Nicely Furnished Main Floor. Walk to Mayo Clinic, trails, parks, shopping

2 Bedroom Spacious apartment in the heart of downtown Rochester. Modern comfort within walking distance to Mayo Clinic Campus, restaurants, shopping and more. On bus route if you don't want to walk. Located on the 1st floor.There are 3 stairs to get from the front door to the apartment door. Fully furnished with all kitchen items, bedding, towels. Laundry on site. Price includes everything including WIFI, parking, and laundry! (you provide your own detergent) ~Nice~ Also large screen ROKU smart TV's in living room and both bedrooms. .
Mayo Clinic Campus is an easy 10-20 minute walk depending on which building you need to go to. Grocery shopping, Restaurants, Walgreens, salons, Brewery's and more are within 2-3 blocks. A pretty park is also within 2 blocks.
During the summer months, you can relax in the evenings in the backyard and enjoy our beautiful Minnesota summer nights.

I strive to make my guests as comfortable as possible, but I know I can not make everyone happy, and many people don't take the time to leave a review so here are some reviews from guests who book from me at another site.

Joanne was there to meet us the day we arrived and gave us a brief tour of the apartments features. She was readily available by phone/text when we needed her. Beds were comfy and the TV was a great feature.

What Cheryl loved about your listing:
I liked the convenience to be able to walk to the Mayo Clinic at St Mary's Hospital where my husband was admitted for surgery. The location close to Walgreens, the Hy Vee grocery store, restaurants, and convenience stores was also nice. After his discharge from the hospital it was nice to be able to walk on the paved running/biking path nearby. The Roku TV was very nice too since we were limited in our ability to go outside much.

Joanne was wonderful! I booked the apartment a couple months in advance and we kept in contact throughout the entire process. My boyfriend and I were visiting because he had appointments at Mayo Clinic. The apartment was indeed cute and cozy!! It was perfect for what we needed- commuting back and forth from Mayo, preparing a few meals, and even renting movies from the red box at Walgreens right down the block! The little "fire place" kept us plenty warm and we even could do laundry here. Joanne met us when we arrived and gave us a little tour of our new temporary home. She also encouraged us to contact her if we needed anything at all. The apartment was clean and safe and I would definitely recommend anyone to stay at Joanne's if they're visiting the Rochester, MN area. Thanks again! :)

What Ariel loved about your listing:
Thank you again Joanne. It was a pleasure meeting you and staying at the apartment!

I really enjoyed my stay. Joanne was very helpful and has a lovely place! I would definitely recommend staying here.

January 2016

Joanne was a great host! Month's stay flew by. Had to stay an extra day and Joanne was incredibly accommodating. The apartment is right beside good restaurants and supermarket and only a short walk to St Mary's Hospital and to downtown. Would stay again any time!

What Aisling loved about your listing:
Thanks for everything!

November 2015

I stayed in Joanne's apartment again for a month (Sep-Oct 2015) during my treatment at Mayo. As previously, Joanne has been quick to respond, available for whatever I needed and made me feel at home. I could not wish for a better host and a nicer place to stay in a Rochester.

October 2015

Joanne immediately welcomed us when we arrived in Rochester. As soon as we saw the apartment, we realized it was better than we could have hoped. The kitchen was well-equipped and the environment was cozy. It was excellent to have access to a washer and drier right outside our door. Just a few steps farther was the only grocery store you will ever need. If you are staying for the Mayo Clinic, the core campus is only a short walk away. Joanne was also nice enough to lend us two bikes for our stay. We highly recommend this apartment.

What Harry loved about your listing:
Thank you Joanne for creating such a lovely living space. I had a great time in Rochester. -Cliff

August 2015

Joanne was very friendly and helpful. The apartment was clean and comfortable. Good wifi connection. It is in a nice neighbourhood and good location - we had a car for some of the time and some of the time we didn't but the location worked well in both cases. We stayed for several weeks and this was definitely the best option for us in Rochester in terms of price, comfort and convenience.

What Mark loved about your listing:
Space and location

My husband and I stayed in Joanne's apartment for 9 days while I was undergoing testing at the Mayo Clinic. Joanne has been awesome in every possible way - she responded to my texts and calls immediately and greeted us herself upon our arrival. She is very pleasant, and has renovated and decorated this place with so much love and care. The apartment is exactly as shown in pictures - clean, neat, and has absolutely everything for a most comfortable stay. The location is amazing - absolutely everything is within a walking distance. I will have to come back to Mayo for follow ups later this year and I will definitely first check if this apartment is available. Outstanding experience in every way.

April 2015

So with that, I hope that if you are visiting Rochester, you give my place a try. I do not think you will be disappointed.

Thanks for checking out my space!

Great Stay in Rochester
We were looking for a comfortable place to stay during our trip to Rochester and the Mayo Clinic. The location put us within a short drive to Mayo and having a close grocery store, restaurants, and Walgreens, was a plus. Joanne is a great host and responded to our questions quickly. We would definitely stay here again!

We came for Mayo appointments and didn’t want to stay in a hotel. This place worked very well for us. It was a short easy drive to Mayo. Hyvee and Walgreens were very close by. We will be staying there again when we come back to Mayo.

Short term stay in Rochester
We rented this apartment because it had 2 large recliners, high speed internet, a fully equipped kitchen, and minimum steps to get in and out of the apartment. The apartment fit our needs perfectly. The bed was very comfortable, and we were very comfortable for the 2 1/2 weeks of our stay. Thanks JoAnne for renting to us. Wish we could’ve rented it again for our next visit.

Perfect for Mayo clinic appointments
I had a very good stay at this apartment. It was so very close to both Mayo clinic campuses. It really made things easy to navigate the many appointments that I had. We unfortunately we're not able to take advantage of the bike trails that were so very close other than a quick walk, but they seem very nice and well taken care of. The backyard was a joy. Nice to sit out and enjoy the fresh air. Thank you for Joanne for letting us stay.

This was a very nice property to stay for our 9-day trip. The beds are very comfortable, there is a full kitchen, and the living room furniture is comfortable as well. Well. There is a TV in each of the bedrooms and in the living room as well. Private access and very quiet neighborhood. Is property is extremely close to all of the mail clinic, hospitals and medical facilities. A gracious host, you won't go wrong staying at this property. Thank you for everything.

In Rochester for surgery
Very comfortable stay while in Rochester for surgery and hospital stay. The weather was great so made for pleasant walk to Methodist hospital and walking paths. The TVs use Roku streaming devices so it is confusing for us not used to streaming! I did manage to find most of the shows and sports I was looking for however. Joanne is a very gracious host and easy to communicate with.

Clean, comfortable and all amenities! Great location!
This two bedroom was cozy, but roomy enough and very comfortable. It's in an older home and has beautiful architecture. The space was CLEAN and very well appointed—everything you could want. I was there for two weeks for a trip to MAYO and could not have asked for better. It was a 4 minute drive to Mayo Main, 2 minutes to St. Marys and very close to restaurants, breweries, grocery store, etc. This place rocks! I will be staying here again for my surgery. Joanne was terrific and a great communicator. FIVE STAR!!!

The Best Buy in all of Rochester
We have just completed a 5 night stay in this wonderful apartment. It is exactly as pictured and supplied with everything you would need during your stay. The new washer and dryer are wonderful and such a convenience when one is traveling. There are shops within easy walking distance and the apartment is a mile from the Civic Center where my conference was held. It is also very near the Mayo complex for those needing that service. Joanne is an excellent communicator we have used VRBO all our the world and this is one of our best finds. It is not a new building but it is in a safe neighborhood, off street parking and kept immaculate. Will certainly stay again if we are back in the Rochester area. Thank you.

Great location, quirky house
House was in a GREAT location and check in process was easy. Bottom door handle had quite a bit of wiggle room, but between that and deadbolt felt really safe. This is a shared house with wooden floors; there will be creaking and popping but we never heard anyone else talking, just occasionally someone walking or turning on water; it did not bug us. My only negatives: We booked this listing specifically because it had a washer and dryer. When I went to use them on Tuesday at around 5:00 PM, it didn’t work. It turns out, the filter was missing and the host told me I must have removed it. There are three “apartments” that have access to the washer and dryer and it wasn’t me. They later found the filter outside on a trash can, so the host could check the ring camera and see it wasn’t me. Then she said it wasn’t the filter that was the issue. There was no dryer from 5PM on Thursday to Tuesday at 2:36. I asked for a partial refund because of the time, money, and headache of having to locate a laundromat, do laundry, etc (while husband is in hospital for cardiac surgery). She replied that she couldn’t/wouldn’t and that s*** happens.I felt that the over two hours I spent locating a laundromat and washing laundry (in addition the the money spent) warranted some sort of partial refund. Also: shower has a wood-cased window and tile that is broken/peeling away. It looks like a hotbed for moisture and mold (no vent in bathroom).

A nice stay.
Yes overall it was clean. The condition of the utensils was something else. Some items were greasy, the stove was greasy, the coffee pots were nasty. The Keurig sounded like it was trying to die and tasted like plastic. We cleaned the regular coffee pot. It was also nasty but we tried to clean it. Probably could use a vinegar cleaning. The heat was also questionable. It appeared that someone came in and turned the furnace down even further. We turned it back to where it was. Everything else was fine. Driveway cleaned and walkway also cleaned while we were at the hospital. TV, bathroom, bedrooms, were fine. Everything fine except for those 2 items. Thank you for a nice stay.

If you or a loved one visiting Mayo Hospital, this house is the perfect location for you. It also offers shopping. There’s a Walgreens on the corner a grocery store across the way you have everything right at your fingertips and you don’t even have to move your car. You can walk everywhere. Also, the host Joanne was exceptionally helpful

We stayed for 3 weeks and a few days. It was 5 minutes to St Mary’s at the Mayo Clinic. We made all of our meals and the times we had a question Joanne responded right away. I had a power wheelchair and we were able to charge it outside. So that worked for us. If we ever come again to Rochester Minnesota we would definitely look into staying here.
