This is a fantastic place for a family reunion or several families to share. The location is right in downtown St. Paul with easy access to several freeways. We came to see our daughter attending Macalester, which is a short drive away.
There are three floors plus a basement with a large screen theater. Each floor has a bedroom and private bathroom with showers or showers plus tub.
The first floor garage also has a very good ping pong table which we used a lot during our family reunion. There is also a air hockey setup and lots of chairs to hang out in.
We spent most of the time on the second floor. It has a very large master bedroom and great bathroom, a washing machine/dryer in a walk in closet and a large common space with an open design kitchen. There are many comfy chairs for reading, watching TV, talking etc so this is a great common area. There is even a table large enough to do a jigsaw puzzle. The ceilings must be 15 feet high or more so the space feels very roomy. Lots of plugins for charging everywhere. The kitchen is very well equipped so we made most of our meals at home. There is a high end supermarket about a block away so food shopping is no problem.
The third floor has a bedroom and bath, a smaller common room and an outside deck. We spent a lot of time on the deck to enjoy the view and good weather.
There is an elevator that connects the floors. Each floor is relatively independent of the other floors, which provides some feeling of privacy when you need to "get away" form the in-laws.
The hosts were very responsive to any questions we had. Overall, we highly recommend Avo and Katie's place! I think it is the nicest place we have stayed at.
