You need to upgrade your toilets. Squatting on a tiny toilet is not acceptable. Just a thought. 🤔

Offsite management staff was first class from making reservations to assisting me on site despite accidently locking myself out of my room. Totally my bad. Thanks to some helpful guests with cellphone access, I was back in my room and on my way in less than an hour. Loved the location of the property. Beautiful neighborhoods and easily within convenient walking distance to Congdon Park. Only downside I saw was the bldg could use a freshen up on the exterior. It's a beautiful home. Why not maintain it as well as the interior? Definitely a great place to stay in East Duluth.
