My wife and I are really enjoyed staying here. We came with a rental car which made it easy to get around and explore Minneapolis. Elise was a perfect hostess, cheerfully answering our many questions, and giving us good information. We stayed first one night before the Thanksgiving weekend, and enjoyed staying there so much that we stayed again 3 nights on our return trip and would gladly stay again if and when we come to Minneapolis again. We had the whole downstairs part of the house more or less to ourselves and really enjoyed the spacious dining room, well equipped kitchen, and living room. As we were there in the latter part of November and had quite a lot to go and get done by using our rental car, we did not really have time to explore the immediate neighborhood. But we were quite pleased with the ease of parking and that generally it was a very quiet, perhaps older residential area, and not far to drive for dining out and for shopping.
