We chose the Grand property largely for its locale for where our daughter lives and the access to all of the wonderful surrounding amenities of greater St. Paul! Secondly, the apartment was spacious and had a full kitchen, perfect for creating our family Christmas recipes! The special touches were a welcomed treat, for example, lofty comforters on the beds, artwork on the walls and shelves and comfy furniture. The security of the place felt right too—a gated entry eased our minds. Parking was not a problem, even during a busy work week. Be sure your parallel parking skills are on point! Overall our stay was perfect in every way and we look forward to return visits!
