The house was perfect for our needs (and nicer than the one I live in!) The location was very pleasant, right next to Lake Harriet. It was very clean and comfortable. We cooked there, and really enjoyed ourselves. We had a great time. The only advice I have is that you really do want to have a car at your disposal. If you do, getting around is a breeze.
Our host were very approachable, though we had no problems or issues.
