Just what what our family needed for a 4 night stay. Plenty of room for our family of 4. Close proximity to where we needed to go and a safe and quiet neighborhood.

Little hiccup checking in but quickly resolved. Very comfortable and lots of space.

A nice basement apartment in a cute neighborhood. There were plenty of walkable restaurants / shops AND plenty of other neighborhoods were a quick drive or bus ride away. Owners were responsive and polite yet gave us plenty of privacy.

It is a lovely neighborhood, and a beautiful house. The host was helpful. But the listing said it was a short walk to campus, which is why we booked it, but it turned out to be almost a 2 hour walk. Also, despite the two humidifiers, every morning we woke up sopping wet due to how humid it was.

My sister and myself enjoyed our stay for approx 14 days. The property is situated in a beautiful area of Saint Paul and we felt safe. Lovely garden to sit in and enjoy a coffee or meal. We struggled abit with limited natural light coming in and the low ceiling height, but this was expected with being a basement accommodation. If you struggle with mobility I would not recommend staying here as the stairs are awkward to walk down to the basement and you need to duck your head down to avoid hitting your head on the above ceiling. Terrific selection of pots and pans and utensils in the kitchen. Robert was friendly and very prompt with his online communication with us. On our late night overseas arrival to Minneapolis and then to Robert’s, I was impressed that he stayed up to greet us and assisted us to carry our suitcases downstairs. Overall it was a comfortable stay and a reasonable price.. Thanks Robert for your hospitality.

Positives: host very nice and welcoming, easy check in/out instructions, beds were very comfortable, the apartment had everything you need for your stay, nice quiet safe neighborhood. Negatives: This apartment would not be able to accommodate any one over 6ft tall or with any difficulty walking, probably not good for elderly. The ceilings are low and stairs down to apartment old with very low clearance. The apartment could use some furniture and flooring update. I still give it a 5star rating as these things were in other reviews so I knew this when I booked it.

It’s not the nicest place in the world but for the price and use we got out of it, it was perfect. My friends and I made good use of the area outside and even though we were in the basement of a multi unit building I felt we had a good amount of privacy. Like I said not very high end but got the job done

It should be disclosed how low the ceilings are. Are they even up to code? At 5 ft 4” I can touch the ceiling everywhere in this basement unit. The pipes ran even lower giving the feeling of a dark mole hole. I booked a 2 week stay with my daughter to receive medical therapy so we would be spending nearly all our time inside with her recovering. Right away I talked to the owner about concerns of damp musty smell and dark claustrophobic feeling. My daughter complained her nose hurt there and couldn't breathe as well. Owner said he could not even partially refund our entire 2 weeks unless he could rent it out again. We unfortunately spent Sunday night and an hour on the phone with VRBO explaining that the place did not meet my daughters medical needs and trying to get our reservation canceled so it could be re listed. The beds were uncomfortable with a mattress put on one of the twin beds so it couldn't be used. After further back and forth with owner it took until Wednesday afternoon for our reservation to be canceled and re-opended. We moved to another rental Monday afternoon. VRBO agreed paying for 2 weeks was unfair but said it was up to owner to refund. He did not rent it out again and is unwilling to refund anything for 1 night of a 2 week period. I do not recommend staying here
