Sunit was a very welcoming host. He was super flexible with check-in and our changing arrival time due to unforeseen circumstances. The house is in a lovely little neighborhood off of the University of MN campus and was within easy walking distance of Dinkytown.
The carpeting in the room was damp throughout and soaked in some places, and there was a distinct moldy odor. There has been some very heavy rainfall in the area of late, and I know many people have had water in their homes who do not normally, so I don't know if this is a common issue with the room or because of the extreme weather. It was raining when we arrived. Sunit did not mention the issue to me at all, but I believe he was aware of it because there was a fan in the room and industrial odor eliminator in the private bathroom, and the carpeting had significant water stains from many occurrences of being wet and drying out. We only stayed in the room for a short overnight so we made due, keeping our belongings off the floor.
Sunit also rents out an upstairs bedroom. I met the gentleman staying there that evening as we both happened to arrive back to the house at the same time after getting dinner. If you are sensitive to mold or claustrophobic (there is no egress window so minimal natural light) I would recommend checking out the upstairs bedroom he has listed.
