The apartment is a work of art -- even nicer than it looks in the pictures, with lots of space. At the same time, it is wonderfully comfortable. Kimber has paid attention not only to the aesthetics of the place, but to the kind of little details that add to one's stay. There are outlets where you need them; the hair dryer has controls for temperature as well as air flow; there are lots of spices, cookware, utensils, etc in the kitchen. I've stayed in numerous self-catered apartments in the US and Europe over the years, and this is absolutely one of the very best I've been in.

The neighborhood is interesting and central. Several good restaurants, the Seward Coop grocery, and Zipp's Liquor (excellent wine selection) are a short walk. I easily used Uber, Lyft, and public transit to get around Minneapolis & St Paul, but can say this is a good location for getting to a variety of Twin Cities locations with a car. (There is off street parking.)

My last (but not certainly not least) reason for recommending this home is the hostess. Kimber is a delight. She's really thoughtful and attentive to her guests' needs, providing plenty of written info and hints to make one's stay better. She was also available to answer my questions, and make sure I had all I needed. She is careful to respect her guests' privacy and time constraints, and makes it easy for them to come and go as they please.

As it happened, I'm also an artist and was there on a weekend when Kimber didn't have to be away for an arts fair. We hit it off right away and ended up doing some sightseeing and having dinner together. I came home feeling like a winner: I stayed in a lovely home that gave me inspiration and ideas for redecorating my own house; and I made friends with a wonderful artist and conversationalist. Altogether a great Airbnb experience.
