This was our 3rd stay at the "nest". Mary Antonia always takes the time to meet us at the door and chat with us about anything new in the "nest" or events in the city. The "nest" is very clean and exudes a feeling of calmness. When I reach the top of the stairs and see the beautiful wood floors, leather sectional and chairs, high ceiling, and rows of windows facing all 4 directions, I just want to exhale - I have come home after a busy day in the city. Everything adds a feeling of comfort to the "nest"; the gas fireplace, live plants and flowers, thick terry towels, cozy throw and pillows on the sofa, icemaker, a home baked treat on the table ( this time Mary Antonia baked ginger scones-YUM). The bed and bedding are very opulent-we always sleep well at the "nest". The shower is very invigorating with two showerheads: a large, forceful showerhead and a separate individual hand-held head. The "kitchen" area has all the dishes, cups, glasses and tools you would need to make a snack or prepare beverages. ( Mary Antonia has provided teas, coffees, and cocoa) Every visit we find that she has added a little something new to make our stay more comfortable and convenient. It is a quiet location but just blocks from Grand Avenue. It takes about 15 minutes to get to the MOA, Airport or University of Minnesota. We will be staying at the "nest" again.
