I had a very pleasant experience staying in this home and getting to know a little bit of Minneapolis while I was attending a conference in the city. I was very comfortable in a clean and simply furnished room and bath off the kitchen. I had a chance to see a little bit of the unpretentious neighborhood, including a very good restaurant/cafe just around the corner from the house. Though I was at the conference most of the time, I enjoyed getting to know the family who were friendly and helpful in navigating the city. I appreciated the quiet and privacy of the place after a long days at the conference. The only drawback for me was the distance from the conference center. Getting there and back involved either taking cabs or getting rides - something I should have anticipated.
