We had a great stay here! Being February, the weather was not so great. They were actually under a winter storm warning when we arrived. That made the heated garage a fabulous part of our stay! Had we been parked outside, we would have had to dig out like several others we saw without a garage to park in. Check-in was not a problem for us. If you follow the check-in instructions closely, you should have no issues. The apartment building was very secure and really quiet. We heard nothing of other residents while in the suite. The whole look of the suite was very nice. It was very spacious and suited us perfectly. There were lots of local restaurants nearby which we took full advantage of. The University of MN is about a 5-minute drive. It's a great distance if you have an event you will be attending there, but not so close that you will deal with noise or traffic issues from that area. We will definitely stay here again when we are in town.
