*Best view downtown*, Center of it all
Enjoy the best views of Downtown Laurel in this funky, glam apartment. Gertie Belle’s at Bella Bella is great for a couple or the perfect girls weekend get-a-way. It features one bedroom with 1 king bed and a spacious bathroom, full kitchen and living space. But, our favorite feature in this unit isn’t just the fun original art and bright velvet furnishings but also the huge wall of windows the length of the unit. We promise the best views of all the downtown action. You have use of entire apartment! You have the option of face to face check in or self check in. A code will be sent by Airbnb but Liz or Emily are never far! In the heart ❤️ of downtown!!! Walking distance to everything, great restaurants, shops and all attractions! Most everything is walking distance and you can also drive if you choose! I’m working on getting bikes for rent if you’d like let me know!!

Perfect location in Downtown Laurel
We were on our way to a conference in Florida and took a side trip to add to the list of HGTV show locations. The unit was large, clean and well taken care of. Easy check in and out and good communication with the hosts. Highly recommended this place for anyone going to Laurel.

Mother daughter getaway
The apt was perfectly located to visit shops and restaurants. We loved the decor and comfort of it all. 1.5 baths is in the listing, but there is only 1 full bath. Bedroom was very quiet. Loved all the windows and natural light. Absolutely loved the combination of old/original and new. The exposed brick and steel header were my favorite part of the apartment. Liz was extremely helpful!!

Gertie Belle’s @ Laurel, Ms.
I surprised my wife with a birthday and Mother’s Day trip to Laurel, Ms. This has been a trip she’s been wanting to take and I must say she thoroughly enjoyed the Gertie Belle! We had a great trip and will look to book again in the future. Both Liz and Barclay were very accommodating and always reaching out to make sure we didn’t need anything!! Thanks for all of your help!!

Detail attention
While the stay was good, the attention to detail needs to improve for this site. There was an odor as we entered the room. There was quick communication with the management and they answered quickly. They did come by the next day and found the problem. However they did not let us know until we called them. It was water sitting under the water heater. They did offer for us to stay in another room but we decided to light a candle.
We also had no batteries in the fire alarm in our room and the alarm was open.
The light over the shower was out.
Planter on kitchen island had loose change in it but no plant.
Command hook on front door but no wreath.
Pretty rusted ends of shower curtain rod.
So just little things that we feel could have been dealt with before our stay and would make this property excellent. But location and communication was good just need a few tweaks.

Anniversary Weekend Trip
Perfect get away weekend stay at a wonderful apartment above the downtown area. Great views, great host and walking distance to most everything. The apartment was decorated beautifully and we felt at home right away. Our host was very gracious and attentive. We are looking forward to staying here again.
