Great property location as it was minutes from everything (downtown, Mall of America, lakes/parks, restaurants). Steven and Katie were fantastic hosts and stayed in communication all throughout our trip. It was the perfect size for the family. If we are back out to the Twin Cities area, would 1000% rent again!

A Gem of a Place to Stay

Serenity Place is exactly that. A clean, safe, lovely, serene home away from home. Amidst the pressure and chaos of moving from one home to another over the past month, my husband, two dogs, and one cat have cherished Serenity Place and hosts Steven and Katie (and sweet little pooch, Addy) for the oasis of peace and tranquility they have provided. We are so grateful; Serenity Place has been our constant calm within the storm.

This is a perfect place to stay for us and our dog. Having a fenced in yard was really great. The apartment was very clean and the beds were comfortable. My only note would be that the kitchen could be a little bit better supplied with a large skillet, blender, etc. it was perfectly supplied for a long weekend, but might be challenging if staying for a longer time. Steven was a great host and was very responsive in following up with VRBO on our behalf when there was a hiccup with refunding our security deposit. Would highly recommend anyone stay here when visiting Minneapolis.

The property was extremely cleaned and worked well for us. I especially liked that the host provided access to different TV channels so we didn’t have to remember all of our login information to watch shows. The beds were very comfortable and it was a great surprise that there was front porch area off the second floor. Our host was great and easy to get in touch with. We also loved that the property was very centrally located. The bathroom was a bit tight, but I’m a sucker for a claw foot tub! It was also nice to have a fenced in yard because we did travel with our dog. Perhaps I didn’t read closely enough, but I didn’t realize that the unit was on the second floor. Our dog has never stayed in a property that had people below him and above him so that was a bit of a challenge for the dog.

My friends and I very much enjoyed our stay at Serenity Place. Steven and Katie were solicitous and responsive hosts. The unit is pleasant, clean, comfortable, and the kitchen well-provisioned. Older folks should note that the unit has a claw-tub shower, which requires a little more care and mobility getting in and out. Also about 12 stairs to reach unit, which was fine for us, but might not be for all.The house and neighborhood is very quiet, though not more than a 5 minute walk from Lake Avenue, which is one of the main thoroughfares. There is an Aldi and Target about a 15 minute walk from the unit, and Laune bakery (which is excellent) is 1.3 miles away on Lake. Though not especially close to downtown/restaurants, etc., we found it easy to Uber around.
