About this property

Upscale comfort . Walk to Mayo, trails, parks, shopping

2 Bedroom Spacious upscale 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 second floor. There are stairs so keep this in mind. Fully furnished with all kitchen items, bedding, towels. Laundry on site. Price includes everything including WIFI, parking, and laundry! ~Nice~ Also large screen ROKU smart TV's. . This apartment also has a private deck off of the kitchen.
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 the garden's and beautiful Minnesota summer nights.

I strive to make my guests as comfortable as possible, and I know I can not make everyone happy but I do the very best I can. Many people seem to not take the time to do reviews so here are some other reviews from guests who book from me on 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!

Relaxed stay for medical visit
Joanne was able to meet us on a slightly later schedule because of the length of time it took us to get to Rochester. It was so much better to stay here than get a motel for my medical visit to Mayo Clinic. It was roomier than the pictures showed, as well. It was very home-y and comfortable. Would definitely come here again.

A wonderful time.
Excellent time. Only problem was that my sister and I, who are both in our 70's, didn't take into account the stairs. That would be the only reason we would not use this unit again. The manager was there to meet us and there was a designated parking space for us and she showed us around the unit. Very well done. Thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Joanne

Host profile image
I have been in the property rental journey on and off for over 30 years. The past 6 years brought me back into it on a more full time basis.
My husband and I are also Foster Care providers for 4 adults so when I am not at the property tending to guests, or the gardens I am at home with my extended family. However, I am always available to take care of the needs of my guests.
For fun I like to make things, and fix things. :-) And, every single year, my husband and I ride to Sturgis and stay in the black hills.
I have met some extraordinary people from all over the world who have rented my properties. Some whom are repeat guests that I can call friends. My goal is that my guests are happy staying at my properties.

Why they chose this property

This particular property is a homestead of my family. It has 3 apartments of which 2 are available and the 3rd is under renovations for future rentals. It is located in the perfect location for all your shopping, entertainment, Mayo clinic needs. It also has the most fabulous flowering gardens (summer time) that you will find. Depending on which Mayo building you need to attend, you walk could be anywhere from 10-20 min walk. Or if you want to use Bus transportation, you only need to step out the door. Parking is free if you have a car.
I am somewhat flexible on check in and check out but you need to let me know in advance if you have special arrangements that don't meet my normal times. I know that patients that come here sometimes have flexible appointments and all you need to do is contact me with your scheduling and I will do everything possible to accommodate you!

What makes this property unique

Unique benefits are location, location, location... and comfort, decor, and someone who wants you to be happy during your stay. Just let me know your needs and I will do everything I can to accommodate you. Thank you for looking at my Properties. :-)

Respectfully,
Joanne
