Chris is a great host. He is helpful and responsive. The backyard was great for our dogs. They really enjoyed playing with his dog. The space is not very clean. It smells like you are in a basement, because you are. The bed is super firm. The neighborhood seems quiet and safe. Quick access to parks, city, Mall of America, airport, etc. Lots of sightseeing stuff within a 10 to 30 minute drive. Beware of parking your vehicle when going to parks - lots of reports of smash and grabs.
