I live in South Minneapolis and booked Paul and Karen's home for my out-of-state parents to stay during their recent visit. The location (even if it hadn't been chosen mainly due to proximity to my home) is excellent, with access to all the basic needs (restaurants, bakeries, coffee, shops, etc) just a few blocks away. The home itself was spotless on arrival, the rooms were well appointed, the rooms bright and with lovely neighborhood views from the corner lot. We had various things come up before and during the stay that required touching base with Paul (not problems with the home; things like weather/snow removal questions, etc), and responses were almost immediate, courteous and helpful. My mother has mobility issues and was able to manage the very short walk from driveway to back door, including the steps. The main floor bathroom is typical for the age and type of home, on the small side with a porcelain tub, which was a bit of a challenge for her but we managed. We spent several evenings at the house including my small children and they were able to play with plenty of space, including utilizing the plush comfortable carpeted room upstairs (we actually had to spend one evening overnight ourselves due to a basement flooding issue in our own home). We will definitely be keeping Paul and Karen's home in mind for future reference for out-of-town guests whom we cannot accommodate at home. A great week!
