Welcome to Big Al's Bungalow!
Big Al's Bungalow is a cozy 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom house located just 2.9 miles from Bryant Denny Stadium and just minutes from amazing restaurants and shopping. Staying at Big Al's Bungalow puts you close to the city center, but away enough to have a barrier from the chaos of student housing.

Reviewer Comments:
The house is in an older neighborhood. The house is on the smaller side for 8 to stay, but it worked very well! The interior finish is very well done and the useable space worked awesome. I have used VRBO for many rentals and this one was excellent. It was very clean and nicely done. The tv and other amenities were great. I would stay here again anytime.
