My second airbnb experience was excellent, thanks to Alison's advice about Minneapolis, her lovely apartment, and her absolute willingness to help out and answer all my questions. Alison's house is in a great neighborhood, with fun restaurants and bars within a a short walk. But the house is quiet and clean, perfect for people who want access to fun activities, but without lots of noise right there. Highly recommend making a trip to Minneapolis (which surprised me as a great fun city!) and staying at Alison's.
