About this property

The Fabulous flamingo

Welcome to the Fabulous Flamingo, where Philomena will greet from her perch in the sunroom. We hope you’ll be enchanted by the timeless charm of this 100+ year-old building. Our beautiful two-bedroom, one-bath, fully furnished apartment is filled with stunning Craftsman details - from the cozy sunroom through to the living and into the dining room. With original, well-maintained built-ins and a coffered ceiling in the dining room, you’ll be delighted at the attention to detail.

**PLEASE READ: Between Mon, May 19th & mid-June 2025,  we’ll be making some exciting improvements in the building. During this period, you may experience construction noises between 7am & 4pm Mon-Fri. This means your evenings and weekends will be quiet. Luckily, you’ll find so much to do here in Saint Paul during this time. **

Thank you for your understanding as we enhance our beautiful building.

We enjoyed our stay here and loved the area to walk around and to shops and restaurants. The apartment is clean and comfortable. It was super hot outside for a couple days and the window ac units cooled things enough to sleep and be mostly comfortable. We would stay here again.

The apartment was everything we needed for our quick trip to Minnesota. Nothing fancy, but nothing missing. Great location. Parking on the street was fine (rental car was too big for the alley spot). So many air conditioners!

Easy stay in a great neighborhood

We arrived fairly late in the evening, instructions emailed from our host got us into the unit quickly and easily. Apartment is charming and as described in the listing. Our host Chan was available when we reached out, and checked in over email to make sure out stay was going well. The neighborhood is fantastic, with many options for dining at all times of day within easy walking distance - we did not need to move the car until we went to Minneapolis visit family. Would definitely stay again.

Very cute and charming. Could use some updating in some places due to it being an older building. Very clean though, and nicely decorated. Furniture was a bit uncomfortable. Host was very helpful and responsive. Overall, nice stay.. I'd stay there again.
