I feel awful leaving a bad review but I feel as a seasoned traveler I must be truthful. I also feel honesty will help the host improve their property, and even though you cant please everyone, hopefully in the future he won’t have any more guests with the same complaints. Everything about this property was just terrible for me and my fiancé. Even our two year old child was uncomfortable. The pictures looked good, but within two hours we wanted to leave. I will admit our expectations are high, and I will also admit that I am a clean freak and a germaphobe however I have definitely stayed in Airbnb’s and other vacation rentals and been completely happy. All people have different standards, and unfortunately this place did not meet ours. First of all, this is located on a very busy street in a busy part of town. We are natives of the twin cities, not tourists and we know exactly where we are. If you are a tourist, then this may be ok for you but if you sleep lightly, then I would keep looking. You will hear traffic, police sirens and all sorts of noise all night long. If you’re looking for a home away from home, as a Minnesota resident, I would not chose this location. The feng shui of this place was all off for us. It was dark and dreary. The furniture wasn’t nice and one of the leather chairs was peeling badly and looked extremely tacky. The throw pillows stank and there were stains all over the rug in the living room. The heat was turned up to 73 and the place was still too cold for us to even remove our coats. This is an old house, I get that. But being that we have dealt with Minnesota weather the majority of our lives, we can handle cold. It should not be so cold inside a home that your toes are numb while wear socks. You should be comfortable in your pajamas inside a house. The place needs space heaters in the winter period. We went into the main bedroom to prepare to sleep for the night and immediately noticed there were stains on the pillow cases. The decorative pillows and the blankets smelled old and musty and we noticed hair that did not belong to us all over the bed. There was also animal hair. The listing does say animals are allowed but honestly any trace of anything that comes off of someone or something else’s body needs to be removed prior to other guests arrival. The second bedroom had so much dirt, hair and little pieces of trash under the bed, and pieces of I don’t know what all over the pillows, we just didn’t even want to be bothered with it, so we just shut the door and walked away. The host did send a cleaning lady to change the linens, but the linens she changed them to were scratchy...
