Lovely and convenient house for the weekend
The house was clean, spacious, and very conveniently located to downtown St. Paul and public transit. Could not have asked for better communication or attentiveness from Linda, who was always available to answer all our questions. Thanks for a great stay!

Great house and location
We wanted a place to have family and friends join us without feeling crowded. Linda's place met all of our needs and then some. The kitchen was well stocked with everything that you might need for cooking and adding flavor to your meals. We will be back as some point in the future.

Great place
The house was wonderful and surprisingly spacious. The location is perfect and pretty much central to all places in the twin cities. The owners were quick to respond to any questions and provided help when needed. Basement laundry was clean and easy to use. Kitchen was easy for us to use and to cook a few large meals in.

Great location, super clean house
The description of this home is very accurate. It's a lovingly maintained older home in a quiet, pretty St Paul neighborhood. The house was sparkling clean and the kitchen was well stocked with cookware and dishes. It worked well for my family and me as a home base during Macalester graduation weekend! A couple things to note: This is an older home with vintage furnishings. A couple of the beds were not comfy (one was super hard, another very springy). The host takes great pride in the home and asks that you take care with the furnishings. This is a coasters-on-every-surface house. This wasn't a big deal for us, but might be for some people. The host is very attentive and checked in with us during our stay. She lives next door. This rental reminded me a bit of a B&B with the level of contact we had. Again, not a big deal but not everyone's cup of tea. Overall, it's a nice older home and worked well for our purposes.

Fantastic St. Paul House
We had a lovely stay at 115. The house was wonderfully clean (we were there during COVID) and in the beautiful Tanglewood neighborhood, near Macalester, as well as smoothies and pastries (even delicious gluten-free ones) on Grand. We brought most of our own food and it was easy to cook in the kitchen and play a game in the dining room. The power went out the first night we were there (thunderstorm), and the owner was quick to respond with flashlights, even though it didn't take too long to get the power back. A great place to be in the Twin Cities.
