When I was reading through all of the great reviews for this place, I thought, “Seems overhyped. I’m probably going to be disappointed.” Let me tell you, I was NOT disappointed!! The house is gorgeous—well-designed, full of light, beautifully finished, with everything you need for a perfect stay. From the heated floors to the chef’s kitchen to the endless sources of natural light, this place is the very definition of sanctuary. And Mette is what every Airbnb host should aspire to be—thoughtful, knowledgeable, and an excellent communicator. Any time I had a question, she had a response within minutes. Definitely check with her before you pack, because you won’t need to bring much of anything! The kitchen has enough staples to make a week’s worth of meals, and the bathroom is stocked with virtually everything a guest might need. As a family with young kids, we especially appreciated the in-home laundry. It’s always nice to go home with a suitcase full of clean clothes! We also enjoyed her library of books. In sum, it was a perfect stay that completely lived up to the hype. We will be staying here every time we come to Minneapolis from now on!
PS—Special thanks to Mette for letting our children do an Easter egg hunt in her back yard. :)
