I stayed at Sally's second floor apartment for a month this winter and I would very highly recommend it. I brought my cat and I worked from home almost every day. It was very comfortable for humans and cats.
As the ad said, there was a lot of light. The apartment was spacious and well-furnished. The decorations are pleasant with inspiring messages, bird images, and pictures of Paris. The dining room has a table that can extend to be really big. The living room has a nice couch that I have managed to sleep on accidentally and on purpose. There's cable and a DVD player. The office has a good size desk and a chaise longue, and a large closet. The internet connection was reliable. I didn't write down the internet speed-- it wasn't the fastest numerically, but I didn't notice any problems working or watching videos. The bedroom is very spacious with a large bed, a very comfortable duvet, a large dresser, and some nifty stackable laundry boxes. The kitchen has a double sink, a good gas stove, and a really good selection of dishes and seasoning. There happened to be some non-perishable food items on hand, and that made my first day a lot easier. There is a washer and dryer in the unit that don't need coins, and there was a supply of detergent for me.
There was plenty of street parking. On snow days, you need to park on a different street, which isn't that hard since the apartment is on the corner. Even when I forgot to, there wasn't any ticket.
Sally was accommodating. She lives on the first floor. She said she'd adjust the heat however I'd like. When I came in, there was a sheet of paper explaining the city trash policy and parking policy. Sally was quite happy to answer questions, and she frequently checked in on how I was doing, and she bought refills of some things for me. She kept the sidewalks shoveled. Sally let me have overnight guests over once in a while and that was helpful with one unplanned weather stranding, and two visits from family. Just talk to her to decide on a reasonable amount of visits. Sally had two dogs and I was worried that that would cause my cat some stress and make it harder to sleep, but there was no problem there.
The location is good. I liked walking around the neighborhood. El Cubano restaurant is great. I was able to buy everything I needed in Robert St in West Paul. I went to the office some days in Eden Prairie, and visited people frequently in Cottage Grove and Plymouth. It was a good location for those trips.
