Our host was excellent. Another host that advertises his place as "10 minutes from all the hot spots" cancelled on us at the last minute after failing to disclose crucial information about the accommodations we had reserved well in advance. We had to scramble to find something the day of our arrival. Wuinfred was extremely prompt in his communications, the place was exactly as described, and he and his mother made us feel extremely welcome. It is a little further out but if you have a car, it is easy to get to Minneapolis as the address is close to the highway. There are also some restaurants nearby and Wiunfred provides ample breakfast foods. Having our own bathroom and use of the kitchen was great. I was attending a conference at the university of Minnesota and the drive was 25 minutes under normal conditions and 30-40 minutes during the rush hour. My husband did not have the opportunity to use the bus but there is one into town. We would definitely stay with Wiunfred again.
