I think the single most striking observation during my stay with Sara and Dave is their commitment to a true Bed and Breakfast experience. Airbnb's I have stayed at have ranged from great to terrible, but this was the first time someone took the time for the full experience. This means that they personally made it their job to make sure your stay was comfortable - cooking breakfast in the morning to your liking, cleaning up after your dishes, and checking to see if your room was warm enough. All in all, it was a great experience.
About the location - it is a little north of the St Paul campus of the U of M. If you have a car - this place is ideal, with under 5-minute access to grocery stores, USPS, and Route 280 and I-35W, which will get you most anywhere in Mlps/St Paul. However, if you don't have a car, you should be committed to a method of getting to and from the location - which will most likely be taking a bus or the Connector to the St Paul campus, then walking. The hosts are hugely accommodating and so will likely be willing to plan pick-up and drop-off if needed somewhere reasonable.
At the time of my stay, Sara and Dave have a German Shepherd and a black cat. They are both very people-friendly and active (rare to see on the part of the cat). Sara and Dave were good about isolating the animals from my living quarters if I needed it, but on my part I was happy to have company. The cat would sleep on the bed with me, and I taught the dog some tricks (she's a smart dog - when you have treats).
Regarding the room - it's a cute little room with a desk, a bed, and a closet, with a bathroom shared with their other Airbnb room (I noticed that Dave and Sara intentionally avoid using it out of respect for my privacy). There is functional internet. I would not recommend a couple to stay in this room, however, as the bed is a twin. They should opt for the other room offered by the hosts, which has a larger bed.
In closing, this Airbnb stay was a comfortable, fun, and memorable experience which, by my volition, played a significant role in my visit to Mlps/St Paul. I felt at home, was fed, and made some great friends. I would strongly recommend people of all walks and travel preferences to try staying with Sara and Dave. You cannot go wrong!
