Hassinger Daniels Guest House

Amazingly rich in. History

Very nice stay - very clean. Never saw any staff so can’t review that. Parking was minimal and cramped - luckily we ubered where we needed to go so that we wouldn’t lose our spot. Check-in is simply using door code given per email… very simple and easy. The room is basically that, a room big enough for bed and side tables and dresser. Our room’s air conditioning was not working as well as the rest of the house so that was a little uncomfortable sleeping in a room that was 10 degrees warmer than the hallway outside and the rest of the house in the middle of August. Even with all that, I would still stay here again if we came to Birmingham needing to stay in that area for convenience .

I'm glad that I read reviews before booking so I knew (more or less) what to expect. We were traveling for work and really just needed a couple of beds and a bathroom that was reasonably private, comfortable, and affordable for a night. There was a clear glass window from the bathroom to the bedroom space which was a bit awkward traveling with work associates, but there were a couple of "public" bathrooms in the mansion that we were able to use as needed. There is no front desk or staff around which was fine with us. We actually happened to be the only guests the night we stayed which made the experience a little extra creepy and cool. Though the Bed & Breakfast days of this house are a thing of the past, there were a lot of interesting artifacts, articles, and random historic information throughout the house that enhanced our brief stay. Despite being in town on a sleepy Monday night, we found things to do within walking distance of the home (shout-out to The Nick for drinks, entertainment, and pool, and Walter's delicious food) and fully enjoyed our one night in Birmingham. We found the Hassinger Daniels Guest House very accommodating and affordable for our needs - price for our double occupancy room was $20 less than the least expensive hotel for the same night and far more interesting and enjoyable. :) We love a well-appointed historic bed & breakfast when we're looking for that extra love and attention, but this stripped down version was excellent, too! :)
