The property was in a great location near Lake Harriet and good resturants. The host had some good suggestions too. It was clean with comfortable beds. The off street parking is important as street parking would be difficult in this neighborhood. The electronic lock was challenging the whole stay but the host did help us. There is no TV - local or movie channels available. You need your own access. Great place that we would stay at again.

We enjoyed the property which was immaculately clean. The location was great, near Lake Harriet. Communication was great and we got help with the new lock (it doesn’t have a mark, press the white squiggles below the numbers).Off street parking in the rear was easy to use. Thanks so much for a good visit!

I was teaching a seminar for psychotherapists, several of whom were coming from out of state. Those folks were able to stay in the space will in town people came in for the day. Everyone was delighted with the space. The location is extremely convenient for lunch breaks and people loved it's closeness to Lake Harriet. The space was very clean.

Sweet spot. Classic elements
We appreciated this spot and cooked a lot of meals here. The kitchen was set up pretty well. No dishwasher.Cutely appointed, but with some variance in furniture, beds. In short walking distance to Lake Harriet, which was very pleasant. Also some cute shops nearby.Host was helpful when we had some trouble with the keypad.

A Great Weekend Stay
The home was very clean and welcoming. The entry code didn't work after several tries, but I contacted the woman listed and she gave me a different code that did work. The home was a great place to spend the weekend -- clean bathroom, comfortable bed, both dresser and closet space, and coffee for the morning. I would certainly stay here on future visits.
