Room was SPOTLESS and well-appointed, although I recommend having facial tissues available. Check-in was efficient and courteous, even though it was a late arrival time. Trickiest issue is finding the way into the property (the city's problem, not the owners').

Rooms are nothing like what’s advertised. Ordered a king and was put in a full with dirty sheets. Smell of must annd old smoke and felt damp and humid. Owner refused to let us cancel after going in and checking out the room and pulling back the sheets. Accused of “using the room” for ten mins and since we stepped in he wouldn’t allow us to cancel.

The room was small, but very comfortable and perfect for my husband and i on our visit to see his childhood friend that lives in the area. Owners were very friendly and even gave us plastic silverware when our DoorDash forgot to send it. Very nice coffeehouse within walking distance as well.

My first reservation with a Airbnb ended up not being a reliable place to stay, so I booked this hotel while already in Minneapolis. When I arrive the man working the desk tells me that I need a state id to check in, which I did not have because I travel with my passport. He gave me a hard time as a woman by myself until a male coworker showed up with me and his whole attitude changed. Long story short I never ended up checking in to this place because I felt extremely uncomfortable and the man did not sound convincing that I would get back the $500 deposit they were asking for. And on top of that they gave me a hard time canceling my reservation and did not fully refund what I had paid to be there , extremely inconveniencing me because I had to pay for another hotel reservation in full on top of what this place had charged me.
