Birth-Aversary
My husband and I, his brother and wife stayed her for our Anniversary and my SIL bday. The location was perfect. Cute, cozy and clean. There were lots of little shops and restaurants close by if you didn’t want to venture off too far. The checkin process wasn’t as seamless as I’m used to. There’s a “guest portal” that other communications in but it’s not on the app so you have to dig for door codes and instructions for cleaning. That’s probably not MinneStay’s fault but it should be noted that there should be a guest portal option on the app VRBO. Anyway, we had a good time overall. I’d recommend ☺️

Convenient and quiet neighborhood
House was perfect for us and our two adult kids for our visit to Minneapolis for the Big10 men's basketball tournament. Plenty of room in house, easy to feel at home, quiet location. Easy 3-10 minute walk to start/end of local neighborhood shops and restaurants. Easy <15 min drive into Target Center. Thanks for a great and easy stay!

Only one shower
Lots of positives about the house - we had room for my family of five for a week over the holidays. But take note - the main floor bathroom is TUB ONLY. This is not in the listing anywhere or in the photos so we were pretty surprised to find out that all five of us would be taking turns in one shower every day. For the level of detail provided in the listing otherwise (number of drawers in the bedroom??), this should be clear so you can make an informed choice.
