Ride the Bus!
We agree with the points of all the other glowing reviews you'll find here. Plus this: We were so happy to discover there's an excellent 10-minute connection to the Mall of American on Metro Transit (city bus) Route 515! The stops are just a block from the apartment, on 66th Street. Arrival is at the new transportation hub at MOA, which also serves other bus routes and the Metro Blue Line (light rail). The Blue Line has very convenient stops at both airport terminals, Fort Snelling, Minnehaha Park, U.S. Bank Stadium, Nicollet Mall and skyway, and Target Field. And at all stops downtown you can transfer to the Metro Green Line which connects to all the major tourist destinations in St. Paul.
My wife and I just left our car parked at the apartment for all the days we were there, and went to everywhere we wanted to visit by bus and light rail.
