Our host was very accommodating! We arrived late but she was up and welcomed us into her beautiful home without any issues on the time. We had a great conversation and then we went upstairs to a super bedroom. The weather was foggy for most of our 5 day stay, so we couldn't see much out the windows, but on our last day we had a great view of the Minneapolis skyline! The room was very large and was nice and comfortable. She has a large jacuzzi tub in the bathroom, but when I went to fill it, we ran out of hot water, so it only filled it partway before it got cold. I forgot to tell her that. Sandie was in the middle of some construction up on the 3rd floor and we could hear some of the work going on but it really wasn't an issue since we were only there at night to sleep. We enjoyed Cat, he was very friendly. I liked the idea of removing your shoes at the front door, to keep the rest of the floors clean from mud and snow. Since this is her first year renting out her rooms, I thought she did a great job. Sandie told us if we needed anything to just ask, which we did. She had coffee and tea available but no breakfast but that was ok with us since we went out with our daughter, whom we went to visit, all the days we were there. We loved her house and highly recommend staying there! Oh and it is in a very nice and pretty quiet neighborhood too though you can hear the train go by that is on the other side of the lake every once in a while.
