level—useful for groups sharing the space. Because sleeping areas are upstairs, stairs are part of the everyday flow of the unit.
Living Space & Kitchen
Inside, you’ll find a cozy living area and a dining spot that can also function as a workspace. The kitchen is equipped for daily use and includes an oven/stove, along with essentials such as a washer and ironing board for longer stays. Note that a microwave is not provided.
Connectivity, Parking & Arrival
Wi-Fi is included, and free parking is available in a shared lot. Check-in is scheduled for 4 PM, with an optional 2 PM early check-in sometimes available for a fee if the unit is ready. Guests should be aware the listed address points to a main leasing office, and the unit number is provided after verification; GPS may have trouble finding the exact unit.
House Rules & On-site Monitoring
The property is non-smoking and does not allow pets, parties, or big groups. Entry security includes a Ring doorbell camera at the entrance, with no devices in private spaces such as bedrooms or bathrooms. Access requires completing a verification step and selecting either a waiver fee or a refundable deposit option before arrival.
Best for
This stay suits travelers who want a full, apartment-style setup—especially pairs, friends, or small groups who will use the kitchen, washer, and reliable Wi-Fi. It’s also a good fit for guests who prefer independent arrival via keyless self check-in and want free parking for driving to Birmingham and nearby shopping and parks.
Travel tips
Plan to arrive by car: free parking is provided in a shared lot and the home is described as a short drive from downtown Birmingham. The address shown may lead you to a main leasing office, so expect to rely on the unit number and instructions sent after verification and allow extra time in case GPS struggles. Check-in is 4 PM; early check-in around 2 PM may be possible for a fee only if the unit is ready.
