Alison's place was great for our stay up in MSP! Uptown is a super lively neighborhood but the house is on a nice quiet street. We loved the ability to head a few blocks to the lake or up to restaurants and breweries or even just hanging out on the lovely front porch.
The house itself is perfectly sized for 4 people and despite being a shotgun, provides ample privacy when traveling as a group. By far my favorite place I've stayed in Minneapolis in my years of visiting
