Great place, super location

Excellent food, perfect southern charm. Will stay there again next time I am in town.

Zebra room was nice and very comfortable. Location was great too!

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A nice place. I stayed in the Zebra room so it was pretty secluded, had my own entrance around back. I could see how the rooms in the main entrance (especially the one on the first floor) could be a little tight. But my room was great. Spacious, comfy, and a good price. I'll be back next time in Birmingham.

A lovely bed and breakfast is not just for honeymooners! I regularly stay at BnB's on business trips. The comfort, food, and good company are unparalleled.

Way better than staying at a hotel. Enjoyed chatting with owner over a very nice breakfast served in formal dining room. Hope to go back some day.

There's a saying, "A house is made with wood and beams, a home is made with love and dreams". This B&B felt like a house. Although the interior and the rooms were decorated and pretty, there was nobody "there". A key taped to the front door with instructions to "lock the house" was my greeting. People stayed there, but we never interacted, except at […] breakfast, if they came down on time. The tables were heavily decorated which made sitting at them cumbersome, and the only other place to sit was the living room which had 2 chairs in it. The owners are friendly, but only "exist" for breakfast. BYOC (bring your own company/companionship/conversation). Read more

One block over from shops and restaurants at Five Points. Oh, and the pumpkin scones at breakfast were a really nice touch.

Nice, quaint Victorian era house renovated to suit a B&B. great, friendly service

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

This is a wonderful Bed & Breakfast. It was much better than any hotel I have stayed at in the downtown area. It is worth the time just to see the house and know its history. The owner is a gracious gentleman and is very interesting to talk to. The breakfast was fantastic and conversation with the other guest was delightful. I will bring my wife next […] time and we can enjoy the hospitality together. Thanks for a great stay. Read more

I travel across the country for business, and I try to stay in a bed and breakfast when I can. This one was such a disappointment. The room and bathroom was dirty. The Internet wouldn't work, and the gentleman owner was rude. Don't waste your money.

My Husband & I stayed overnight while attending a function in town. We had a pleasant experience at breakfast, with other guests in dining room, served on fine china! The home is truely beautiful and filled with delightful surprises everywhere you look! The owners have certainly added treasures, mostly antiques, in every nook and cranny. The only thing […] I didn't expect to be an antique, was our mattress/box springs. The bed was very uncomfortable and sqeaked with the slightest movement! We both had to fight falling into the hole worn in the center of mattress. I did not sleep well and was glad we only booked one night. As a History buff, overall, I was enchanted with this place! I would go again, but would check ahead of time on the bed situation and definitely not book the same room. (Camilla Room) The bathroom for our room was across the hall from room and very inconvenient! Read more

A LOT of work has gone into restoring this fine old house. We were pleased with the location because we were visiting Civil Rights sites. The breakfast was excellent, though very early. Wish we had been able to hang out on the porch longer.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

If you want to stay in a hotel feels like home away. That b&b is the best.

Genuine Expedia guest review

I wish we would had more time there. I loved the atmosphere. Breakfast was nice. We should have had at least a Queen Bed but nice to snuggle in the double that was available. Come there and enjoy!

the Cobb Lane Bed And Breakfast had a terrific location. It was within walking distance to variety of good restaurants, was in a terrific neighborhood, and close to Red Mountain's Vulcan. Interesting fellow guests and a great staff.

My wife and I visited Birmingham for the first time to see the Civil Rights Institute and stayed at this B&B for two nights. It was a nice stay, with the friendly owner, convenient location to many nice restaurants.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

A very charming place, conveniently located. Most interesting and welcoming hosts. Mr. Chaffin is a renewed sculptor, ask to see his portfolio. Very good breakfast, and delicious cookies throughout the day. I would definitely recomment this B&B: only suggestions would be a later breakfast time (7 o'clock is somewhat early when on vacation), and a thermostat […] in the very cold -but otherwise very comfortable -Magnolia Suite. Birmigham is a very interesting town, and the Art Museum is certainly one of the best in the South. Read more

The owners and staff of this B&B were gracious and accomodating to my early arrival. I was allowed to use the parlor and sit on the lovely wrap-around porch. Water, soda and cookies were available. The plush carpet in the bedroom felt wonderful on my sore feet. It was utterly quiet during the night.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The house is beautiful, furnished and decorated comfortably. Upon entering the secure front door, fresh cookies await, cold sodas in the fridge, and the owner gives great suggestions and locations for dinner. The Rose room is so beautiful-made me feel a bit like Scarlet O'Hara! Breakfast was simple and delicious. Very quiet and safe-feeling. It was […] a very pleasant stay! Read more

Very nice people. Only problem is a train that can be heard throughout the night.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Having never stayed in a b&b before, I was a little apprehensive, but this place was great! The owner left keys for us, so it was easy to come and go. The house is beautiful; there is a lot of "stuff" that sort of clutters the place up, and really isn't necessary, but the place is still really nice. The birds of paradise room was not the prettiest of […] decor, but it was comfortable and private enough. Easy walk to tons of bars and restaurants. Read more

I stayed at Cobb Lane B&B for one night while my son was having an overnight visit at Birmingham Southern College. I was met on arrival by one of the B&B owners, Ira. He was very friendly and knowledgable about the surrounding area. He led me to my amazing room and gave me the run down. I had no problem coming and going as I pleased. Restaurants and […] shops were within a couple of blocks walking distance. The kitchen was easily accessible and the owners made sure to have complimentary sodas and water on hand for the guests. The cleanliness of the B&B was amazing and the room I stayed in, (the Camelia) was very warm and inviting. There was a sitting area and also my bed which was quite comfortable and had an abundance of pillows. There is wi-fi there so I easily accessed the internet while in my room. I was able to watch cable tv while in my room as well. A luxury some bed and breakfasts I have stayed in before don't offer. There was not much outside noise from the street that bothered me either it was a very quiet neighborhood, and there is a police precinct right across the road from the inn as well. In the morning I woke up to the smell of an awesome breakfast and coffee being prepared. I felt comfortable enough to go to breakfast in my sweats and sweatshirt. Ira sat down and had breakfast with us and we all talked about our journeys and why we all were in Birmingham. I enjoyed my stay immensly and will be back, if my son plans to attend the college. He plays football so this would be the perfect place to stay on Saturday nights after the football games. Thanks to Sheila and Ira for an amazing visit!! Read more

Super location. Close to UAB and Five points. Hospitality very nice.

This is a great little Bed and Breakfast located in Birmingham, AL. The amenities were fantastic and I would definitely stay there again

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

My husband and I both were very happy with this accommodation. It was very welcoming on arrival. The place has lots of charming characters. The breakfast was very nice. The menu was changed every morning. The coffee was very nice. It was in quiet street. We did not hear any noise at night. The only small problem we thouhgt was too may decorations in […] the bed room. If we go to Birmingham again we will definitely stay in this place. Read more

Good location for nightlife, Too many antiques around, very cluttered. Bedroom ok but no wardrobe to hang clothes, no dresser either, only saying for 2 nights so left clothes in case. Breakfast ok, but had better in other B&B's

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Allt var bra förutom att det var väldigt kallt på rummet. Visserligen fanns det en lite värmefläkt som hjälpte upp situationen.

Genuine Hotels.com guest review

Impression correcte mais nous avions très froid la nuit car la clim était mal réglée et aucun moyen de la couper le boitier était sous clé.

Maison victorienne pleine de charme ou grande maison de poupée aux multiples objets et mobiliers d'époque. Nous avons préféré une chambre plus ladies Chaterley à la chambre Zèbre qui se situe sur l'arriere du bâtiment. Petit déjeuner copieux servi dans de la vaisselle et la salle à manger d'époque. Très bon restaurant pas très loin: chez FONFON, demander […] la serveuse Ukrainienne !!! Elle parle français ... Read more
