Good communication, easy check in and out, clean! Owner did a great job of accommodating our group for sleeping. Perfect 2 night stay.
This apartment was the perfect place to accommodate our family of six, and Amber included all kinds of extras - treats and necessary items. We were greeted on our arrival with a basket of goodies, and the ambiance of Christmas music and lights throughout the place. With four boys, ages 11-17, we were very pleased and relieved to find packages of toothbrushes and toothpaste (among all else that was provided) when we realized they forgot to pack their own. This was upon our arrival after 10:00p.m., when no other options were available. From the excellent communications to the thoughtfulness of our hosts, we were completely satisfied with our experience. We highly recommend this apartment for anyone needing a place to stay in the CoonRapids area!
Worked good
This downtown loft was in a great location to several little towns where we went antique shopping. Host went out of her way by brining up a recliner to amend the daybed seating to make it more comfortable. Very quiet at night. Beautiful area to enjoy the rolling hills and sunsets.
This apartment was great for our visit with family in Coon Rapids. Having a kitchen, washer/dryer and patio were extra bonuses. Walking distance to everything. Would definetely stay here again.
Very nicely updated, super clean, and comfortable. Thanks!
