Full week stay.
The location is convenient, but unfortunately the parking isn’t. You have to move your vehicle for the overnight hours. The apartment was clean- small- but it had the basics needed. I’m not fond of tv streaming channels- there was no cable. The owner was communicative- very helpful and responded quickly.

We stayed at Nick’s place for a month and a half and had a wonderful experience. The location was perfect—right downtown with easy access to the lake, park, restaurants, and shops, all just a short walk away. The rental was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with all the essentials we needed. Nick was a great host, always helpful and quick to respond to any questions. We’d definitely recommend staying here and would happily come back again!

Was in the area for work
The hotels do not offer much for a room with a kitchenette, so a VRBO was the next best option. Best stay EVER! Location was awesome!

Enjoyed my stay.
The location is central to downtown Albert Lea. It’s convenient for shopping and eating at Jakes Pizza and Taco King. Both have excellent food!
Short walk to the lake and park… I love my hometown;)!
