The retreat on Randolph was an A+ experience in every way. The apartment is perfectly equipped with everything we needed and more. The appliances seemed brand new and include a washer and dryer. The apartment is laid out in a way that is perfect for two people who need separate spaces -- a little nook with desk and sofa behind the kitchen and another TV nook in front. Eileen has furnished this special space with designer details. Books about designers, artists, and architects are arranged artfully throughout the space. Eileen responds to every communication promptly and helpfully. Also, the location is only about a mile away from Grand Avenue, where one can find lots of stores, cafes, and restaurants featuring diverse cuisines, including Afghan and Tibetan, and an outstanding grocery store, Kowalski's. I hope to rent this special apartment from Eileen again on my future trips to the Twin Cities.
