Great experience

For our first Vrbo this was a great experience. Sellers were great. Had to contact them on check in and they were great getting us in. Our family would definitely stay at another from this owner. Adorable house.

Spacious, comfortable home

Four of us stayed here and were quite comfortable. Our other 2 family members came and we had a dinner and it all worked! The place is a totally remodeled older home and was very clean and nicely appointed. The neighborhood is close (1 mile or less) to coffee shops, a Walgreens, grocery store, gas station, restaurant with good breakfasts, and has a safe, family-type neighborhood to walk around in. The host is definitely an experienced host. We were well-supplied and would stay here again when in town. Saw a beautiful hawk in the backyard on the fence which was an extra treat!

Fall Visit

Nice home situated in a great neighborhood within walking distance of coffee shops and Macalester College. Space was nice and fit 8 adult-sized people just fine. The downstairs queen pullout is a little wonky (slopes on either side and mattress pad a bit thin). The full bed pull out was just fine as were all the other beds. The hosts do note in a pamphlet that the showers need 15 minutes in between with more than 4 people. We found that even on the first shower it started running cool after 5-7 minutes. Not a big deal but plan for quick showers with a good bit of time in between. The kitchen was very spacious. We cooked in so we found that the kitchen supplies (no large pot or large serving bowl) made us have to be a bit creative in how we cooked. We ended up buying some large bowls, which we left for future guests. Wouldn’t be an issue if you were cooking for a smaller group or eating out. We did reach out to the hosts for some additional blankets. They did eventually drop off some extras but the communication during the time was sparse. Just know that if you do communicate they are likely working on the issue even if you don’t get a response for hours. We were grateful they were willing to resolve the issue after they got off work. The place was very clean!

Warm, welcoming, and an amazing place

This was an amazing place to stay! Very clean, excellent communication with the owners. The home was so warm and welcoming. There was a ton of space between the main floor, 2nd floor, & the basement. The home is updated and very comfortable. I would highly recommend staying here. The location of the house is very convenient to the interstate, and some amazing local shops & resturants.

Perfect location and really nice neighbors

The home is very nice and cozy with its farmhouse decor. It’s in a really nice neighborhood and the neighbors were very friendly. We did notice the upstairs bedroom tub has a slow drain but it was not enough to make our stay uncomfortable. Definitely a thumbs up home and home owners. Thank you for making our stay a pleasant one.

Family visit

My daughters, granddaughter, and I visited my Aunt in an assisted living home and my cousins, for a long weekend and the home we stayed in was perfect for our needs. It was updated, nicely appointed, and clean and the residential location couldn’t have been any better, only minutes from family members. We will definitely stay here again for our next visit.

St Paul Jewel

Located in a quiet neighborhood - Great coffee, breakfast, pastries close by. Easy access to downtown, 7-8 mins to the Xcel energy center. Did not like that owner didn't provide check-in information until only one hour before check-in time. A bit nerve racking when your traveling, or other people in the group coming in at different times

A pleasant stay but too many rules

Overall, we had a pleasant stay. The property is spacious and as described. BUT, there are too many rules, which made us feel on edge and, frankly, mistrusted. We were in town for a relative's 90th birthday party. The next day, we planned to have a brunch with some extended family. Based on the stated rules at booking, I pre-cleared this with the owners. They asked who would be visiting and I replied that all were adult relatives, except for a toddler and an infant. They gave me the OK. The night before we were leaving, I realized I did not have info on how to get into the home. I reached out to the owners using the VRBO messaging platform. It was late, and I didn't hear back until I was at the airport. They said they would not provide the access code until I confirmed how many people and NAMES staying at the property and the NAMES of the people visiting. Felt like an invasion of privacy, but I felt I had no choice. Once I did this, a multi-page PDF showed up in my email - this was the extended dissertation of the rules. If I didn't sign, no access code, nowhere to stay. Kind of not cool to pull this at the last minute. Then the confirmation email said the access code would be sent right away. It didn't come, so I reached back out. Nothing until 25 minutes before check in time. Once we were in, during our stay, they did reach out a number of times to make sure things were OK - we did appreciate that. Advice - develop some level of trust and reduce the number of rules.

overall

I was surprised by all the questions regarding who is staying and the house and the visitors. The owner wanteted the name and relationship of the people staying at the house andd visiting. Never had to answer those types of questions before and I only usee VRBO to travel. It would have also been great to have a bettert stocked kitchen. The largest pan in the kitchen was 8 inches. For a house that can hold many quests that is a small pan to cook in. Also the linens and blankets were sparse. We couldn't find any blanket for the pull out beds.
