Sandy's really warm and kind and was helpful. My second-floor room was a nice, good-sized, private space with tall windows and an adjoining bathroom that was just mine. The house is quiet. Sandy is sometimes around for questions and we had chats, but she respects spaces too. The kitchen and other spaces are otherwise restful, attractive, with art on the walls that may be from Sandy's friends. House is around 6 small blocks to the main drag, Central, from which it is a half-block to some of the many art studios and galleries and local cafes and other things. Some other areas, like some coffee and the food co-op, are within 3-6 blks on the main street. Plenty of walkers around. Good place for getting to know NE Mnpls' art area, and not far by car to other areas. I also took the #10 bus into downtown, which took about 20 mins, not bad.
