Artiera's place was just as described on a quiet street in a peaceful neighborhood with easy access to downtown. I live in the neighborhood and reserved her place for visiting family and would definitely do so again! Her basement lodging is clean and quiet. There is plenty of room for a family to spread out with a separate bedroom, sitting room and dining area. There's more than enough room to stash luggage or gear out of the way of the living spaces. The street has plenty of parking. Just a block away to the east is one of the best Ramen places in the city and a block to the west is an outstanding chocolate shop that also serves gelato. There's a playground a block to the north. Artiera's place is a great spot to relax after a long day's drive or a busy trip into downtown Minneapolis or St. Paul. I would definitely recommend to visiting family and friends!
