Wonderful

For our purposes, the property's location uas excellent with easy access to shopping and area points of interest by road, and a short and pleasant walk to local stores. The property itself is comfortably furnished, large enough to not seem cramped for an extended stay, and priced reasonably.
Kind people, but the basement apartment has low ceilings, we all hit our heads a few times. We could only run one of the two portable air-conditioning units without the landlord having to come and reset the power.

Enjoyed our return stay
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.
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.

Inaccurate Listing and Humid Basement
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

Very low ceilings; Claustrophobic, Inadequate
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
I was on a Busines trip over a month and stay at St.Anthony Park Basement 2 Bedroom. The place has everything you need, 5 min walk have a grocery store, post office, restaurants, library, park etc. The apartment is cozy, the host is friendly and has all facilities you need for your stay. Definitely I'll return again and use St.Anthony Park Basement 2 Bedroom for my stay.
The property was as cozy, clean and convenient as advertised. Right near a host of great restaurants in a quiet and safe neighborhood. For anyone who has business at either nearby Luther Seminary or the University of Minnesota the location is "perfect"!
the location of this house is perfect if you’re planning on going to the state fair and dont want to drive. it’s less than 2 miles away and the walk is t bad at all. also there are plants of places to go for coffee, a bite to eat, or just hang out. overall great stay!
We stayed for the State Fair, this property worked out well for us. We were able to walk to the State Fair and back without difficulty.
Property as pictured and described, comfortable beds and plenty of room for us.
Located in a nice quiet residential neighborhood
Very friendly owner
Convenient location to visit university of Minnesota
Recommend owner provide lock box instructions in check in information since we almost missed you
In the middle of day to over night, it gets super hot and not much air circulation. Even though, there are 2 probable air conditioner and a humidifier. Owner said that we can only run one of the 3 mechine. Therefore the house get super hot and it gets difficult to sleep at night when the temperature is above 70 degree. Other than that, it’s a nice spot.
This is my second time staying here, but it’s a great space with easy access to the businesses on Como Street and Luther Seminary. Place was neat, hosts were friendly, hope to rent again next time I’m in the twin cities.

This was a very comfortable space
There were a lot of amenities for this property tucked away in a pleasant neighborhood. The beds were very comfortable and there was a lot of room to relax along with the outside accommodations.
We enjoyed the cozy accommodations, easy check-in/check-out for our short stay. It was easily accessible to shops, restaurants, coffee shops and a small grocery as well. It had everything we needed and would highly recommend to others.
Very pleasant place. Great area! Attentive hosts. I would recommend this reasonably priced option!
