The space is lovely and spacious, and (though in the basement) not basement, i.e. not damp, not thrown-together, not at all uncozy). It includes a private entrance in a lovely older home, in the hip, friendly Linden Hills neighborhood, not far from downtown, full of parks , and only a little over a block and a half to good restaurants, home-made ice cream, coffee shops, galleries etc. The room is very comfortable, with a bed with all the amenities (cotton sheets, fabulous pillows). There's a kitchenette (small fridge, microwave, coffee and tea makers, cutlery, bowls and plates, cups and mugs), supplied with coffee, teas, cereal, milk, fruit, etc. The in-suite full bathroom has a tub/shower. There are two comfy new armchairs facing the fireplace, and a drop-leaf table for meals and computer work etc. Linda has a cat who lives upstairs; for the cat-allergic (like me), there was no trace of kitty allergens in the very clean house. Our dog Rosie was welcomed, and loved walks in the neighborhood with all the local dogs to meet and greet. Linda herself was kind, thoughtful, helpful, and great at communicating with us. An excellent stay and a very good value.
