jennifer’s apartment was the perfect spot for the two of us to set up shop in preparation for our friend’s wedding. jennifer was very accommodating with letting us check in early so that we had plenty of time to get ready for the wedding. the flat was spacious, had lots of options for good lighting, and provided all amenities we could have asked for. the bed was very luxurious, and the futon was probably the least objectionable futon i’ve ever slept on. i admit i was extremely tired the night i slept on it, but i slept like a baby. the second night we swapped sleeping arrangements, and unfortunately the thin walls paired with weekend night street noise did keep us up for most of the night. jennifer kindly provides earplugs and a white noise machine, but i personally don’t benefit from those. otherwise, the welcome note jennifer left had clear instructions for how to use the heating and cooling, how to access the wifi, and where to find extra linens. the place was clean and well maintained, and it felt like a lot of effort was made to ensure guests felt well taken care of and provided for. do note the wooden staircase in the photos must be climbed in order the enter the apartment. the stairs are not as rickety as they initially appeared to us but still perhaps not for the faint of heart! we ended up managing just fine though, even in our wedding heels, so definitely not a huge concern. we were very near to a plethora of cute restaurants and cafes, with lots of vegan and vegetarian options just steps away. a slightly longer walk offered access to an even more abundant selection of all manner of cuisines—we wish our stomachs could have accommodated our trying even more than we were able to! really sweet central location. we enjoyed our stay very much, and look forward to visiting minneapolis again soon.
