Our group found the home to be very nicely furnished, Beds were very comfortable and the baths were surprisingly updated! We appreciated the kind welcome from our host and we loved the character and cleanliness of the Victorian home. It was easily accessible to our downtown activities and to some amazing restaurants. We had a wonderful trip!

Jeff was very accommodating to our schedule and gave us recommendations on local shops. We especially loved that there was no hassle to checking out - no long list of things to do. The place was well decorated and well equipped. It had everything except the kitchen sink!

Everything about our stay was fantastic! The weather was great so we were able to enjoy the porch to its fullest too. Only bummer was not having enough time to explore everything we wanted.

We loved our stay at Portland Place! It was beautiful and exactly right for our family. The neighborhood was lovely and walkable and we saw a lot of families walking and biking in the area. We loved watching the sun come in through the old stained glass windows and send rainbows around the room! The front garden is so lovely and sitting on the porch in the evening was a lovely way to relax. Everything was clean and well maintained. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to visit Minneapolis!

Lovely and well kept up cottage/house. Easy check in and communication with the host. Lovely decor and sheets/bedding and house in a quiet residential area. It is a tad of a dark house on the interior but that’s a minor point.
