We walked to Kowalski's. It has a Starbucks and great groceries. My husband loved the variety in the bakery. Easy home to get to from the airport and less than 20 miles to Minneapolis for our Nate Bargatze show. A little older home. If you don't like tight, steep stairs for the master bedroom...steer clear. Make sure you hit the check mark after entering your code. We had to stand outside with baggage for a while trying to get in. Busy road out front but you get to park in the back alley where there is no traffic. Lovely stay in a nostalgic part of St. Paul.
There is no central ac upstairs just a window unit and portable ac but did keep the room nice and cool. Great shower in master. Really neat basement with darts which my family enjoyed. Cooked a pizza almost every night to save $$." - Emma, 2025-07-27 Positive aspects: Great location **Host Response:** "Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the home’s convenient location, nostalgic charm, and fun amenities like the darts in the basement.

(5/5 stars) "There's nothing really to say except how it went. Everything was smooth, everything was easy, communication was fabulous and the place was as advertised and then some. Plenty of room for us and plenty close to all the necessities and entertainment we needed. The video game and Lounge downstairs is a beautiful touch and the backyard is a wonderful little tucked away area where you can feel private but still be close to everything. We had many cookouts and play sessions. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out that needed to go to bed at different times due to the kids. And anytime there was a question we got an answer quickly. Highly recommend the house, and area. Thanks so much for having us!!" - Michael, 2024-08-20 Positive aspects: Manager Communication, Size, As Advertised --- ### Review (5/5 stars) "My favorite abnb to stay at.

The house was an old well cared for craftsman. The upstairs stairway has short steps that can be difficult for an adult. The dishwasher was necessarily quite small given the available kitchen cabinet space leading the three of us to need to run it often." - Michael, 2023-09-25 Positive aspects: Great location --- ### Wonderful place!

Thanks, Minnestay!" - Charles, 2023-02-25 Positive aspects: Cleaning, Manager Communication, Great location --- ### Review (5/5 stars) "This is a very clean, comfortable house in a great location. Even though it’s on busy Grand Ave. I heard no traffic noise. I only used the upstairs bedroom and bath and the king bed was extremely comfortable. Kitchen had all I needed. I could walk to Kowalskis a half block away for groceries. There was a single garage where I could park my car which gave me great comfort. There was one snafu at arrival which was quickly taken care of with a text to Minnestay. Huge tvs which I liked. The only recommendation I would make would be to get a few luggage racks at a hotel liquidation store. Otherwise a very pleasant stay." - Berit, 2022-11-26 Positive aspects: Cleaning, Manager Communication, Great location, Well Equipped, Parking, Sleep or Bed --- ### Great Location!

(5/5 stars) "Stayed for the weekend and really enjoyed the house and location. The house is laid out well and had everything we needed and more. Beds were comfortable. Hope to stay here again sometime." - Jane C., 2022-04-10 Positive aspects: Size, Great location, Sleep or Bed --- ### Review (5/5 stars) "This is a fine house! I don't mean 'just fine-fine' I mean 'it's a gem-FINE' - clean, warm, lots of spaces for folks to hang out in ( check out the Lodge ), good market 3 min away, quiet, bright. Off-street parking was handy, and well illuminated at night which was great for our college student's visits.
Access was clearly described and worked. For our odd-ball questions the folks were back at us w/in a few moments.
The kitchen was properly stocked w/tools and supplies and even some spices!
There are some games in the closet, and lots of cozy throw blankets.
We hope to stay again." - Casey, 2022-03-19 Positive aspects: Cleaning, Manager Communication, Size, Well Equipped, Quiet, Parking --- ### Grand Residence (5/5 stars) "Convenient, clean, cozy." - Kathleen H., 2022-03-15 Positive aspects: Cleaning --- ### Review (5/5 stars) "Fantastic house, very convenient to shopping, restaurants, nearby colleges. We loved the house, it’s super clean and well set up. It was too cold to take advantage of the backyard but it looks like it would be lovely. We hope to stay here again." - Mary, 2022-02-27 Positive aspects: Cleaning, Great location --- ### Review (5/5 stars) "Fantastic spot, outstanding location, and a great host! Stayed here with my wife and our toddler daughter and it was perfect. An older house so a few little funky things here and there, but all the modern touches we wanted—including a super comfortable bed! Minutes from everything in St. Paul. Strongly recommend staying here!" - Andrew, 2022-02-21 Positive aspects: Manager Communication, Great location, Sleep or Bed --- ### Cute little house in a great location (5/5 stars) "If you love the character and charm of a 100-year old home, this is a good choice for you. Some of the doorways and walkways were a little tight, but the renovations were well done, especially the second floor main suite. Everything was pretty clean and in good repair, and the owners/managers were easy to work with. The best part of the property was the location. Close proximity to so much of what St Paul and the surrounding area have to offer. We would definitely stay here again!" - Jenny H., 2021-12-20 Positive aspects: Cleaning, Manager Communication, Great location Areas for improvement: Outdated --- ### Review (5/5 stars) "Cute house and great location!" - Melissa, 2021-11-07 Positive aspects: Great location --- ### Review (5/5 stars) "This is a cute house perfect for a family trip.

With Gratitude, Lance from Minnestay" --- ### Charming, convenient Grand Ave. Bungalow! (5/5 stars) "We dropped our daughter off for college at St Thomas and didn't want the hassle of a hotel, parking ramp, etc. We were 5 blocks from her and it was the most relaxing stay we've had in the Cities! We could walk to restaurants, bars, shopping. We walked daily to Kowalski's for groceries to cook/snack-they are THE NICEST people! We walked to Iron Ranger (awesome bar/restaurant with live music and the coolest manager around..Liz V.), and The Colossal Cafe on the corner is great for breakfast and lunch! Clean and cozy with character is this home with plenty of room for my husband and I, both of our daughters (17 and 21) and a boyfriend:) We had everything we needed for cooking, drinking wine, laundry, easy parking in the alley. House was plenty cool because it was really hot this week, and evenings on the back deck with wine were perfect. We will definitely be back as we'll be watching Tommie basketball games all winter! Thanks so much for our new home away from home:)" - heather o., Green Bay, WI, 2021-06-21 Positive aspects: Cleaning, Great location, Well Equipped --- ### Review (5/5 stars) "Nice place. Kitchen is nice but small, if you have multiple people working in the kitchen it's going to be very difficult. The steps to the bedroom upstairs where the king bed is are a little bit awkward." - Michael, 2021-05-31 Positive aspects: Size **Host Response:** "Thank you for staying with us and leaving a review!
