As described! Safe neighborhood, nice access to Iron Range activities. We were here for biking and had the shuttle drop us in Marble and we biked back; next day biked past Embarrass and shuttled back. Perfect! Ate in two nights and it worked great. I can’t overstate how clean it was. Oh…I brought an air mattress because, well, sleeper sofa, but the mattress on the sleeper was great! Highly recommended

The house was freshly remodeled, but the neighborhood felt sketchy and a bit unsafe. As soon as we pulled up we noticed a man sitting in his running car playing loud music and just staring at us. The surrounding houses were in bad shape and there is no privacy in the front or back yards. We parked in the back even though there was a construction sign blocking the alley, which made us feel a little better. It also smelled like wet dog as soon as we walked in. I understand that it is pet friendly, but it wasn’t the best welcome. So unfortunately, we would not recommend the Blue Jay.
