Apt #3 (upstairs) is in good condition. I gave the owner 3 minor items that needed fixing when I left, but overall, it’s what is stated on the website.
Positives - it’s got two bedrooms, one bath, kitchen and living room. The internet worked well before a weather event. There are two Wi-Fi’s, so if there is an issue, there is a backup. If you need to go to Mayo, it is an easy 1 mile walk (one way). It was a perfect distance to get some exercise. The apartment is very close to Hy-vee grocery store and there are many restaurants close by that I would recommend (see ratings on Yelp). Easy access to highway 52 and the Twin Cities are only 1 hour & 20 minutes away. I found the cost of the apartment was about 1/2 of a hotel and it had space for 2-3 people. Building is quiet and is a safe place to stay. The clothes washer and dryer are large units and do a good job.
Negatives - it’s an older building and there is a standing A/C unit that sits in the living room but is only needed during warm summer months. It is effective, but noisy. It also is a little difficult to push the A/C into the far back bedroom. Three fans were provided. The basement has a pretty low ceiling. I am 6’2” and had to bend over to move in the basement. Workspace is limited. I used the kitchen table as my location for my computer work station. The chairs are functional but not necessarily comfortable for an 8 hour work day. Overall, this rental was a great value and I will stay again. Thank you.
