My sister and I stayed at Bobbin House Studio for 5 nights, and we wish it could have been longer! The facilities and our hosts were truly wonderful. Steve was most accommodating, and because our planes landed in the Twin Cities in mid-morning, he allowed us to check in at noon instead of waiting until 3, which was really kind and most appreciated. The house itself is beautiful, comfortable, interesting, and elegant. Everything one could need is provided, both in the upstairs apartment and in the downstairs kitchen. The kitchen, in fact, is very well stocked, and Steve kept a sharp eye on things we were using (like coffee) and replenished them for us before we even asked. We couldn't have asked for anything more -- but if we had, I feel sure our hosts would have provided it!
The location of the Bobbin House Studio is also ideal. It's just off University Avenue, near the U, near downtown St. Paul, and convenient to the interstate system, the State Fairgrounds, and the Como Zoo and Gardens. It is on the Green Line, so one wouldn't even need a car to get to the airport or downtown. It is in a most charming and quiet neighborhood, and is close to a nice cafe also. Ideal in every way.
We hope to stay at Bobbin House again many times. This was our first time using Air BnB, but I know we'll not be staying anywhere else from now on.
