Comfortable, Quiet and Conventionally Located Near Mayo Clinic.

Like our previous stay at 1303 Retreat a few years ago, this home was once again comfortable, quiet, and served as our home away from home, fulfilling our needs. We appreciated the home’s close proximity to the Mayo Clinic and its location across the street from a Catholic Church.

Great Location

We were visiting from Kentucky and this location was perfect for going to Mayo. Everything was within a short distance and easy drive. There are tons of parks and we spent time fishing, went to Mall of America, and enjoyed eating at some great restaurants. The neighborhood was peaceful and house was clean and affordable. We didn’t really use the basement and just wanted comfortable and safe place to sleep. No complaints, simple little house, perfect for what we needed.

Needs to be deleted

Host would not answer messages are would answer late. There were no wash cloths and host said she would bring them and never showed up.It was very dirty. Hair was everywhere. Mouse droppings down stairs.I have never had such a horrible experience at a VRBO property. My daughter had appts at Mayo. Her and her husband had to clean just to stay.I can’t say enough about how disappointing and upset I am!!
