From the very beginning, when we first contacted Valerie about possibly staying at her place, she was friendly, easy to reach and replied promptly. Upon finally meeting her in person it remained that way; she is very accommodating and made us feel comfortable from the get-go. Our stay in her beautiful home was just what we were hoping for when we booked it, and exactly as advertised.
We were in town for a concert at the Excel Energy Center and her location was perfect for us -- only about a mile and a half away across the river, so getting there and back was relatively easy. During our stay we walked for fresh coffee at nearby shops in the mornings and walked to a couple of local restaurants for dinner. There was also ample parking on her quiet street.
Valerie was such a lovely and thoughtful host, and she absolutely helped to make our road trip that much more enjoyable. We are returning to St. Paul this summer and have already re-booked with her for that stay. 5 stars all around!
