Stayed for 3 nights in the summer. This is a completely renovated 1 bedroom apartment nestled away in the Northeast Arts District, just off the edge of North Loop/Downtown areas. (Travel time 2 or 3 minutes to downtown. 6-7 minutes to UMN.) Northeast Arts District is a solidly residential neighborhood with many circa early twentieth c. homes, sidewalks, small parks, and bike pathways. Lots of people biking and walking everywhere, very quiet at all times, some streets have more bike traffic than vehicle traffic. There are good bars and restaurants and some breweries along its main thoroughfares. (Do check out Hai Hai and Bauhaus -- can easily walk to both from apartment.) The apartment has brand new flooring, new paint everywhere, all new kitchen appliances, newer windows, new A/C units, in its recent conversion to an Airbnb space. The kitchen has everything you would need for apartment living, as well as a 4-chair dining table, and living room has a 50" HDR TV with cable services (as well as provided wifi). A lovely front room bay offers 4 angled window views of the street, where there is plenty of free non-permit street parking and street lights. The host, Mara, was quick and communicative and can provide good recommendations as a long-time NE Arts resident herself. You could easily spend most of your visit in the apartment itself, though if weather is accommodating you will want to be on the streets visiting the area's many gathering spots. It really doesn't get much better for a fully renovated space such as this one. The bed here, clean and comfy, may be softer than some prefer so keep this in mind. I appreciate that Mara thought to include umbrellas! Saved me on an unexpected storm. Highly recommend this stay.
