Great way to enjoy St Paul!
Great bottom duplex with all the amenities of home! Perfect for our family of three as a home base while enjoying all the attractions St Paul. Off street parking space was a huge bonus during a late season snowstorm. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend for a low key, relaxing stay. Neighborhood is safe, quiet, and convenient.

Perfect for a Mall of America Spring Break trip!
It was very clean and the trundle bed was perfect for our kids. The hosts are so communicative. We thought it was a fantastic value!

Great location
We were in town for a Minnesota United FC game, and this place was perfect! We were 10 minutes from the stadium, a jucy Lucy burger, donuts, you name it. Beautiful home with enough room for our family of 5 not to get on each other’s nerves. We will definitely be looking to stay here again next year!

Great location!
My family loves staying at this property. It was extremely clean and the location was wonderful. It was close to all the places we visited. The property owner also had great communication. If we are ever back in the area we would happily stay at this location again.

Perfect spot!
Stayed at Cottage in the City for the Boys HS Hockey Tournament at the Xcel. Perfect spot for it being less than two miles away - caught an Uber back and forth to the X so no worrying about parking downtown. Great breakfast spot right around the corner and the house was perfect for me and my two teenage sons. Hosts were fantastic to communicate with!

Charming in a great location!
The house is just far enough off West 7th to feel like you’re in an older residential neighborhood but close enough to walk to shops and restaurants. The property is very clean. There is a lot of original woodwork and lovely wood floors. Beds are comfortable. Bathroom is tiny but clean and functional ( except for that there is no plug in for the hairdryer). In general, you would be happiest if you brought an extension cord with multiple plug-ins for anything you must have close by at night (CPAP for me). It’s an old house, but I’ve stayed in new hotels that have no available plugs near the beds either. You can find most of what you need in the kitchen, although both of the smaller frying pans are very worn and should be replaced. We enjoyed our stay and would definitely rent again!
