Super clean! Appreciated the clean was neutral smelling. (No air freshener or cleaning smells). Bed comfortable! Will be my next stay location for my next visit in the area!
Really enjoyed the stay,. The neighborhood was quiet, and safe. The rooms were warm and nicely decorated. The host was very responsive to our questions
Everything was great about this place! It was super clean & had everything we needed. Great location with quiet neighborhood. The owner was great with communication & ensured we had everything we needed. The place is super cute inside and super comfortable! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone & next time I need to be in the city, I would gladly stay here again! 10/10!!!!
The home is very nicely decorated, with very comfortable furniture, and makes very good use of space. Check-in and interactions with the host were smooth and easy. The neighborhood is charming and close to mass transit (though it can feel a little sketchy at night).

Haha so glad you enjoyed your stay! Can’t wait to host you for the next concert :P
Easy to find and get to, minutes away from so many things to do as well as shopping and in a quiet neighborhood. Host was so kind, helpful, responsive, and really went above and beyond! Home was cozy, had everything we needed, plenty of storage, and good water pressure (big deal for our house!). If you’re big into cooking, the kitchen is pretty snug but has everything you need to cook any meal. It really did have all the charm of an older home but still with modern comforts. We will be having to make trips back to the area several times over the next few years and will absolutely stay here again!
I titled my review as I did because I felt at home. The living dining area was comfortable and pleasant. The kitchen was well stocked and clean with a full sized refrigerator. The bath has a tub shower, with a generous supply of towels and bathing needs. The bathroom was clean and well organized. The beds were comfortable with good bed linens. The heating system was excellent and it was coping with 20 below weather. The wifi, as promised was fast and never dropped out, even with a VPN. The host is amazing. He always answered my messages promptly. I had trouble with door lock and he picked up my phone call while I was leaving a message and stayed on the line as I tried the new code. This is especially impressive because it is very likely the problem was user error, yet he was patient and kind about my little self inflicted problem.The location itself is also wonderful. There are many small local restaurants, I especially like the Korean restaurant on Snelling Avenue. The acclaimed Como Park is nearby, with a small but well run zoo and a conservatory with many exotic and tropical plants and in winter a chance to be very warm. The train can take you to the two downtowns, the Mall of America and the airport. If you are driving there is parking and most destinations will be within a 15 to 30 minute drive.If you travel to St Paul, this might be your home away from home, too.
We were very happy with the stay. Everything was clean, no issues with host. Neighborhood was quiet. Really enjoyed time there. Definitely recommend staying.
My spouse and I stayed at this property in late November for one night. I loved how cozy and quiet the space and neighborhood was. The host was SO nice and commutative!
Very easy to get around. Close to train for Vikings game transportation. Punith was very helpful and well organized. Gave great recommendations. Quick to respond to questions.
