Brenda's place was everything I was looking for and more. She let me stay with my small dog, and we both loved it.
Comfortable towels in the bathroom, along with all the soaps and other little touches you'll need.
Plenty of space to spread out. I suspect that 4 people could comfortably share the 2 bedrooms (I only used one).
There were fully functioning ac units in each bedroom, which managed to keep the entire place cool on a couple of unusually warm Minnesota nights.
The city lakes were just a couple of blocks one direction, and the charming Linden Hills commercial district (restaurants, shops, cafes) just a couple of blocks the other direction.
I gave Brenda's place 5 stars in every category, but would give 10 stars if I could!
