The home is in a beautiful neighborhood with many trees and lovely landscaping. The yard has seating and bean bags for a relaxing outdoor experience! The interior was furnished with items appropriate for a historic home. The decorating was tasteful and included artwork for sale by local artists! The owners were friendly and welcoming.
We loved our time in this beautiful home. Everything was clean, cozy, and as described. We were within walking distance of restaurants, parks, St Paul's Cathedral, and a market. The front porch was perfect for sitting and having our morning coffee while admiring the fall leaves. The sweet owners left an activity book for our 9-year-old, which was a lovely touch! It's a charmer and we will be back.

Comfy and Cozy
I stayed for two nights with a friend. It was nice having our own rooms. Overall, the unit was super clean and cozy. The kitchen was well sticked with dishes, there is a real dining room table for meals. The couch and chair were so comfy, I was surprised. The beds were firm, but the bedding was fantastic, I appreciated the down comforter. The clawfoot tub was amazing. I would totally stay here again.

Daughter visit and game
I had a wonderful visit with my daughter and went to see the USWNT play China. The place was wonderful — restful, beautiful, great back yard. I have always enjoyed walking the neighborhoods and Cathedral Hill is a great place for walking. A grocery store is a 5 minute walk away as well as a great coffee shop. Loved my visit and will definitely be back.
Loved my stay. It was quiet and restful. The bed was super comfortable. the entire place was clean. Easy walk to grocery store. Owners were on site (upstairs). Nice to know they are there but not overbearing. Had a great weekend visiting my daughter.

Nice
Nice two bedroom unit in the heart of Saint Paul. Plenty of on street parking and the unit is nicely equipped. There is some amount of noise transfer between units which is not unexpected in an older home. A printed copy of information on the unit, including Wi-Fi and check out procedures. In addition to things in the surrounding area would be helpful, especially because evolve does not share all of the same information inside of the Vrbo app and that makes it frustrating to navigate.
