About this property

Gigi's Villa

My place is located in the Beautiful area of Tangletown in Minneapolis. It is a quiet neighborhood that is close to everything – 10 minutes to the airport, downtown, and MOA. It is walking distance to Wise Acre restaurant, Tangletown Gardens, and other restaurants/bars. Half a block to public transport and bike trails. It is a comfy, two bedroom one bath unit on the top floor with high-speed Internet and Roku TV. Tons of charm built in the 1920s with modern amenities. We provide two retractable bikes that you can bike to Pav that go around three lakes in Minnehaha Creek.

The property was very clean and check-in was easy. We had an electrical problem which was fixed in minutes! We had a very warm day and there was no air conditioning, but a fan helped.

Cozy andinviting

This was a pleasant place to stay. It was located centrally to everything we did on our 5 day stay. Beds were comfy and things nicely cleaned. Our host responded quickly to emails and everything was clearly communicated prior to our visit.We will definitely stay again on our next trip to Minneapolis/St. Paul

Great place for a home base for a 3 week stay in MN (we're orginally from MN and lived in the same area). Loved the location and proximity to all the places we wanted to go. We frequented all our favorite restaurants (and discovered a new one nearby - Wise Acre), walked around Lake Harriet every morning and along Minnehaha Creek, visited the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis Institute of Art and took in a play at the Guthrie. Brenda was an excellent communicator with us. Hopefully, we'll stay here in the summer of 2026 again!

Close to everything

We were in town for a concert and chose Gigi's for the location. We were no more then 10 minutes for everything we wanted to see with easy access to the freeway to get us there and back. Communicating with the host was easy. The unit was much larger than expected. It was clean and stocked with all the basics you would expect. The beds were comfortable and we slept well. The neighborhood is quiet and well maintained. Gigi's is the perfect stay for a family looking to see what Minneapolis has to offer.

Cozy 2nd level unit

The check-in process wad easy and communication with the host, Brenda was excellent. She was quick to answer any questions or concerns that we had. We knew it was a 2nd level upstairs unit and the place was clean and cozy. However, the place was a little older and kind of chilly at times, and the floor boards were squeaky so we tried our best not to make too much noises. Not sure if the older heaters worked or not but we didn't have any thicker blankets to utilize to keep warm. *Please bring blankets with you!* There were only 2 thin blankets in the bedroom closets. Also, the bathroom was a bit tiny. Only one person could go in and out of there at a time so the four of us had to take turns. The kitchen was also tight to get in and out so we were limited to cooking. But there was a large dining area with table and 6 chairs and the two couches were comfortable to sit on and watch TV. We noticed the WiFi worked very well and I was able to get my work done on a daily basis. The only downfall was that the downstairs rude guest and his dog who kept us up at times with the dog barking numerous of times and he would purposely parked his vehicle right smack in the middle of the front off street parking. He took up the space so we had to park our car about one or two houses down. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there.

I'm so glad you enjoyed your time! For guests who like it a little warmer, we do have additional heaters in the unit. I wish you would've asked me. I could've let you know or we could've turned the temperature up. Also, the guest has moved out from the downstairs unit. It is usually a pretty quiet space. Thanks for towing your car as well!
