This is a wonderful place, located conveniently in a suburban rambler a nice, quiet Eden Prairie neighborhood but close to highways that can whisk you to other parts of the greater Mpls area. You have dedicated parking spaces off the driveway, and the entire basement (with your own entry) is yours and looks out on a yard that's planted and organized around attracting birds.
Though my visit was a winter one, in the summerbone could sit outside on a covered patio area to enjoy birdwatching. Even in the winter, you can see a lot of birds from the windows in the dining area.
I was impressed with how clean the place was, and how well appointed. The apartment is spacious, warm in the winter, comfortable, and has little touches like some conversation-starter games to play and a nice coffee set up (either by the pot, or Kuerig-style k-cups) to start your morning off right. The Wi-Fi is nice and strong in the main living area, so if you have work to do your connectivity is good. The host is very good about communication, too.
I thought the following summed up this host's approach - she has a snow scraper for your car hung on the fence at the parking spots - just in case you forgot to bring one yourself!
