We stayed at the Downtown in Stillwater, MN over three nights in June 2020. Overall, we were disappointed and would not recommend this place to our friends.
Pros:
Great location right in the middle of Stillwater, easy walk to all downtown restaurants/bars, St. Croix River lift bridge, and hiking/bike trails.
Good sleeping capacity for a family of five with three queen beds.
Cool historical building.
Cons:
Not clean. The carpets were not vacuumed adequately (Doritos bits on living room floor, etc.), hand towel and bed sheets were discolored/stained.
Tiny bathroom with cramped toilet, and a pretty gross fabric curtain separating toilet/sink from rest of bathroom. Liquid soap dispenser in bathroom was not working, so we used the one from the kitchen.
Mattresses were poor (wife felt like she was sleeping on a box spring)
Smelly (musty and stale)
Old carpets (they crunched underfoot)
Dirty towels left in washing machine
Strange large window that opens onto the hall from the second bedroom, could have added a curtain for privacy.
To be honest, we tried to spend as little time as possible inside the place during our visit to Stillwater. For the price we paid ($300/night), we expected a lot more. I hope this review is helpful for other travellers as well as the host.
