Minneapolis in the summer is a city that wants you outside — festivals on the weekends, ballgames downtown, and lakes a short ride away. The trick to enjoying all of it without the hassle (or the hotel price tag) is having a comfortable home base right in the middle of everything. That’s exactly what Oakland’s on 9th is built for: a fully furnished downtown studio you can book for a night, a week, or a month.
Walk to the summer action
From our front door, the best of a Minneapolis summer is on foot or a quick light-rail hop away. Catch a Twins game or a stadium concert at U.S. Bank Stadium and Target Center, both just blocks away, or take in a show at Orchestra Hall. June brings the riverfront Stone Arch Bridge Festival and Twin Cities Pride, and you can check the whole season’s calendar at Meet Minneapolis. Come back, kick off your shoes, and you’re already home.
A furnished studio that actually feels like home
Every studio comes fully furnished with a real kitchen, free WiFi, all utilities, heat, and free laundry — no resort fees, no surprises. We’re set in a beautifully restored 1889 brownstone designed by architect Harry Wild Jones, so you get historic character with modern comfort. Choose from three tiers — Good, Better, and Best — to fit your trip and your budget, and the City View studios are perfect for unwinding after a night out at the Armory.
Stay a night, a week, or the whole summer
There are no contracts and no hassle — stay as long as you like. That flexibility makes us a favorite for travel nurses near HCMC and the U of M Medical Center, folks in town for work, and anyone relocating to Minneapolis who wants a comfortable landing pad while they settle in. Some units are pet friendly, too, so your furry travel companion is welcome.
Make it a true Minneapolis trip
Want to see the city the fun way? Hop aboard Minneapolis Trolley Tours for a scenic or ghost tour. Celebrating something special? The historic 300 Clifton mansion B&B and the haunted Pillsbury Club are unforgettable add-ons to a downtown stay.
Book your downtown home base
Festivals, ballgames, and lake days, all a short walk from your own furnished studio — that’s the easy way to do a Minneapolis summer. Check availability and book your stay at Oakland’s on 9th, or call us at (612) 314-5124.
