Safe neighborhood and EASY, EASY access to Metro, which was key, for me. I didn't even have to rent a car; did Minneapolis/St. Paul by bike via NiceRideMN.
Amazing little space upstairs. A colorful retreat. The two window A/C units worked very well to cool off the two rooms, and the area was quiet at night. Sleep doesn't come easy for me, so I always appreciate that. Every light switch labeled, and very well-stocked kitchen for cooking. The host may be in and out of the kitchen at times, but you have the upstairs completely to yourself. Very helpful hosts; whatever questions you might have about the area, they'll do their best to answer. Interesting cities to explore, and I'm so glad I came!
