Excellent location, immaculately clean
The location couldn't have been better and the studio was very clean. The studio is exactly as it appears in the listing - no surprises. Walking distance to many great restaurants and shops. There was a little difficulty with the locks, but the hosts were pleasant and helpful.
This spot was the perfect home base for visiting family in the Twin Cities! Tucked into a peaceful residential neighborhood with charming older homes and big, shady trees, it felt super safe and welcoming. We loved how walkable everything was—grocery store just a few minutes away, trendy restaurants nearby, and easy access to beautiful parks, the Mississippi River, and the Science Museum.The room itself was a total oasis—quiet, cozy, and perched high up for extra privacy. The king-size bed (a rare find!) was incredibly comfortable with luxe linens that made it hard to get up in the morning. The whole space had a vintage, soothing vibe that made it easy to relax and recharge. We’d absolutely stay again!

The Nest Review
I had an excellent experience renting the nest for my elderly host family mom, who was visiting from New Mexico. The booking process was easy and quick, and the hosts (Kyra & Lucas) were incredibly responsive to my questions, making the whole process smooth from start to finish.The host guide they provided was very helpful; I shared it with my host family before her arrival so she could get familiar with the neighborhood, which she appreciated.The check-in was seamless, and the home was just as advertised—clean, cozy, and well-maintained, with all the essentials provided. The abundance of natural light flowing in from all corners added a wonderful touch to the atmosphere.The neighborhood is safe and peaceful, with fantastic restaurants and is just a short walk from the St. Paul Cathedral, making it a great spot for anyone visiting the area. The hosts were attentive and even checked on my host family mom, which was such a thoughtful gesture given her age.My host family had a wonderful time, and the experience was so positive that I’m even considering renting this place for myself in the future, despite living nearby! The check-out process was just as smooth, and I look forward to staying in touch with these fantastic hosts.
