We rented this Airbnb and were extremely happy with it. It is well laid out with a comfortable living room, a middle room with a desk and a convertible couch. The hosts have added many personal touches to make it homey. The kitchen had all the basics needed for cooking. There were eggs and other items placed there to help us settle in. Scott even brought up a container of milk for my wife.
The bed and bedroom might be too small for a longer stay, but we found it just right for the 28 days we were there. The bathroom was nice with plenty of storage for both of us. The back balcony overlooks a backyard full of plants, including vegetables we could pick, and a pond with a bridge. The apartment can be kept cool with two window AC units if needed. There are plenty of outlets to keep all your electronic devices charged.
The apartment is located near Uptown, several lakes and bike paths, including the Midtown Greenway. There are plenty of museums and historical buildings in close proximity. Downtown is a short ride away, but you can walk to most of Uptown.
We were traveling with our dog Hanz and were happy to find a pet friendly place and with pet friendly hosts. The neighborhood is a nice place to walk your dog. In addition, the many nearby parks and lakes are great places for walkies.
Scott and Helen were gracious hosts who made us feel comfortable and welcome for our entire stay. Their Airbnb will be the first place we check for availability next time we plan a trip to the Twin Cities.
