It’s a tired little house with a bit of character that sleeps 4 and 2 but not 6 people well since the property is split into two separate units. It’s perfect as a place to sleep but not a lot of indoor space to host all 6 people. All things considered, it was a great location and close to everything we planned to see in the Twin Cities.

Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the location and found it convenient for exploring the Twin Cities. As shown throughout our listing, Hawthorn House consists of two private apartments within the same home, which allows groups to enjoy separate living spaces while staying together under one roof. Many families and friends appreciate that balance of privacy and shared accommodations. We appreciate your comments and will continue investing in updates to keep the home comfortable and welcoming.
You can't ask for a better location. So near to a lake, walking path, conservatory, a zoo, and beautiful gardens around the neighborhood. Bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchen are very good. Bathroom in first floor drains very slow. More space for dining and a table to play games would be helpful. We also were able to find places to eat within walking distance (15 minutes or so). We also saw public transit around the area. Access to the managers was easy and prompt. Please check with them before renting as far as upstairs air conditioner, there were 2 but one of them didn't work well. So the last night upstairs was rough. You will need to be ready to tolerate the sound of cargo trains which transit on the side of the property day and night. Saturday into Sunday was quieter. Some things to improve? Yes. Location is wonderful? Yes. What about the trains? That one is not going away.Thank you for helping our stay and time in MN.

Thank you for staying with us! It was a pleasure hosting you. We really appreciated your communication and how well you cared for the property throughout your stay. We'd be happy to welcome you back anytime and would gladly host you again. Safe travels!
Great location close to everything we needed. The ability to have grandparents upstairs and parents and grandkids in the lower unit was wonderful. We didn’t use the outdoor amenities, but it would have been nice to have a bonfire if the timing was right. The kitchens were equipped with coffee, creamer and sugar so there was no need to chase out in the morning for a caffeine boost. If we would have wanted to cook in, the spices, oils and lots of cooking utensils were available. The only issue we had was table seating was not enough for the four staying in the lower unit. We were able to improvise, but a larger table would have been nice. Kids sitting on the stools was lot ideal but that is a minor complaint.
